Did I mentioned I Got A Mac?

I just got really tired of the ever-ending supply of security patches and virus invasions.

Second reason: Who doesn’t love Gisele Bundchen?

Have you heard of Twitter? Chances are you’d probably heard of it, it’s in the Top 10 searches on the Technorati Popular for quite a while. Just in case, you haven’t heard the buzz, Twitter is born as a side project within the offices of Odeo (this is part of Obvious Corporation, confusing right?), mostly Twitter is for staying in touch and keeping up with friends via instant mobile updates or a personalized Twitter page (this is mine).

Much like MySpace, you can add friends to your Twitter page. A bit like RSS feeds, friends and visitors can add you as a friend and receive instant updates by you.

When you think of it, effectively you have just setup ‘Email Marketing’ tool for yourself! You can now update all your friends and subscribers instantly without having to worry about the technical details needed to send out email newsletters, no need to manage mailing lists, etc. Just personalized your message and click the Update button. Can it be any simpler?

For subscribers, you definitely help them to address the issue about the email privacy, or whether they will getting plenty of ’spams’ or you will sell their email address once they subscribe to your mailing list, etc. All this concerns all gone!

O… did I mention it’s FREE too? No .05c per email sent thingy.

Personally, I believe it’s a great tool to use to stay personalized and connected with your readers, visitors, friends and family, especially when there’s no cost and technical expertise required to get started. Give it a shot! Maybe you will to like it, or if you prefer to trial out, first add me as a friend, and receive my updates instantly. See if that’s something useful to you.

When I first started this blog, like most bloggers out there, I have great plans for this blog, I wanted to do interview, review, videos, etc. And much Much more. Slowly and gradually, the readership for my blog started to increase, but after a couple of month, things just stand the same even though I was blogging more then ever.

But I’m just not getting the traffic, I would like to get. Then it strike me that I forget to KISS! Instead of staying focus and being really REALLY good at one thing, I am trying to everything on this blog. Obviously this is not working, I’m sending all sort of signals to the visitors to my blog. Soon instead of sending signals, I’m becoming noise, before I knew it, they became confused at what I’m writing about and start leaving my blog.

Now I trying to Keep It Simple, Stupid! I no longer try to do everything here, I just wrote about technology and blogging here. For all my other interests, I’m starting separate blogs for it all.

If you still dun quite get what I mean, think Woot. Woot like most online store and community out on the Internet selling cool stuff cheap. But what’s special about Woot is that it sell one item per day only, and nothing more.

Or think Twitter perhaps. Instead of spending the time to get the whole email newsletter thingy or mailing setup, Twitter allow users to send updates to subscribers or public in a jiffy! Yet another surprisingly simple concept right? (this is my twitter, add me too)

And yet both ‘projects’ are very successful online, so now maybe you want to re-evaluate your website. Are you trying to do too many things? And in mist of it, instead of sending the right signals to your customers, you are creating noise/spam instead.
