This image has been floating around Facebook and Twitter for a while now and I really got a kick out of it. I think this is the source of the image: Jay Mug – Stormtrooper Happiness

There’s a guy in Oregon, USA called Casey Hopkins. He runs a small industrial design and mechanical engineering firm who has always wanted to create and sell their own product but were unable to because of the high upfront cost and risk.

But now, because of me and 2,500 other people, we’ve made it possible for him to make the Elevation Dock for iPhone a reality.

The thing that made it possible is called Kickstarter, and is a website that provides entrepreneurs a platform to seek funding for their projects. There are all sorts of cool stuff on Kickstarter, and it’s been getting lots of press lately.

I’m glad that I managed to help someone make his idea a reality. Malaysia needs something like this.

Erna Mahyuni doesn’t mince words in her column on The Malaysian Insider about the proposed Computing Professionals Bill.

The Computing Professionals Bill 2011 was drafted by clueless people. That is the only conclusion I can make after reading MOSTI’s press statement in response to the backlash from the local tech community, and what the Bill’s “champions” have to say.

For the record, I think the bill is too vague and misguided to make a difference and agree with the opinion of the tech community that it will do more harm than good. The stated goal of the Bill (to raise the quality of IT professionals and practitioners in Malaysia) can and should be achieved by different means like better SLAs and accountability for high value IT projects.

Here’s one of the more clever Mac app that I’ve come across lately. TieSight is an app that helps you tie the perfect necktie knot using your Mac’s iSight camera. How cool is that?

I don’t wear neckties myself but I could see myself using this app. It’s also really affordable at only $0.99. Check out the official website or directly on the Mac App Store.

Here’s a version of the Think Different commercial narrated by Steve Jobs himself.

I think Steve ranks right up there with all of the other ‘crazy ones’. RIP Steve.

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure — these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. ~ Steve Jobs

Even in death, Steve inspires.
