The first Getting Things Done (GTD) list after moved to a new house is to make sure my house is reachable to the internet. I already have the Streamyx account but currently is registered to my friend’s telephone line. The telephone line is in my previous house. So now I want to transfer my Streamyx account to my new house.
Last week I went to TM Net to ask about this thing. I want to transfer my Streamyx. Firstly, I need to register a new telephone line. To register it, I need to have the address. Yes, I have the address. I got it from TNB’s bill. I had given to her. But she said that the system cannot recognize my address. The problem is because the TNB’s billing address is not using the same address as TM Net use. I am new in here, I don’t know where to get the actual address that she want. Then, she put my application into the waiting list. I ask her how long normally it takes to identify the actual address. She replied that she also don’t know how long it will take. She had made me hopeless. Later, she said that the process will be faster if I can find a phone number of my neighborhood. She can search the actual address in their system from that number. She just gave me hope.
Then, I have a new GTD. “Find my neighbor’s that have a phone numberâ€. Luckily, yesterday I had a short chat with my neighbor. She said that my other neighbor have a telephone line in his house. So, I have new GTD thing, “Find his phone numberâ€. I am new guy in here. Can I just knock to his house and ask for the phone no? I think that is rude.

In this post, I want to share one interesting site that can give us the information about the current time in Malaysia. Before this, I always refer to my Astro decoder to get the time, but how accurate was the decoder is?
Now, I can refer to this site to get the accurate time. It is the official’s site that showing the Malaysia time. Of course I can trust this site because it had been maintained by National Metrology Laboratory also known as SIRIM. This site also provides a service that act as NTP server so that you can synchronize your PC time with it. So, after this, you no need to worry about your PC time. It should be accurate. Unless you don’t have the internet connection :P. You can refer to this page to learn how to configure the synchronization.

I still remember what my friend had told to me a long time ago. On that time, I want to send my other friend to his college. He told me to be careful when driving to Puncak Alam, there is a tapir crossing the road. That advice makes me smling inside. I had never saw a real tapir in live other than in Zoo. 
.That makes me thinking, Puncak Alam is very far away. Far away from other big towns.
Today, I’m moving to that place. 
Yes, it is far away from the big towns like Puchong (my previous home), Kuala Lumpur. But if looking at where I’m working now (Shah Alam), it is not that far. It is about 35km. So I guess it a good choice to move there. The rent there is very cheap. :D.
Below is the map of my new ‘Home Sweet Home’. It is my first attempt to embed the Google Map into the blog. And it is working well. Thanks to uncle Google. Hehe. Peace. Â Â

A lot of good stuffs that available in a Web 2.0. Before this, a web is only use to give the information. There is no two ways communication between the writer and the readers. A small company only can show their profiles and some of their product’s images. No comments can be inserted. No AJAX and RIA can make the product’s image more interesting. Luckily for us, we can add a comment now.
FCKEditor
Long introduction isn’t it? :D. Just now, I just added a text editor’s plugin (FckEditor) into my web applications. It is a great AJAX plugin. I think, some of you already know about this plugin. Nevermind, this post purposely for the beginner. Like me
If you are a developer and never yet use this FckEditor, I think you should try it. Your customer should like it. The text will return in “html text”,

Just save into your database and display it in your page.

I had been informed by my client (also is my friend) that my web UI is not aligned properly when he opened from his old PC. I am thinking for a while and then realized that maybe it is a cross platform problem.Â
Then yesterday, I went to his office and had a look on it by myself. I am surprise when I looking on it, it’s totally unaligned. He opened it using MSIE 6.0. Â Yes, my assumption is correct. Â It is a common issue in the web development.
Today, while reading a blog. I’d found a good tool to check the browser compability. It’s a web application tool and no need to install. What you need to do is, insert the url. Select what type of browser that you want to test and then click submit. This will generate the screenshots of your url that open in a different browser.
Below is some screen shot that I had did with my web.
Firefox 2.0
Internet Explorer 7.0
Internet Explorer 6.0
