Link to us : http://sn.im/uwj8g

Hello, today i want to talk about why people blog. The main reason why people blog is like a diary for them but the difference is that it is online. People want to let others know what they have gone through daily and he or she is also interested to read people's blog. People think that blogs are intellectual and educational because people can learn by reading and also know more about your friends.

Some people blog in a way of them expressing their feelings. These are the people who does not really review their blogs for other people, they like to keep it to themselves and also go through things alone. There are also blogs by Dr. Mahathir, he wrote about his political thoughts and how he want to see the country improve. There are so many followers and those people are those who want to listen to them and believe that he is one person that can make a difference in the country.

Everyone in the world have rights to blog. There are a few blogs that have been blacklisted by it still keep appearing in the internet. This blog contain obscenity content in the blog which is gutteruncensorednewss.blogspot.com. Other than this sites, everyone CAN BLOG! you too can share your thoughts, vent, and complain to the public at large. There are lots of really smart bloggers who have interesting perspectives on the news, politics, sports, business, and many many more. These are the people you can't see in media such as TV or radio to voice out their opinion.

From my opinion, Blogging is one way to express you self only if it means no harm to your self.

Watching Movies on Youtube A 'No' 'No'!!

Link to us :http://snipr.com/us99w

The latest trend nowadays are not buying pirated CD's/DVD's. They are watching movies online! As we all know buying pirated DVD's is a crime. So what does watching movies online come under? Is it a crime?

Well whether or not it has been declared officially, watching movies online is equivalent to piracy. It may be an easier way for users but it brings a lot of disadvantages for movie makers. People who learn how to appreaciate movies should also learn about the people behind the scenes that go through hell to make one movie.



Example : “Zombieland currently the most pirated movie . Over one million downloads and counting.” - it only matters to certain degree that Zombieland earned triple its production budget; when you factor in marketing in promotion, that margin gets a lot slimmer and really, in the end, studios watch the much-lauded bottom line to measure how well their films have done. To guarantee a Zombieland 2, Sony was no doubt looking for Zombieland 1 to crack the triple-digit millions – a feat the film should’ve easily accomplished, if those one million people sitting at their computers had decided to drop 7-12 bucks to see the film in theaters, instead of 7-12 minutes downloading it illegally.

And now the fate of Zombieland 2 hangs in the balance, and that just SUCKS.


Youtube cannot consider it as an illegal activity because the movies are uploaded bit by bit, for those who really want to watch a movie, they would have to download 14 to 15 different parts. Dont you think that is a bigger hassle?.Watching clips and funny moments may not be such a crime, but watching movies should not be encouraged. This message goes out to the current generation that practically lives online. Buy original and be original!.

As expected, the language that is most prefered is English, followed by tamil and mandarin with an equal percentage.To our suprise, Bahasa Malaysia didnt make the cut at all.

English takes the lead with a strong 50% which is then followed by tamil and mandarin with an equal 25%. It is an known fact that the majority would prefer English. However being in Malaysia, what suprised me the most is that Bahasa Malaysia was not an option at all. Its can be appreciated that even online users prefer their mother tongue to be the prefered language.

Well guys there you have it, Week 6 poll results. Do stay in touch for out next poll. Keep Voting!

Movies Galore!

Link to us :http://snipr.com/upfkm

First it was watching new movies as soon as they hit out shores in Malaysia in the cinemas, then used to wait for the movie to come out in their original vcd's. Well that was way before pirated cd's and downloading came to the picture. To add another one to that list is watching movies online.

Yup, that's the latest thing that users on the internet like to do. Amongst the ones that I am familiar with is thepiratecity.org and one by the name of nabolister but I think they've changed their name to videolister, i wonder why
The Pro's

1. It's free of course. Most sites are free and they don't even require you to register before using. Some do require registration and some as always are not free.

2. It's fast - well that's if you have a high speed internet connection.

3. Hassle free - Thought it takes time to buffer and play the video, it doesn't require the user to download the video.

4. Space-saving - This method of watching movies saves space as you don't occupy your disk space as there is no need to save it on your computer.

The Con's

1. Takes time - Not many of us have high internet connections, thus it takes quite some time to load and watch. Some sites may also require you watch advertisements from their sponsors before the movie starts to buffer.

2. Problematic - Sites like this can be very problematic. Some videos may not load, files may be broken and some may not work at all. Sites like these takes lots of patience as a user has to keep trying again & again.

3. Clarity - Only once it buffers and play, then only will the users be able to know the quality of the video. Some video's may be not clear and some or should I say many will be scams and viruses.

4. Well the fourth is not really a con's but here goes : It's illegal - Many sites like this are illegal and don't have proper licenses to operate =]
