Facebook users mistakes ReadWriteWeb.com as their login page

When ReadWriteWeb came out with their article, I bet they didn't expect to have a lot of readers landing on their site from Google.com looking for the facebook login page by typing "facebook login" in to the search bar. For some reason, the article was higher than the actual facebook login page so the confused facebook users started leaving comments. Hilarious!

Review: Tune Hotels 1Borneo, Kota Kinabalu

Feb 12th, 2010

1 Comment


1Borneo is this shopping mall just outside the Kota Kinabalu town, around 5 mins drive from University Malaysia Sabah. Actually come to think of it, 1Borneo does feel a bit like Midvalley in terms of layout.

Anyway, Tune Hotels is one of the few hotels attached to 1Borneo – similar to Cititel Hotel and Midvalley in KL. The rates are from RM20 and up depending on the dates. I stayed there from 25th – 29th January. 1Borneo is a bit out of town but there’s a free shuttle bus from the other exit that stops in Warisan Square, right in the middle of town, near shopping malls like Centerpoint and all.

My room came with some amenities:

(a) Towel + soap + 1 sachet shower gel + 1 sachet shampoo = RM5 + RM10 refundable deposit

(b) 12-hour aircond credits = RM 13.49

The room consists of a double bed, two pillows, comforter, foldable table, KDK ceiling fan and power shower. Add-ons are TV, Wifi & Air Cond. Tune Hotels promises a 5 Star sleeping experience with a 1 star price. Here are some pictures of the room and shower :)

Nokia Music Explorer : Covers

Feb 2nd, 2010

0 Comment


Missed last week’s recommendations coz was outstation in Sabah, so here are 4 songs this week. The theme is Covers :D

1. Buses & Trains (cover) – Nikki Gil
Nikki Gil is a singer from the Philippines that has an album of covers of songs. Her voice is smooth and her energy in upbeat. She has another album of Tagalog songs… (but i downloaded it anyway).

2. Smooth (Santana Cover) – Escape the Fate
This song is frm the album "Punk Goes Pop Vol 2" and this cover is one of my favs in the album. Think Smooth with a more rock-ish vibe. Love love love! Download the whole album while you’re at it :P

3. Ayo Technology (Cover) – Milow
I first heard this in youtube – quite a sexy vid if i may say – and a great cover. Almost sounds like an Unplugged version of the original. Sexy vocals from Milow

4.Me & Mrs Jones – Michael Buble
There have been many-many covers of this song, but I still like Michael Buble’s version. Reminds me of lounge-y music, black piano and ballrooms. Great for mellow days

 

* All songs featured in the Nokia Music Explorer posts are available for download on the Nokia Ovi Music store via the Nokia X6 Comes With Music. To learn more, check out their facebook at http://www.facebook.com/nokiamusicmalaysia *
