I haven’t been an Apple’s fan for very long, close to 3 years? But the impact is much more than any other tech. Steve Jobs, founder of Apple, is one of the most successful leader in tech world. He is not just charismatic, but also a visionary. But we just lost such a great person.
Here’s a quote from Steve Jobs at 2005:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
Check out the actual video of him giving the speech:
Truly amazing speech right? I can’t held but to cry after watching. He is just so special. But I’m not the only person who was concern over his death.

Steve Jobs’s death brought more traffic to my site than iPhone 4S’s announcement. Steve Jobs is really the world’s most famous and greatest CEO ever.
After checking out Cristiano Ronaldo’s Test to The Limit Videos, I really have to say I’m really impress with him, especially his mental skills. The ability to head in a goal in total darkness from a cross is truly amazing.
Check out the series of Test to The Limit where scientists examine why and how Cristiano is so effective in Soccer.
Crazy sale of HP TouchPads will be at Comex for the first 2 days. You will be able to get 16gb HP TouchPad for $118(without GST) and $188 for 32gb model. This kind of price for a tablet you will not be able to get anywhere else. HP will only be selling 100 sets per day per model. So if you wish to get 1, better be there early.
For me.. I was considering and thinking, I don’t really have a workflow for this HP TouchPad. It is a no brainer buy, just $118 for a 16gb TouchPad. But I don’t have any use for it… Put up as a digital photo album? Web surfing device? I really think of a good reason or use case for it. So, after considering, this $118 I will keep and purchase Canon 50mm 1.8 Lens instead. I think it will definitely be of more use for me than a extra tablet siting at home. Although I can’t deny the fact that I really wish to try out WebOS.
I have no idea how credible are the words of the Islamic Minister Louis Farrakhan, but he do make some sense. And I believe there are something out there which we don’t know yet. So who knows what he will disclose to the world. Hopefully it will be some with evidence, which might force countries like USA and Russia to tell us what is happening.
Hi guys. It has been a long time since I have blog. Recently I’m very busy with work, especially when I came back from US Vacation. Works has been crazy, haven’t been so busy for quite awhile… Learnt quite a few new things like Informatica Server Installation, Data Profiling from Informatica and Oracle DataWarehouse Administration.
Anyway back to what I wanna blog today. HDR and Photography. Yes, I have recently bought a DSLR – Canon 600D. DSLR is on my wishlist, so yup 1 strike off from it, a very painful one. Now I’m a very poor man. But what made me bite the bullet was my recent US Trip.
I always believe the saying “Money can’t buy Memory”, but what money can buy closest to “Memory” is Photographs & Video. Thus I bought my first ever DSLR Canon 600D. So for my trip to US, I brought along 600D and Panasonic HS200 Video Cam.
What can I say? I’m very busy in the trip, trying to balance when should I take video and when should I do photo. Anyway because camera is the newer one, so of course I will definitely be abit bias, thus took abit more photos than video.
Below are some of my HDR photo I took, HDR- High Dynamics Range Photos, I’m a newbie and learning. Please leave a comment so I can learn more about photography and HDR:
Another update of UFO. During my secondary school days, I was addicted to reading Animorphs books from Applegate, still my favorite books series till now. Why? Because it is a series based on Aliens and Technology which I feel is highly possible. Although author of the series Applegate mentioned all are ficition, but it seems amaze me.
Anyway, check out the consolidated video from YouTube on all the UFO sighting for the past few years, it excites me, honestly because I always feel that aliens are real:
How many of your mom actually told you that she need to go online to talk to you? How many of you guys actually live in the internet world that people just right beside you seems so far away… Check out the song.. it is very funny, interesting and… True?! Haha!
I haven’t been a blogger for very long… To be exact, close to 1.5 years… UsingApple.com‘s first blog post is on November 2009. I was never a Apple Fan boy, nor do I use any Apple product. Thanks to my girlfriend and parents who bought me an iPhone 3G for my birthday 2 years ago and turned me into one.
I bought my Macbook Pro on June of 2009 and there it drove me to create UsingApple blog sharing Apple related news, tips and tricks on it.
Below is the progress of my Apple Blog for the last 20 days… Better impressive from my own point of view… I remember those were the days when my blog only have 1-2 views and I finally got a average of 300-400 unique per day.
Thanks everyone… I will continue to blog more…Haha!
Always a fan of UFO, Aliens and weird weird stuff happening around the world… So this video is cool…. UFO Spotted hovering over Dome of Rock, an Islamic Shrine on top of Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.
It is just a bright white light, but look at the SPEED is can burst up into the sky in like less than a second! We are not sure if the video is real or fake, but with the crowds reactions in the video, and video taken by 2 different groups with different angle…
