My-Name-in-My-Domain List

May sent me on a chase for bloggers who use their names in their domain. AND it turns out that I was tagged by the imperial concubine manager, the Simple American at the same time. This list, “My Name in My Domain List”, was initiated by Gary Lee since having your own domain name is a “criterion” for John Chow’s dotcom moghul status.

Is it good to have your own name in the domain name of your blog? I suppose that it’s for those who don’t mind if “kaypohchee” friends and acquaintances google your name and find it on the net. I initially registered my domain just to experiment with. Why did I use my name for the domain? Actually I was just lacked the creativity to find a domain name besides my own. Do I need a better reason?

The bloggers in the list blog about a variety of subjects, but, of course, John Chow and Gary Lee talk about technology, internet and making money. I notice that a lot of popular blogs on the net are about these 3 subjects… i suppose it’s natural since that’s what readers on the internet are interested in.

Instructions:

1) Write a short introduction paragraph about how you found the List and include a link to the blog that referred you to the List.
2) COPY the ENTIRE List below and add it to your blog. To avoid duplicate content and increase the amount of keywords your site can be accessible for, go ahead and change the title of the blog. Just don’t change the links of the blogs.
3) Take the ‘My Adds’ and move them into the ‘The Originals’ list.
4) Tag 3 Brand New Narcissistic Bloggers that you know of, to a new ‘My Adds’.

My Adds:
Pelf
Yenjai
YeePei

By the way, what’s EFND™ ? Hmmm… some code? and what’s LSLB™? I’m cracking my head to decipher these…

  • EFND = Epidermal Nerve Fiber Density?
  • LSLB = Licensed Sick Leave Bank?
  • Orion in a starry sky

    It didn’t rain today.

    And just as I thought that I was getting a break from watering the garden! The sky was clear with no sign of cloud cover. I looked up and there was Orion, the Hunter. The three stars of the Orion’s belt can be clearly seen. It’s the most recognizable constellation in the sky.

    I remember looking at the desert sky over Alice Springs and seeing Orion in the southern hemisphere. Of course the desert sky was much more starry than our Malaysian skies, since there was hardly any cloud over the desert. It was the most spectacular night sky I’d ever seen and has yet to be surpassed.

    Tonight’s night sky (click for a bigger picture) looked quite good too:

    Smile!

    Colonoscopy is the examination of the whole length colon from the junction between the small and large intestines down to the anus. Besides the pretty sight of the waving villi in the end of the small intestines that greet the endoscopist at the completion of colonoscopy, there another structure that the endoscopist looks for….

    The SMILE of the appendix’s base.

    The appendix is attached to the beginning of the colon (called the caecum) and when you look at it from the inside of the colon, the base is all you see. As the picture above.


    Just to give you a view of the appendix from outside the colon…

    Garden post

    It’s started raining in the late afternoons lately. Of course it does. It’s almost April. The season is the inter-monsoon: the period between the north-easterly and the south-westerly. The moisture doesn’t get blown away and comes down again in the late afternoons. So don’t be surprised that we get “April showers” in this part of the world.

    I’m hoping that this will ACCELERATE the growth of the grass in my garden. It’s been two months since my last garden post.. so here are some photos of the garden. The grass is still a bit patchy, much as it was 2 months ago.
