What I mean here is, they work like this – I buy from you, I sell to him. There will be no corporate in the process. No wholesale distributors were included in the process of making a sales. I’m not saying this is wrong with the whole process, but I have trouble with the little bit thing named “Market Pricing”.

I am no man in bussiness though. But I heard a lot of news about running businesses and I happen to have lots of friends, who are business majored.

I believe we know people from all kind of background and field. We got friends from business administration, people who got jobs in health care and etc. Most of the time, we would like to know more about how their business run, and what could happen in the particular business. But why does being with a job is all about money?

I could have a job else where and get much more month stable income than now, but I don’t act onto it, just because I’m more concern about my passion and satisfaction. Since my passion can help me make a living, I would definitely want to see how much it can reach out.

Don’t question it!

While we did thought about selling products online instead of selling services online. Servicing is just taking too much time, don’t they? Selling product on the other hand, is more fixed on the requirement and all.

Currently I am reading a book, a title that catched my eyes while I was in Popular bookstore a week back. It called “What Customers Really Want: Bridging the Gap Between What Your Company Offers and What Your Clients Crave“

Now that is what I am reading and trying to digust whatever is in there.

Though I can’t deny that having an online social networking helps, but this book here, wrote some “others” stuff that we totally forgotten, and that is not even on socialing with customer.

Will go through this book and combined the coaching session from David Wang and come out something

Back while I was in college, I used to move a lot, like 2 times a year average. Not because I have big trouble with the people living in there, but for the sake of changing a taste after a period of time. However, I haven’t got the chance to move to somewhere where I need snow boots, that may and may not come true, considering I am not a single guy anymore.

Things are all putting down and and I am read y to take another bold move. Months back, my friend insisted her sister to start her internship program at my home. I bet she is the most luckiest internship ever. When flood, no working; When we outstation, no working, don’t even need to step into office

My dream of having a paperless (or at least less-paper), is not coming true too. We just bought a new HP printer (What a smart-arse choice eh?), then we printed quite a few round here and there. Hmm… Businesses are killing off the nature very very soon.

There are a few of changes I needed to adopt quickly nowadays. So let it be and move to another challenge

Recently I find a great JQuery plugin – ContentFlow. The effect is simply awesome, and not to mention the small file size it has to enable me to implement a lot more JQuery altogether with it.

The best thing I find about ContentFlow is that it doesn’t really has external style sheet as it will get from its own directory. Been spending nights looking for a better and easier slider, bet the best eye cream couldn’t help me anymore, but it all worth it!

Now the idea of this implementation is, list the attachment of a post in ContentFlow style. Basically you’ll upload all the necessary images when publishing a post, those images will automatically shows in CoverFlow (ContentFlow plugin) style.

First, show the attachment. Not by gallery shortcode, but hand code it. I got this hack from Digging into WP, it shows a list of great recipes on image and attachment:

<?php
$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’,
‘numberposts’ => 0,
‘post_status’ => null,
‘post_parent’ => $post->ID
);
$images = get_posts($args);
if ($images) {
foreach ($images as $image) {
$attlink = wp_get_attachment_url($image->ID);
echo ‘<a href=”‘.$attlink.’” class=”item”><img class=”content” src=”‘.$attlink.’” alt=”Flow” title=”Flow” /></a>’;
}
}
?>

Do take a short trip to ContentFlow documentation for more information about the required classes like .item and .content.

Add in the plugin on header:

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_url’); ?>/js/contentflow.js” charset=”utf-8″></script>

So the overall code on the loop should look like this:

<div id=”contentFlow” class=”ContentFlow”>
<div class=”loadIndicator”><div class=”indicator”></div></div>

<div class=”flow”>

<?php
$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’,
‘numberposts’ => 0,
‘post_status’ => null,
‘post_parent’ => $post->ID
);
$images = get_posts($args);
if ($images) {
foreach ($images as $image) {
$attlink = wp_get_attachment_url($image->ID);
echo ‘<a href=”‘.$attlink.’” rel=”lightbox-cats” class=”item”><img class=”content” src=”‘.$attlink.’” alt=”Advertiser” title=”Advertiser” /></a>’;
}
}
?>

</div>

<div class=”globalCaption”> </div>
<div class=”scrollbar”>
<div class=”slider”><div class=”position”></div></div>
</div>
</div>

I placed it as the feature slider on top of the page. I’ve placed lightbox together with it too. Looks alright don’t it?

P/S: That is how dull my framework look like

Last weekend, I went to Kuchning to find some dealer on post card printing and signboard to be made. Saturday morning, with all kind of excitement, I went back Sibu by boat, I was surprise to see the river level when the boat entering Sibu coast.

The whole Sibu is like an underwater World now. Roundabout became an island, you wouldn’t know where is the corner, unless you drive around daily to know the routine.

I am, finally stucked at home again. The last time I encounter flood in Sibu was 2007, after that I did not go back that frequent, and now I thought of permanently staying in Sibu, it happen again!

Well, like usual, people started to complaint about government this and government that… I hope the newly elected MP of Sibu can handle those complaints, as it is now become he who did not work but not the previous one Get some education you moron Sibuan, stop dumping and logging to make a living…

Still remembering the good old days, when everyone talking without boundries, everyone playing tricks to everybody, gets to have a good barbeque with or without an outdoor electric grill.

That, is the good old days, which I think I can’t or impossible to even find one in the near future.

When people gets together, it’s like a chemical happening in between and resulting more thinking behind an idea. A good idea can be very very bad. But hell, who made the decision that “Greed” is a bad thing? “Mean” is bad? What? “Selfishness” also a bad thing? Who decide that and why?

Well, those can be nicely handle if win-win situation could happen. If that happen, you are on the luck my friend. Of course, more often than none, the win-win situation always involve money, the devil

That what break a human…

I need a good rest, that’s it!

Now the question came in as how I’m going to find my way in Kuching? A year ago, I bought the beloved Nokia E71 and now it has become something like PDA or SMC (super mini computer) for me. Currently it operate as a broadband tool and GPS for me only.

After reading so much of gps reviews, I decided to install Garmin Mobile with it and it has been working damn well for me for the past few months while I was in KL. But my trouble arised when I did not install Sarawak and Sabah map.

That’s why I always tell people I prefer small town over city. But hey, the oppoturnities in city worth all the trouble, don’t they?

My friend told me “You know where you strong at, where your confident goes, and how to make money with your passion, but the choice is up to you. Taking care of a person can be a lot of ways, and this is just one of the way“. My wife told the same, and started to also input her thought onto it. Probably I am trying to cover bigger circle, though without the ability to do so, I have been forcing myself to.

However, I do foreseen something, that is not comfortable may happen if things keep going down the drain without much communication. I reckon I did not behave and/or act badly for what and who I am, so things probably going to be just fine.

“Trouble goes right past the LORD’s people and strikes the wicked”

A few days ago, they carried a road upgrade work on my resident area without notice, without help.

A lot of residents here are shock paniced with the surprise work SMC brought in, and did not called to extend our bridge. We all here have to spend money building a new one, which SMC just whipping their arse and leave.

But the story doesn’t end there. Today they came again to apply tar onto it, after almost a week! However, due to their overly clever engineer and accountant, that is all they can “afford”

The rest are on our own, again! Means, we resident here is going to need to spend our money for their upgrading work again.

Yes, local election is needed!
