Isaac Mao in Singapore

Today I had the opportunity to play host for an informal event with a big name in blogosphere – Isaac Mao. This event was sponsored by I-D-A, and was a collaboration event between Singapore Internet Research Centre @ NTU, Entrepreneur27, SMU Information Systems Society and Student Technology Initiative (the one that I belong to).

One of the country’s early bloggers, he co-founded CNBlog.org in 2002 to evangelize grassroots publishing in China. Last year he organized the first Social Software Forum in China. He also led the team that developed Creative Commons China, which is part of the Creative Commons, co-founded by Stanford Law Professor Lawrence Lessig to expand the range of creative work available to share.

I’m sure some of you guys out there know what I am talking about. Here are the lyrics! Nostalgia nostalgia! 

My Super Sweet 16 – Aaron Reid

I just checked out MTV’s My Super Sweet 16 that featured Aaron Reid’s party. I must say that the entire setup to execution to the party itself just blew me away. C’mon, let me indulge in some reality shows once in a little while and think of myself as one of those rich, spoilt and bratty kids out there. I am already two-thirds of the equation with my spoilt and bratty portion but there’s still one more element of rich that I am still lacking in. I like to say not yet more so than admit never.
