I had quite a hard time trying thinking of the categories I should have.

Online

1. Started felixker.com as a blog writing about everything that caught my attention; topics include news, technology, love, media, money, tips & tricks, web links & many more. (Yea, alittle about SEX too.)
2. Modified & made 2 WordPress themes – Widgets-enabled Three Columns Kubrick Theme and Curved 3-Columns WordPress Theme
3. Got myself 2 Virtual private servers (VPS). One in Singapore, for SGBloggers & Modish Media and another in New York (Named after a gorgeous lady I met – Melissa) for Web & DNS Hosting.
4. Decided that I should provide WordPress Blog Hosting (So gossipy). Yet to do any marketing for that site yet.
5. Sponsored blogs – Edwin’s Blog, Anna’s Blog (ritzily Stylish)
6. (Almost) Daily Twittering became my habit – twitter.com/felixker
7. Switched to use felix[@]ker[dot]sg as my main contact email and MSN. Old emails are still checked, but just less often.
8. Formally using Internet Explorer 7 to read news/blog/web feeds, recently I upgraded to using Google Reader. (May consider trying Bloglines next year!)
9. Joined Ping.SG and started pinging my blog for attention!

Can’t think of anything else. Do you know something I did in 2007 that’s worth mentioning? What have you done in 2007 that u think is worth sharing?

Here’s the reason why I’m always so poor, and sometimes dad complains that I spends too much for particular month; August is one of them. After I get my cheque by Google, then the amount I spend will be lesser. The amount I get paid for displaying ads isn’t enough to account for all my web hosting accounts!

I won’t write too much details to bore you.

Yes, this is the amount I spent last month.

I don’t even get paid for 1/3 of what I spent. Your donations are always welcomed.

I’m looking for semi-budget web hosting or VPS. It’ll require around 5-50GB of bandwidth monthly. As for disc space, we’ll go with 1GB to 10GB. Preferred server location: Singapore/Malaysia.

Currently I’m on a web hosting that gave me 97.144 uptime and it’s real bad. It’s often facing downtime at weekends or at peak hours. Uptime for August is 96% although August has yet to end. It’s very bad.

I’m not going to list any budget now, but I hope prices can be as low as possible.

Anyone has any hosting firms to recommend? Contactable via Comments/Email – felix (aatt) ker . sg (aatt = @)

P.S Currently I’ve got Skydio for my own blog. They’re quality (99.9% or 100%), but they’re too costly for another site!
