Digg ~ First pic of Wii Rock Band white drum kit

Harmonix unveils Wii-exclusive drum kit and answers your nagging questions about the upcoming version of Rock Band...
Alright! It's not usual that I get excited when I read about some new product releases but this one surely did it. I've always wanted to try hitting some drums in a band (and I've never been in one). I gotta admit that I've never been good in playing musical instruments but I have the confidence and excitement (what else is lacked?) to try it again on drum-hitting. Well, for now, I could only imagine that I'm playing for the songs How Far We've Come (performed by Matchbox Twenty) or I Don't Love You (My Chemical Romance) every time I indulge myself into it.

And Wii? That'll be another big toy for me. Well... seems like I've got many items on my wish list now. When am I gonna realize them? I guess won't be too long. Hehe...

Digg ~ The 10 Lamest Dinosaur Names

This article is so much fun to read about. I am a dinosaur fan. But it does not make me upset to see how people have named some of the monsters (my bad...) so badly. LOL.

Funny pic ~ how to build fat?

I once read a Japanese comic book describing a make-believe world where we no longer have to move a finger to do even the simplest motion. Machines would do it all. These days it's just kinda happy to see all the stuffs we've seen only on papers back in the old times to have come alive into our real world now. Just like Transformers or all Marvel heroes you know? It's alive~

I Am Legend ~ Alternate ending


There's the scene that's been missing in the cinema but seen in the trailer. Both endings send the same message in one way or another: these's a hope in the end. But I personally prefer the first ending as Will has become the real legend to meet the fans' expectations. People love heroes. Ain't that right? ;)

Take a peep at the future ~ futuristic UI


The first time I saw iPhone, I was full with astonishment and I knew at that time the future is on the advent at our sight. But geographically and politically, I can now only woo-haa by looking all this happening offshore. :(

Even more surprises can be seen here.

Nature of business

It's a bittersweet experience to take a glance at all these possible perspectives. And I feel particularly interested to see how all (or maybe most) people would have the same portraits of "How the project was documented" and "How it was supported" as I do. :)

Have you made any mistake before?

And that someone usually would criticize people's mistakes trying to add values to themselves. Ain't that right? They always wanted to prove other people to be miserable because didn't choose the path like they did. Well, to me, stop learning simply means "brain dead" to me. Haha...
