Bloggers, We Care Each Other

Salam and hello everyone. This is a special entry dedicated to a campaign which is currently running by hundred of bloggers in the mission to help one of our friends, Megat. This campaign was inspired by Hydir in the mission to collect the donation to help Megat with his problems he is currently facing now. Megat is the nickname of Faisal Amirul Othman, who is a blogger too. Since he is mostly known as Megat in this blogsphere, I hope you don’t mind if I used his nickname in this blog entry. Anyway, you can give a visit to his blog here.

So, the purpose of this campaign as I’ve mentioned earlier is to collect the donation to help Megat solves the problems he is currently facing now. For details about what are the problems Megat currently facing, you can read about it in this entry “Tangisan Aku, Isteri dan Anak-anak” which was written by Megat a few days ago. Megat blogs in Malay, so I hope you can understand what he has written in that entry. To be honest, I’m the one of his blog readers start from last year when he was blog about his “unknown-mystery-disease” and continually follow his updates from that moment. Anyway, since he was not blog about his life about a few months ago, I thought his disease is already cured or maybe get better, but otherwise. When I read his entry about a few days ago, I realized that his life becomes tougher than I’ve ever imagined before.

So, how could you help Megat?

Salam and hello all. Have you listen to this song? This is the song that sings by a group of Malaysian artists called Malaysian Artistes for Unity (MAFU). For me, its a great song which shows the unity of Malaysian and a great collaboration among Malaysian artists. IMHO, the song itself is great; the video of the song is simple and funny but full of message in it. Honestly, I love this song. For the first time I listen this song at Fly FM, I already attracted with the melody and messages in it.

World Shutdown Day 2008 : Are you ready?

Hello all. Again for this year and for the second time, Shutdown Day is back! Do you dare and ready to take the challenge? And before that, what the challenge? It may sound simple things and some peoples may said “This is ridiculous! How come…bla bla..” BUT its not impossible to do it. Don’t say NO until you try first.

Ok, before that, what this Shutdown Day is all about?

Shutdown Day is a Global Internet Experiment whose purpose is to get people to think about how their lives have changed with the increasing use of the home computer, and whether or not any good things are being lost because of this.
.
The idea of Shutdown Day project is simple – just shutdown your computer for one whole day of the year and involve yourself in some other activities: outdoors, nature, sports, fun stuff with friends and family – whatever, just to remind yourself that there still exists a world outside your monitor screen.
.
Michael Taylor, the original partner in the idea of Shutdown Day, says
“I certainly could not and would not want to live without my computer. However, I am often drawn into spending hours chatting on MSN, simply because my friends are online instead of socialising face to face. I am often too busy to cook a proper dinner, because I want to see the latest news on digg.com or the latest YouTube video. I know parents who are so addicted to the computer that they spend little time with their children, and I also know children who do not spend time with their parents because they are always using the computer. We are not preaching to anyone to turn off their computers. We are just suggesting that people might like to take part in this experiment, and see what happens.”
