I know that I am late with this post but hey! NETFLIX is finally allowed in Singapore. I know some of you guys will use VPN to bypass the "region" lock but for those who didn't do that, you are now able to join in the fun.
For you people that do not know what is NETFLIX, is just a streaming site that have lots of contents (From movies to TV shows). They will charge you on monthly based which is SGD$10.98 but right now, you can sign up and have your 1st month free! If you do not like it, you can unsubscribe it and no charges will be impose on you.
TOP 3 UPCOMING SHOWS ON NETFLIX (MUST WATCH)
1) DAREDEVIL SEASON 2 - 18 MARCH 2016*
I have always been a fan of Super Heroes type of shows, hence is not surprising that DareDevil will be in my recommended list. DareDevil was released last year on NETFLIX (only) and i was hooked to the show after the 1st episode. It is not your typical heroes type of shows, it is much more DARK in terms of genre and also much more realistic in terms of real world living. The Camera movement in this show is not that great, too much shaking for my liking but the story compensate that totally. I am totally excited for the season 2! You guys can also check out Jessica Jones. (They are in the same city - hells kitchen)
2) HOUSE OF CARD SEASON 4 - 4 MARCH 2016
I would compare this show to Suits but not as a lawyer but a politician based genre. You see see how ruthless you need to be when you are a politician and will realized that corruption is a norm. (yes in real life too). House of card character are top notch, where you will feel that anger, the sour, the sadness and everything else. You will know how hard it is to be one too. haha.
You will definitely love this show, so be sure to watch it from season 1! NETFLIX is with you.
3) ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK - 17 JUN 2016
Orange is the new black is a black humor type of show, if you like Breaking Bad, you would definitely like this too. This is definitely not a normal type of show you that would watch with a kid, so be advise (Mature theme yo)
I wouldn't say this is a comedy genre, but you would definitely find it funny when you are watching the show. There are definitely some romance going on in it which you will feel the pain or joy of the character. Give it a go if you are running out of show to watch, you will like it slowly.
Thank you for reading, hope you guys will find my recommendation helpful. I will be recommending shows that i am currently watching halfway on my next post. Stay tune to it!
When i watch a movie and they would always use those very high tech stuff, it will make me so envy and i will always be hoping that such technologies exist. Well, Microsoft announced something that lead us to a step closer to that - The Microsoft HoloLens.
I have uploaded a video of me talking about this topic. Be sure to check it out.
Viewing your favorite soccer channel on the wall, checking your recipe just infront of you, and even pin note on the fridge. SO AMAZING!
When you are reading something, it will display all those information on the web to your table. This is very helpful when you are study for your exam. You do not need a laptop beside you, just the headset will do.
You can pin lots of stuff in your room and maybe watch a show when you are lying down.
Right now, we need to wait for more further information about the product itself. The cost, the battery life and it will communicate with your other Window's devices. I am so excited for 2015, this is just only the start of the year and there are so many new cool gadget. I do believe that this is the year where more of virtual reality gadgets will start to surface.
Tell me : Do you think having this Microsoft Hololens will make your life easily?

WhatsApp has dominated the instant messaging industry for a very long time. It is so popular that almost everyone that uses a smartphone will have it installed on their phone. WhatsApp has now launched a web-based client, so you can finally use WhatsApp on your PC and sync with your phone.
It is so convenient for those who always leave their phone somewhere else while using their computer. The only thing that i dislike due to lack of iOS support, but i guess they need to ask permission from Apple before allowing iPhone users to use.
"Our web client is simply an extension of your phone: the web browser mirrors conversations and messages from your mobile device — this means all of your messages still live on your phone"
If you hold a smartphone that enable you to scan that QR code. You can just click on the + sign, like how you want to create a new chat, and select the WhatsApp web.
This will enable you to scan the QR code on their website ( https://web.whatsapp.com/ ) Remember that you have to use Chrome in order to go to that link, as they only support chrome. It will sync right after you scan the QR code and tadaaaa, you are able to use your computer to chat on whatsapp. it is that simple and fast.
What you can do on WhatsApp Web:
The web interface lets you do a number of useful things:
Use your keyboard to type.
Access media (photos, videos, audio) in-line. You can also download any media directly to your PC.
Start a new conversation with any contact, or search for existing conversations.
View contact info.
Talk in group chats and view group info.
Connect multiple computers to your phone and save them for the future. You can also remotely disconnect any browser from your phone.
Get or mute desktop alerts and sounds.
Share photos, record audio, or use your webcam.
what you can't do on WhatsApp Web
The web interface is limited in a few ways:
Emojis aren’t mapped to your keyboard, so you’ll need to manually add them using the emoji keyboard available in the web interface.
You can’t start a new group chat or leave an existing group chat from the web interface.
