This is the kid I lost to. I was winning of course. But in my mind I was already thinking that the game was won and got overconfident. One mistake was all it took to erase all my hard work and advantage. Still won 4th place despite the loss but it certainly taught me a good lesson. Never be overconfident and think that...

Ok, it's not really a splog site. It's a "aggregator". Splog is such a nasty word :) Anyway, my chess aggregator site is not as bad as a splog as: I have the permission of owners to aggregate their site Unlike Planet Malaysia, I do not post FULL article post from their RSS feeds. Only excerpts are shown. Planet Malaysia also claims to...

Toosuperheroes blog post on curry puffs from Ikea reminded me of the 99 cents breakfast I had at Ikea. I told them about it and I'm surprise they don't know about it. For their benefit and also those who may not know, I'll repost it here again. It's the cheapest breakfast you can have. For RM 0.99 you can have some Mee and...

I made a new year resolution this year in general to be more organised. One of the things I've done religously was to document all the new blogs that I've created. In the past there I created so many new blogs that I've forgotten their URLs. Each one had Google Adsense on it so sometimes I received a spike but since no channel...

Yes I rank no.1 on Google for a single keyword. It's not an easy thing to do. What's the word? "Zerofied" Yeah I'm proud of that. The articles are about what to do with blogs that have been punished by Google with PR0 for various reasons like writing paid post and selling text links. Do you rank no.1 on Google for any keyword?...

Online advertising has taken off in a big way last year when several companies began to leverage blog advertising. Traditional media is being replaced by electronic advertisement which is becoming more and more effective as the newer generation practically spending a whole lot of time online. If you are a blogger with an established blog, you can really monetize it by going into...

I have more chess blogs than I can count on my fingers. But currently the one that is most active is http://blog.gilachess.com It's strange that I got into being a full time blogger because of chess too. The income that I made in the beginning from ads was pretty small and laughable. But as the years went, it really grew slowly. It reached...
