Crawl.

I have not been updating regularly simply for one reason. I can't seem to be able to get into blogger. I find something strange has been going on. I could quite easily get into MalaysianInsider, MalaysiaToday and MalaysiaKini which were sites that used to give me headaches but not blogger.

I had to wait for countless minutes to get into my own blog or for that matter any blog under the blogger umbrella. Wordpress was not that tough. Hmm, I wonder why.

I would believe that its my PC thats causing this crawl but even my friends laptop found it difficult. Now this is puzzling. Anyone has any idea?

I am so uased to firefox but when firefox made me wait for a lifetime I tried Explorer and it got a little bit better but still its almost dial-up speed.

Then I remembered I once downloaded the Opera browser and tried it and it got a little bit better but with a download speed of between under 1Kb and 5Kb, its still slow. This is a rare occasion where I got to get in reasonably easily. I do not know how long it will take to publish. I guess I just got to try to find out.

If I had not left any comments on blogs that I usually don't miss, I hope this post explains it all. Maybe after this, I got to get this thing reformatted and if it still persists after that then I will prove my fears right. What is my fear? Somebody has been doing something to slow things up.

Well anyway, I just read somewhere that Singapore, our neighbour, the one that our Government said sells fuel at much higher cost than us has brought down the price by 10 cents a litre.

Thats interesting because I know of late the price of crude has been hovering under US129. If I am not wrong, the government said that, the price of our fuel now would follow the market price so its time for it to come down here too but still no announcements.

Well I am going to publish this and hope that it won't take me till the next election to see it up. Cheerio, have a nice day.

kata tak nak..You need to reprogram you computer.
How else do these programmers going to earn a living?
That is why....Bill Gates ..retired .so young to do charity work.
He created Microsoft...and the bugs..to become the richest man on Earth.....so goes the saying ..in the computer world.

And your programmer may advise you to upgrade your..computer .mother boards.
That may cost you a bundle!!

Salam Che'gu,
Saya tak boleh nak beri pendapat tentang kelambatan blogger tu, takda pentahuan lansun.
Tapi tentang nak turun harga minyak tu, biasanyalah, nak naik melompat, nak turun merangkak.

Cikgu, I don't think Pak Lah and his kitchen cabinet will ever consider bringing down the fuel price, they are not here to take care of the rakyat but instead to pump riches into their family coffer. They will grab their chance, which will never come the second time around.Rakyat can go to hell!!!

Not only Singapore brought down their petrol price down by 10 cent which is 24 sen in Malaysia, the speed of their broadband is F1 standard.

Hi Cikgu
Is your puter short of memory? I am not very IT savvy but pick up stuff from my son. I use Safari as browser.
Our streamyx is just hopeless .. they keep advertising but don't think of upgrading .. so geram la! Wow .. is our petrol price coming down in line with our neighbour? When they hiked the price they compared our price to Singapore.

Salam cikgu
Dealing with IT has always thought people to be a little more wondrous and yet it can also caused our blood go upstairs ... u know!!!

The usual Malaysian Government, slow.. slow.. slow... Even the siput crawls faster than them..

Cikgu,
Pertama sekali ialah prestasi Taik Minyak Streamyx (TM) yang juga bersifat flipflop.

Kedua ialah host yang besar seperti Blogger.com melayan berjuta request (agaknya) dengan berapa banyak subdomain (e.g. katataknak.blogspot.com) sedunia. Ada depa kata macam Peter principle ka apa ka...makin banyak kerja kena buat makin gabra. Yang wordpress.com tu ok sikit sebab subsriber dia tak lah terlalu ramai macam blogger.

Chegu.
Migrate ke Wordpress la pulak. Tapi boleh panggil blogger ke kalau guna wordpress?

Kerp (Ph.D) said...

i cant offer any solution cikgu but i can assure you crossing over to other blogs is the least you should worry about.

maybe like me, its about time you replace the machine with a new one?

Salam Cikgu,

You're not the only one having problem with firefox as I too experienced it and still does now - there's a new release 3.01 which have made previous release incompatible to blogspot - you need to upgrade. Even then, there's still glitches now and then, am having to use IE which I do not quite like.

Monty,
Yes, I am planning of reformatting. Yesterday I tried to acess my blog in school it was fast, so it must be my stupid PC which is clogged la but still I wonder why only blogger.com is slow while the rest is okay?

Unknown said...

Zabs,
Sekarang ini saya bukak 3 browser di muka ini so that buleh komen cepat si8kit sebab bila nak jawab pun punya la seksa.

Biasanya bila naik lambat tapi turun cepat tapi kita lain, nak naik sangat laju nak turun sunggoh liat.

anonymous,
If he doesn't bring it down fast then he is making a grave mistake.

Unknown said...

Frankie,
Now that you mention it, it reminds me of something. When they say Sing lowers the price they will say by 10 cents singapore, but when they say singapore hike up they will say by 24 sen. See how these bastards operate.

Unknown said...

Fergie,
I think my 1G Ram is quite okay, maybe all clogged up coupled with Streamyx's ridiculously low speed, I am having a headache,
Pak Lah better bring it down. He is already suffering very low approval down bring it down any lower.

Unknown said...

Mantra,
Yes, right now my blood is already upstairs. I am commenting using 3 browsers simultaneously just to buy time.
Not only is our connections slow, our broadband pun slow so Welcome to Malaysia

Rastom,
Tak tau la dengan depa ni. Bila la depa betoi2 nak bagi kita service for money. Lani kita hanya bagi kat depa money dan depa bagi service ala kadar.

os,
Memalukan MSC konon. Negara lain takada MSC tapi broadband speed dia F1, kita yang boasting tentang MSC, haprak saja.

Unknown said...

Zawi,
Wordprogger kot? hehehehe

Unknown said...

Kerp,
Thats the worst part. I don't have any princess who is willing to give me a laptop. Er, do you have Bill Gates' number?

Unknown said...

Shah,
I think I have SAFARI stashed somewhere. I'll try to re-install that and see. Gila la ini macam. Bisa bikin gue capet begini.

Ok saya bagi solution baik punya sebab saya ada banyak jugak blog dok update ... Cikgu boleh guna Windows Live Writer download di http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/ atau kalau cikgu guna MS Words 2007 boleh klik news blog post.

Support semua jenis blog dan boleh tulis draff secara offline dan publish bila dah ok. Tips daripada saya lah ...ok selamat berblog
