Use the search engine as your quick world clock

If you have friends on the other side of the world and wondering whether they are at work or at home sleeping, you can quickly check their local time using search engines.

For google, just type in “Time in New York” if you want to know NY’s time at that moment. I’ve tried KK and Kota Kinabalu but Google didn’t return the local time, just some links. You need to type in “Time in Kuala Lumpur” then you can get the local time here.

Streamyx Rants

Okay, it has to happen somehow. Me complaining about Streamyx. I feel guilty also lah posting this up since my best and favourite cousin works there (hehe) but it’s not her fault right?

Eversince their “upgrading” work last month, the line has been inconsistent. I’ve been calling their support 3 times since then and everytime, my connection freezed in their system. During weekends, I don’t switch off my routers as I don’t want to “lose” the line.

Yesterday the whole office line was out, hence the no updates on this blog. Even Flanegan got pissed off but at least he “feels alive without the internet”, while for me, I don’t know. I find it’s hard to go through the day knowing that I have some unread emails in my gmail acct.

Bah. Hopefully Streamyx will get its act together and give all of us our money’s worth eh?
