Why I think the iPhone iOS4.01 firmware sucks
Recently the official Jailbreak for iPhone iOS4 (firmware 4.0 and 4.01) has been released (go to http://jailbreakme.com) and I decided that it was time I upgraded by iOS 3.1.2 firmware on my iPhone 3Gs. Prior to upgrading, my phone's specs were these:

Hotmail account Hijacked or hacked? Here's how I retrieved it...
Yesterday my wife's hotmail account got hijacked. The account was created more than 10 years ago and at that time, she did not set any alternate email address in case of situations such as this. And worst still, the secret question's answer had to be incorporated with the location in which your account was open under where and when. Email accounts, as we now realize, are actually something very personal which holds many of our personal information (and secrets!) as well as vital information. Also by loosing an email account, imagine all the hassle you'd have to go thru to inform all the other services which you have subscribed to that send to your email account. For e.g. credit card statements, utility bills, stock trading account, social networking accounts (e.g. facebook, twitter, etc.). And loosing this email account may compromise all your other social networking accounts too because they too have password recovery services which sends password reset information to your email account!
What do we do? Well, contrary to the forums on the internet which mostly complaint about the crappy service which they got from Microsoft Live team, we got it resolved within 24 hours (after searching high and low on the internet that is). The people complaining about the service probably did not provide initial information for the team to work on or they are approaching the wrong channel in Microsoft. If you have went to MSN help centre, they will simply ignore you because it was not the right channel.

How to link your Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz and Live Messenger statuses
With all the different social networking tools and platforms available nowadays, its just so much hassle to update all of them with what you're thinking (or feeling). I know I do. But of course, maybe not everybody think its important to update all of them. Just update the ones you think most of your friends will see. But what about those friends who aren't on that social network and they wanna know whats happening to you?
Well, here are a few of my favorite social networks and I do not go to everyone of them to update them one by one. I have Facebook, Twitter, Google Buzz, Live messenger and also Foursquare. Now I do not update my Foursquare with statuses but I do update all the other social networking services with my Foursquare locations though. How do I do it?

Google Chrome gaining ground, overtakes Internet Explorer
Recently just checked the stats of this blog using blogspots new tool. I was not surprise to find that many visitors now use Google Chrome for the internet. Looks like IE has got a lot to do now. The pie chart below illustrates the stats for this blog.
Now this is only for this blog and it may be different for others. But this can probably be a rough indication on the browser war and who's winning it. Looks like Firefox still reigns.
What browser are you using?

Maxis and DiGi getting ready to launch iPhone 4 in Malaysia
The only two Apple authorized mobile services providers in Malaysia, Maxis and DiGi, are getting ready to launch the iPhone 4 in Malaysia. Their respective iPhone websites have been updated respectively showing the early interest registration form (not for reservation of the iPhone). As can be seen below:
Although there is no specific dates as to when it will arrive, historically once they have it up on their websites, we can expect to see the products arrival in within 1 to 2 months. Well, I wonder how well it would sell with all the debacle in regards to "antennagate". And would Malaysia iPhone 4 buyers get the free bumpers too just like "the rest of the world"? All these will be answered in the coming months (I hope).
