KAMI is a local TV mini series that made its debut on 8TV sometime ago and was re-aired recently. It has now gain a small but fast growing cult following among young local teens.
The first thing that got me watching this mini series was the music. My brother caught the series trailer on 8TV, he then record it on his phone and showed it to me. It has this cool wacky music track, it was Meet Uncle Hussain’s La La La Kerja Lah.
That was enough to grab my interest to watch the show.
The first episode blows my mind away and got me hooked for the rest of the show. When it comes to local Malay TV series, I’m not much of a fan. You can expect the same thing again and again.
KAMI on the other hand feels fresh and doesn’t feel like most of the typical local Malay drama series. I’ve to say that I am quite impress with how the series was written.

This is a milestone for Jiboneus.com, the blog. After several re-design, this blog has reach its 100th post. All that in less then a year from it’s launch.
This blog might be less then a year, but Jiboneus.com has been around for quite sometime. Blog.Jiboneus has been around since year 2005.
I decided to stop the old blog and starts a new one. I wanted to shift gears. The old blog has become a blog about Web2.0. Back then I was a fanboy of Web2.0. That blog talks nothing but Web2.0 stuff.
This time around Jiboneus will be about all of my other passions, and not just web2.0.

I don’t always comments on other blogs. I am not someone who engage in arguments on the internet. I use my blog to comments on things I read form other blogs.
RantingsbyMM blog by Marina Mahathir, has always been on my feed reader list. Never did paid much attention on her writings, but her recent post “Do Malaysian Hate Blacks?” caught my interest.
The blog post refers to an article on Malay Mail, Victims of Hate by Teoh El Sen and Aizat Sharif on September 23, 2008.

Yet another Apple special event day went down lastweek. The supreme overlord, our beloved cult leader, Steve Jobs comes down from the mystical mountain of supreme divine innovation and gives us mortals his legendary keynote speech.
As usual I was not invited. However that doesn’t stop me from following the event live. Tracking tweets from Twitter, lurking in IRC back channels and refreshing Engadget as fast as I could click the refresh button.
Right after the event is over, I wrote a short report of what when down on MyMacBUZZ, the Malaysia based Apple blog I co-blog once in a while.
Here are two things I had noticed on the keynote.

A lot of things going to happen this week. Apple will announce it’s brand new iPod and may be a new iTunes 8.0 on the 9th. Sony plans to release more information on its official Malaysian PS3 launch. I’ll be going to AsterConference 2008, a series of conference in Asia dedicated to the world of Asterisk, the world most popular open source telephony software. And I also need to get my baju Raya from the tailor.
All that wont matter anymore, because on the September 10th, CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, will turn on the switch to it’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC). No doubt it is the most expensive and biggest physics experiment ever carried out by mankind. There is a reason why they call it the ‘Large Hadron Collider’ and not a ‘Small Hadron Collider’.
The Large Hadron Collider, is the world’s largest particle accelerator complex intended to collide opposing beams of 7 TeV protons. The word ‘Proton’ here refers to subatomic particles, not our national car manufacturer, we already know what happens when that ‘Proton’ collides, most of the time, it causes massive traffic jams on both side of the road.

The word pirate here refers to digital media pirates, not the sword swinging, parrot on shoulder kind of pirates or the modern ones with AK-47, grenade launcher, ship hijacking pirates. They don’t go ‘arrrr’ at each sentence when they speak either.
I am referring to people who download digital media, you know movies, TV shows, music, etc. Your typical Internet/computer users.
Here is a simple logic of why pirates are not thief. Theft removes the original. They snatch things or money. Piracy on the other hand makes a copy of the original.

Google is about to ignite a World Browser War II with the introduction of Google Chrome. Everybody on the Interweb is talking about the soon to be released Google based browser called Google Chrome.
No this in not just a skinned Firefox with integrations to Google’s API. It’s a brand new browser.
So what does Chrome has under its hood?

My prayers goes to people of New Orleans as they faces yet another great storm in which the outcome might be yet another massive flooding.
The tropical storm Gustav, which now had become Hurricane Gustav is said to be “the mother of all stroms” and it’s heading straight to them.
Reports are coming in of New Orleans evacuation. I can imagine that 2005’s Katrina memories are still fresh in the minds of the people of New Orleans as they evacuate their homes.
This also gives the U.S. government and New Orleans mayor a second chance to do something right. A second chance is the rarest commodities in a political arena and it looks like they are capitalizing it.
