shoppingFuhh. Bila nak cuti berblogging, tangan asyik kegatalan je nak update blog. Bila blog dah bersawang tak update, memang takde hati langsung nak update pulak. Adat berblogging, mungkin. Lagipun stats blog ni merudum sejak aku tak update. Aku mana suka, dah berbunga2 hati tengok everyday semakin up & up bila tengok menurun mesti la tak suka. Jadi untuk entry kali ni aku akan cerita serba sedikit tentang kedai-kedai online yang aku pernah beli dan review tentang servis mereka

5 Essential Things You Need As a Blogger

December 31, 2008 - 10:21 am 7 Comments

i love blog

Being a blogger doesn’t mean that we only have to write anything we like in our blog without thinking on the quality of the article. Make extra effort to gain extra interest among readers. It’s the effort and creativity that makes a visitor stays for more

In this article, I will state my personal recommendation regarding of the things you need as a blogger. Yup, I mean a NEW blogger. I have chosen 5 things but actually there’s more because I’ll just pick some of my favourites

The same article can be found in my other blog : Blogging2U.com

  1. Photo Editing Program
  2. Photoshop should be a great option for photo editing but unfornately it takes time to load. Photoshop can be used for creating an image from scratch while Photoscape is great for editing photos especially in bulk. I’d suggest using Photoscape as it is very lightweight and offers a lot of useful tools for photo editing

  3. Image Hosting Account
  4. This is very essential for every blogger which means that each one of them should have at least an image hosting account. There are many websites that offers image hosting services but Imageshack and Photobucket are the most popular. Personally, I’d recommend Photobucket as it is fast and reliable

  5. Dictionary/Thesaurus
  6. Altough it sounds weird but these things should come in handy in order for you to come up with interesting words. Don’t be rigid, but instead try to be different from others. Indirectly, you will learn something new everyday. Who knows?

  7. Screen Capture Program
  8. Hitting Print Screen key on your keyboard and then paste it to Paint. Is that what you always do? Maybe you’re never heard of screen capture program. Basically what screen capture program do is that they will save webpage automatically as an image according to your selection. Try using ScreenGrab! for Firefox addons or MWSnap 3. Both are great!

  9. Code Editor
  10. Most intermediate and advanced web developer uses code editor like Adobe Dreamweaver because it also offers visual editor. But for a blogger like us that just might need some minor changes in our code, you might want to consider on using Notepad++. Basically, it is just an advanced version of the usual text editor, Notepad but comes with many different programming language

Hope these info really helps in order for you to build a better blog. Let me know if you had other things in mind :)

Blog yang guna Blogspot tapi cun!

November 28, 2008 - 11:19 am 47 Comments

PERHATIAN :

Entry ni bertujuan untuk inspire pengguna Blogspot supaya jadi lebih kreatif dengan design blog dorang. Aku just buat observation then review apa yang aku suka mengikut pandangan aku secara peribadi. No hard feelings okay?

bududanbelacan

Pertama kali aku tengok blog ni aku sangat teruja sebab ia sangat simple tapi nice. Gaya penulisan blog ni mmg sempoi, jadi xhairan la kalau bududanbelacan ni mempunyai pengikut yang ramai. Layout simple tetapi menarik sebab guna 2-3 kombinasi warna yang bersesuaian. Simple but smart. Oh, i likeeee~

alkisahnyalah

Ni lagi satu blog yang membuatkan aku kejelesan bila masuk sambil berkata “Dem! Ada choki-choki”. Cisdel betul, blog aku yang Chokilala ni pun xde gambar choki-choki. Malang betul aku xreti melukis (luckily i got encik f *wink*). Blog ni guna magazine template which is menarik sbb skrg pun mmg trend org pakai magazine style kan. Psst, aku sendiri pakai template ni untuk personal blog. Nak URL? Xpat.. Hehehe

queenrara

Queenrara ialah blog kepunyaan Rarakus yang memang rakus. Haha. Tapi dia rakus dalam mengedit template blog dia la, jangan fikir yang bukan2 plak. Kihkih. Apa yang istimewanya, daripada pemerhatian aku blog ni dah evolve menjadi blog yang sangat cun. Visitors pun dah jadi semakin ramai, sbb layout dan gaya penulisan dia yang cute. Sbnrnye jeles gak bila tgk blog dia ni sbb blog Chokilala dah xcute mcm dulu. Isk (-_-”)

gocoders

Gocoders ni x update lagi kot tapi aku nak letak gak sebab design blog ni memang unik. Kenapa? Sebab dia menampilkan style Web 2.0 di blog dia. Banyak guna badges dan gradients which is great sebab simple tapi menarik. Xbanyak blog di Blogspot yang pakai style mcm ni sebab kena buat modification yang banyak. Salute untuk gocoders, blog kau memang cantik menarik tertarik. Hihihi

dilarang-melarang

Cuba tengok tu, blog kepunyaan Marzuki Campbell aka BlogMenjerit ni memang cantik tapi tak senonoh. Memang sesuai la kat atas tu dia cakap blog dia hanya untuk bacaan orang dewasa saje. Blog ni daripada dulu lagi asyik ubah layout je, pening kepala aku tapi nasib baik la setiap kali dia ubah still smart. Personally, aku suka layout lama yang tulisan dilarang-melarang tu mcm tulisan untuk band Hujan. Layout skrg ni cantik tapi gelap sikit. Woi Marzuki, ko xbayar bil elektrik ke ape? Hahaha

chokilala

Ngehngeh. Mestila tuan tanah pun nak tumpang sekaki kan? Aku sangat suka blog lama aku di Blogspot ni sebab aku coding sendiri semuanya. Xdela hard code everything, tapi combine and ubah coding. Oleh sebab rindu nak tengok blog lama, aku dah x forwardkan blog lama ke blog Wordpress ni. So, korang boleh la tgk balik blog lama aku kalau rindu. Dengan Chokilala Blogspot ni la aku dapat ramai kwn, bergaduh dengan J *ehem*, dan dapat boyfriend. Hei encik f terpikat dengan blog dulu tau, dah jumpa baru terpikat dengan orangnya. Kehkeh. Masa launch design baru dulu pun, stats visitor blog naik sampai terkejut la tengok perubahan yang sangat mendadak tu

Ok, itu saje untuk entry kali ni. So, korang setuju x dengan blog pilihan aku di atas? Kalau setuju bagi la sebab, dan juga sebaliknya kalau tak setuju. Kalau korang ada jumpa blog lain yang cun, sila tinggalkan URL blog tu dalam ruangan komen ok? ;)
