4 months Silence of non-Posting!

April 2nd, 2008

My apologies for the 4 months silence without any posting being done. You would be wondering what happened or thinking that this website is just another ….. (whatever comes to your mind).

Actually, the website wasn’t in total silence. If you access it frequently, you would have noticed the website was under maintenance and the theme of the website had changed number of times. I’ve wrote few articles which are still in draft and have not published them due to reason which I will layout.

As for the Web Application, the development is going slow and, yes, due to some of the reasons.

So, here are the reasons for the silence:

  • Busy with projects/work that need priority attention. Well, I’m not a salary earner and need to find ways to make sure that I will have meals on the table everyday three times a day and able to pay my monthly bills, petrol, business expenses with clients and others expenses. Most of the work is writing proposals, preparing quotations for clients and creating samples. Too bad most of it did not materialized.
  • Meeting Clients. Most of the potential clients that I have to meet are mostly from the capital and I’m staying about 1 and a quarter hour drive away from the capital. The result? Same as previous reason.
  • A money making website, which I’ve drafted, discontinued due to lack of support from their sponsors and the number of subscribers were enormous. I’ve stopped drafting about the website when they announced that they were having problems with their sponsors and were resolving the issue. Well looks like they were unable to resolve it as the website is no longer to be found. I’m just pity to those who spent most of their time and recruited lots of new subscribers under them - thinking that they would able to earn thousands of dollars a month from that website. Due to this, I’m going to make sure that those money-making websites, I’ll be recommending, will not end up the same way.

I’ve just realized that yesterday was 1st of April. So, regarding yesterday’s posting on “Zoom! Broadband Promo“, it is nothing to do with April’s Fool. To assure you, I’ve subscribed Zoom! Broadband last week and got the notebook, modem and other free stuffs. I’ll discuss this on a later post.

Now back to the current issue. Well, hope you understand my situation and bear with me till the end. From now on, I’ll try to post at least an article per week or forth weekly since I can be online anywhere within Brunei.

Anyway, I have come up with ideas where you can help in supporting the development of the web application. So check it again soon.

Zoom! Broadband Promo

April 1st, 2008

First, the $99 3G phone promotion which sold like hot cakes two years back in conjunction with Hari Raya celebration (link). Now, this.

Bmobile Zoom! Broadband Bmobile Zoom! Broadband Promotion

You probably have seen these two advertisements over and over again since 26th March 2008. If you haven’t, better have a good look at it as this promotion will be ending soon either on the 4th or 6th of this month or while stocks last. Will bmobile going to score this promotion for the second time? Only time will tell.

The promotion:

  • Only $45 per month where normal plan is $59 per month
  • Free 2GB of data transfer (download + upload) usage per month, if exceeds, $0.50 per MB. But if your total amount exceeds $99, you only pay $40 ($99 - $59) for the extra which is equivalent to unlimited usage.
  • Get a free Dell Vostro notebook (worth $1588)
  • Get a free 3.5G usb modem (worth $300)
  • Free notebook carrying bag (only for first 250 subscribers)
  • Connection speed up to 3.6Mbps
  • Able to connect anywhere you are within bmobile coverage

The catch -

  • If you have Baiduri Bank Credit Card, you have to pay $2160 within 2 years for the 0% installment i.e $90 per month.
  • For cash or other credit card payments, you have to prepaid the full amount - $2160.
  • Contract term is 4 years.

They have another plan with payment of $69.90 per month ($1667.60 - full payment) for a 2 years contract and you will still get the free notebook and modem.

Is it worth the money? It depends on how you see it. For more details, check bmobile website here or drop in their booth just in front of at Cheez Box, The Mall.

So what BruneiSME.com is all about?

November 29th, 2007

First and foremost welcome to BruneiSME.com weblog. This weblog is a work in progress, but I hope it will bring everyone closer to BruneiSME.com on a personal and professional level.

So what BruneiSME.com is all about? I’m actually referring to the services that will be provided by BruneiSME.com not this weblog ;). BruneiSME.com will be providing online business marketing tools to deal businesses in Brunei as its services. These services will cover all aspects of electronic businesses namely; Business-to-Business (B2B), Business-to-Consumer (B2C), Business-to-Government (B2G), Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C), etc. I wouldn’t say such services are not available in Brunei nor they are unique but these services do consist of the basic marketing tools like banner advertisement, product/services listing, company listing etc. The differences will be the interaction, automation, control, convenience and secure.

The idea came around in late 2003 but the development of this application started sometime in September 2007 and is being developed by a lone developer. No, you didn’t misread neither am I joking about it. Based on current situation, I cannot afford to hire developers so have to develop the application myself. Not to worry, I have the required knowledge and good at it as well. The only factors are time and money.

Again, the weblog and the BruneiSME Web Application is a work in progress and many changes and progress are planned. Feel free to register and make a comment as I would like to hear your feedback. And stay tuned for some great things heading your way. Be sure to bookmark the page for future references.

Thank you all!

BruneiSME Weblog

November 15th, 2007

Welcome to BruneiSME Weblog.

Finally, the first weblog i have ever posted. I’ve been naive in creating a weblog for any of my web development and this is the first ever. Besides being naive, my nature of laziness is also the reason ;). If you are like me, NO MORE EXCUSES!

“Everyone is doing it and it’s considered part of web trend in providing extra information regarding the latest on your website or something you’ve came across that you would like to share with others.”

Besides, it helps to promote your website as Weblogging or Blogging or Journaling is very search-engine friendly.

Introduction

This Weblog will touch on BruneiSME.com Web Application and information on business related as well as getting free stuffs and side-incomes. Other general information will also be touched on.

So, what is BruneiSME.com about?

Stay tune for more………
