Following some trends over the weekend, I notice that some people are initiating a “boycott” against PPS simply because I now own it through my company, VCTech Network. Some have even been touting that a particular, relatively new blog aggregator will be a potential “challenger” to PPS. I did my homework and I can tell them right now that they are wasting their time in trying to boycott a local giant. You can see the PPS statistics if you don’t believe me.
But one of the reasons given for this “boycott” is because of their unwarranted fear that I would ban anyone who disagrees with me publicly on PPS, on the premise that I banned one uncivilised lout from it. Unfortunately this notion is simply mistaken, because that thug was the only person I have banned from the system thus far. I did unban several blogs from the system and of them was Sze Hau’s blog, who was banned (unfairly, in my opinion) for a technical glitch which was not his fault. Its good to see that someone appreciates my efforts to improving PPS. Its not like I am getting any monetary benefit from unbanning him or anyone else who was previously banned by PPS.
If banning an anonymous, uncivilised bastard who was born from the gutter is going to eclipse the fact that I unbanned a decent person, so be it. If this is going cause me to be labelled as an “extremist”, so be it. I really do not care. So be it.

Seems to be some sort of blogger virus in the family, as it seems that I have infected my little sister. Its like looking into a mirror because the writing style reminds me so much of…well, me. LOL. I’ll think about getting her own domain name and shifting her to WordPress (oh, how I hate Blogger!) if she’s really into it. Plus it seems that she is venturing into internet entrepreneurship too, although the things she is selling are waayyyy too girlish for my tastes.
But heck, if its your thing, you can check it out.

I have been thinking about this for some time and I think this is a good time to actually go about doing it. I do have a Bahasa Melayu blog but as one can obvious see, it is updated quite sparingly not because I don’t have anything to write about, but because I really dislike using the Blogger posting system. I guess that happens when one is attached to WordPress for far too long.

I have seen many webmaster blogs before but this design blog which calls itself Stylish Blog truly comes with style as the name says. On visiting this site, I had a really positive impression of it and I immediately bookmarked it for future reference. I really like the colour scheme of the blog as the light tones certainly match up with the general nature of the blog. I wonder if I could get my designer to come up with a theme like that for one of my blogs?

Is it just me or is there a current rush for politicians, especially those from Barisan Nasional/UMNO, to embrace blogging as part of their new “occupation”? Latest to join the bandwagon is The Man With Two “Muhammad”s in His Name. Its not an unhealthy development, but it disturbs me, nonetheless. After all, think about it: if everyone is going to rush into making his/her own blog, soon each and every single individual in Malaysia is going to have a blog and the word “blogger” suddenly loses any real meaning.
