Surprise surprise, Soufulow dot com is just two months shy from being 2 years old. didn’t really thought i can go this far on the blog but yeah, i’ve been working on this personal blog for nearly 2 years. had been writing for more than 200 blog posts but due to certain technical problems, my first 100+ post was lost.

Nevermind the old times, what matters is now and future development. sadly, soufulow’s blog had been nothing more than a random blog - where topics from all walk of life are posted here. streamyx rants, tee shirt design, make money online, web marketing and business world, globalization, web games, a little taste on my investment story, and Yap even teased me that my blog is turning into a festival greeting blog.

Let’s say that i’m pretty tired of handling a ‘rojak’ (means mixed up) blog and i wish something more with soufulow.com. it limits the blog development, and i knew i should start focusing on certain niche, consistently. unfortunately, i’m kinda dilemma in picking up the niches and here’s where YOU can come in to give a hand:

Well, for mine, definitely yes. youtube loaded in seconds, international website surfing is smooth and fast - the only bad thing is the BT speed still gets throttled. but that’s okay for me since i dont do BT DL that much, hahaha, pity those who buy up streamyx service for free Hong Kong drama.

As a quick update, i would like to highlight to you that there’s quite a debate going on here between me and another commentor named ‘it’s me’ on streamyx issue. for those who kept following streamyx complaints, perhaps you can participate on the discussion at here: Streamyx complaints. the page is bit of too long as the comments grow up to 70+, you might just scroll down and start reading from comment (67).

Have fun!

The first book i read about affiliate marketing was Rosalinda’s Super Affiliate Handbook; my first multimedia reading was a low grade chinese Photoshop dummy guides; the first money book i bumped into was Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad.

The similarity in this? crappy, if not, much of the content are useless info.

In the same time, these ‘crappy-stuffs’ are life changing. Rosalinda’s book was so simple and it makes internet marketing looks so easy to me; the photoshop dummy guides lifted my interest in multimedia which then lead me to flash animation and website production later; and of course, the well known Robert’s Rich Dad Poor Dad series impact millions to re-learn about money and achieve better financially.

Sometime it’s just too hard to seperate between good and bad - you’re amazed how stupid you were spending hundreds or even thousands on those useless dummy guides; but then again it’s those dummy books that got you started learning.

You might complain dummy guides are overpriced all the time when compare to those useful books that provide advance skills/knowledge - but hey, the main reason dummy guides are selling expensive are, well, being dumb! the value of dummy guides lay on how they make things look simple, which in turn get you started on whatever that you wish to learn. right?

So next time when you found a *useless* book in your book rack - don’t curse and think the book publishers are money-sucker; congrat yourself instead coz you’re at least better than dummy in that field! you dont need the dummy guide anymore, but many others might still need it. so why not just share out the book with other dummies?