It’s not possible to share contacts or maps via the web interface.
You can’t block users directly through the web interface.
You can’t change your profile picture or profile status.
You can’t use two browsers at the same time. While you can add multiple browsers/PCs to your phone, you can only use one at a time.
Is it safe?
WhatsApp claim that they use the same security protection on the web, which is also the same encryption that used on phone too. Unless you are sending dirty messages, nude photos, or planning some bad activity, you have nothing to fear.
Another News that relating to WhatsApp is WhatSim. WhatSim slides into your phone like a regular SIM card, but that’s where the similarities end. The company says it can connect to 400 carrier networks in 150 countries, and automatically latches on to the nearest one. For €10 (€5 in some countries) you get unlimited WhatsApp text messaging. Sending video, photos and voice messages costs extra, meaning you’ll have to recharge WhatSim with credits to get the full experience.
Right now, WhatSim focusing only in Europe, along part of Africa, the Middle East and South America. WhatSim is not affiliated with WhatsApp, as this is the brainchild of Zeromobile founder and CEO Manuel Zanella, who has been working on to lower mobile phone bills over a decade.

Just recently at the IFA 2014, Motorola have announce the next flagship for both Moto G and Moto X.
The real question remained - Are they worth your time and money ?
Moto X and Moto G are a prove that you do not need lots of software tweak or a high end specification to compete in the current smartphone market. Lot of consumers agreed that both Moto X and G gives them a very good experience in using it. Maybe it's the next closest thing to Nexus devices which give you the pure android experience.
We all have to agree that those software that Samsung, Htc and LG pre-loaded with are mostly gimmicks. Some of the software they implemented that you don't really even use it.
Let's move on to the Specification for Moto X (2014) and Moto G(2014).
Moto X :
Design:
The design for moto X are beautiful. A nice curve at the back make your gripping very comfortable and also easy to use one handed. The speaker for the phone are shifted to the front, similar to HTC but it's not dual stereo speaker. The top is your It comes with the smooth plastic cover or the leather cover. *For the leather cover, it's best to avoid getting it wet because it will start to tear off easily*
Screen Display:
With its 5.2Inch Display (140.8 x 72.4 x 9.9mm) and weighing at 144grams. It's heavier than the predecessor which is kind of expected as you are getting more screen real estate. The phone resolution also finally being bumped up to 1080p and 423 pixels per inch which making viewing videos and scrolling through picture a great experience.
Software:
Compared to Google's Nexus devices, Moto X doesn't run the Purist form of Android. Like i say at the start of the post, is the closest thing that you can get. It has Android 4.4.4 KitKat, and Motorola also said that when Android L is available, you can update to it. Similarly to the previous Moto X, the digital and search assistant, Moto Voice, works like Google Now. You can activate it with your voice command. You can name your phone too, and wake him up by the nickname that you gave. - For example: Hey Frank, what is the weather forecast for today.
You can also ask the phone to take selfie and it will bring up the front facing camera and start to countdown for a picture. There are tons of things that you can do with it. Treat it as a smarter Apple's Siri.
According to the reviews by MKHB, there are also 4 sensor around the front of the phone. This is the reason why you are able to wave your hand to check notification or to silence your incoming call. It's pretty darn cool. There's also Moto Assist, which adjust your device's setting depending on where you are. (Meeting, at home, driving or sleeping)
Camera:
The Camera has also jumped from 10 to 13 megapixels, and able to record video in slow motion and in Ultra HD 4K. It doesn't have lot of camera software but all those normal software is sufficient in my opinion. The front facing camera is 2-megapixel and able to record in 1080p HD video, but panoramic shooting and control focus are disabled. You are allowed to take pictures while shooting video as well as pausing the live recording. The Camera is not as fantastic as the other smartphone, but how can you complain for the price tag like this?
Performances:
The Moto X's processor (SnapDragon 801), is not the latest but they are fast enough to use. According to the most of the reviews, the phone is snappy and very fast for day to day uses and no visible lag. It is also powered by a 2300mAh Battery, the phone has a reported talk time of 17 hours and a standby time of 10.4days. According to most of the reviews, the battery is decent, but the improvement is not significantly. The reason should be due to the 1080p screen.
Conclusion:
Even though this phone doesn't packed with the latest processor or the latest software tweaks, this phone still has amazing screen for you to watch movie with. You are able to play the latest game or using most of app like facebook, instagram or twitter without any lags. It's bundle with 2 years contract for the US carrier AT&T and at a price point for USD $100 (I not very sure about this) and you can get the unlocked version at USD $499.99 on Motorola website. If you want a phone that is customizable, this is phone will be your top choices.
*For my Singapore's readers. - It's not available in singapore. But you are able to buy it on the Motorola website or other mobile phone retails. The price should around SGD$568 ++
