Who are you in the world of internet?

So, I did search for myself. I search for tzewei on Google, and found myself ranked no 1. Yeah!! Thanks to MyBlogLog, it's the my profile page on MyBlogLog.

Here is the screen shots of the search result - "tzewei"



So how about Yahoo? I performed the same search and get this.
It's ranked #3 on the first page, but under my blogger's profile. Not bad though.

It's just something fun to check your popularity on the web/internet. Hopefully one day I would have got my own wikipedia profile written like one of the blogger, politician in Malaysia - Jeff Ooi and many more.

Malaysian Own Chat Widget/Shoutbox !!

I've just installed a shoutbox on my blog. It's called shoutmix, and more importantly it's a Award Winning Malaysian made widget.

I've been selecting among few chat widget to install, namely meebo, cbox, shoutmix, plugoo, zoho chat.

• cbox - this is the first one that I found, the website looks too simple to me. So I proceed to find the next alternative.
• plugoo - I thinks it looks promising, because it can link to my IM, I installed with linked to my gtalk. But after I tested, it's more a IM than shoutbox, I wanted the message to left on my blog instead.
• zoho chat - So, I move on to the next this one. Anyway, I don't like it because it needs visitor to put in their name first before posting and looking at previous post. I prefer those allow direct put in name and chat.
• meebo & shoutmix - meebo and shoutmix is the last two options for me. I choose shoutmix mainly because it's made by Malaysian, but it does offer all the features that I need. Simple interface, shoutbox (that stored previous message), fast loading time.

So, please leave your message there, I will definitely reply you.
