It seems like just a few days after launching their new version, Maybank2u has perhaps realized the new version is more difficult for its users to use, and has thus reverted to the classic version. I thought this sort of thing should not have happened, they should have done enough user experience and system testing to make sure everything is OK first, before launching…

Anyway, Maybank2u now has this notice on the homepage.

Well, clicking on the login link will automatically direct you to the old login page.

So, what do you think? You prefer the old classic version which works, or the more fancy newer version?

If you are like me, you have probably benefited greatly from the many calendaring applications that help you organize your life. As a university student, the ease-of-use and versatility of calendaring applications means that I can track my assignments, homework and any unusual classes with ease, providing me with a visual summary of what’s in store for the week so that everything can be done on time.

It is also sometimes a little bit depressing especially when you just want to take an hour off to watch a movie and get a guilt-trip when you see your calendar and all the activities and events that are supposed to be accomplished.

Anyway, the benefits far outweigh this small problem which is why I still use the calendar today. In my case, Rainlendar is the calendaring application that I use and it’s clean, slick and simple and resides on your desktop so it does not obstruct anything.

This WordPress theme looks so perfectly good, but worry not, it isn’t a premium theme which you have to buy to use it. Instead, I am releasing this WordPress theme for free, under the open source GPL license.

That’s a sneak peek at how the homepage of the blog is going to look like. The theme is optimized to take two 250×250 Google Adsense ads on the homepage right beside the featured post. I strongly recommend placing an image Adsense ad on the left, and a text Adsense ad to its right. The click through should be high…
