The HDC-SD5 hi-def camcorder can copy recordings from the SD Memory Card to a DVD disc, maintaining the original full-HD format, or use the included software to burn a full-HD recording from an SD Memory Card to a DVD disc on your PC.Images recorded by conventional HD camcorders have only 1,440 horizontal pixels, while full-HD camcorders have 1,920; that’s about 30 percent more recording pixels! The result is a level of detail and resolution that goes beyond anything you’ve ever experienced before. And because full-HD recordings contain a vast amount of picture information, they look beautiful not only on high-definition TVs, but on standard-definition TVs as well.Camera shake happens. Unsteady hands, shooting while in motion: these factors can reduce the quality of your video. But Panasonic has developed its best-ever built-in Optical Image Stabilization, which compensates for hand-shake and helps keep your videos crisp, steady and blur-free.The HDC-SD5 comes with a world-class Leica Dicomar lens, fashioned specifically for high-definition digital camcorders. The superior craftsmanship of Leica’s advanced lens system captures stunning images and colors that look magnificent in HD. Combined with Panasonic’s advanced 3CCD system, which uses three separate sensors to capture and process light, you can relive your memories in lifelike detail on your HDTV screen.

Maybe you can check using this tool whether links on your blog are useless or not :

Useless Link Detector from Text Link Center.

What do you see after using this tool ?

So far I can find out, the link is suspected by Google as paid link or at least Google think useless for your reader :

1. Some links on your blogroll ! I know, maybe some of them is linked to your friends or family blogs (that perhaps have different interest with you as well as the topic you prefer to write)
2. All paid links
3. Some referral links
4. Technorati tag links
5. ….. You list here

I noticed also, those link using image (image link) and javascript will be excluded from the list.

I am not sure the tool give 100% information correctly, but you can use it as one of your reference. (And of course I will not remove the links considered useless blindly)

Beside those links, any other reason ?

Oh my God ! If you read my past post few months ago, I mentioned that I “copied” pagerank of this domain to another one. (At that time I can easily get pagerank PR0 to PR3 by made permanent redirect to the new domain). This domain pagerank even increased to 4 Few months ago, I tried to use back this domain till now (like you see now)

But all above story just left as story. Google took back the “borrowed pagerank”, and divided it evenly for both.

I know some people very happy with pagerank increase, and they PLAN to sell links in those blogs after they got higher PageRank. Ironically, later on Google will push down them (like Google did to me ).I am really curious, what is the real cause of this update ? If due to selling links, how big it will affect ? If number of back link (you know already that Google is very stingy about it) how to weight of incoming links ?

I cannot answer … I am very happy if someone give me enlightenment about this

What does it mean ? Sure, I’m quite sad for this pagerank adjustment. But after that I know many popular blogs also got this adjustment. Some of the experts said probably Google trying to punish those blogs due to selling links in their site. Indeed, I sell link in this blog. Before the update, I have sold one link. After the update, one more link was sold. But, I have never sold any link in the other blog.

Currently I have no plan to remove those sold links. Maybe I never promote this site and never update properly. Probably I will do so if the decrement is continues One think I learn is, need to optimize my site on site and off one.

Other thing I realized, uncle Google has removed all back links to this blog ! So, this site has zero back link. Aaagh ..

As someone left comment in my previous comment that this mega giga space is just gimmick or other review said the plan is overselling, but it is still worth to play around with this space, you can add domains as well as MySQL database as many as you want. If you want, you can go ahead to use their service. So far, I myself found no problem with this hosting. When I wrote this post, Dreamhost give me 261880.000 MB of space and 5104 GB of bandwidth and I only use very small portion of them

Here is the address of each mobile line provider, most of the prices are with 2-year contract. You may find the price from the same provider for the same brand and type is different, depend on the contract price plan.

1. Singtel,
2. StarHUB
3. M1

For non contract price, maybe you can visit to HardwareZone website. Some retailers put their price in this website. Maybe not so accurate to find which is the cheapest one because only two or three retailers, but I think still useful for reference.

If you have any more comprehensive information from other website, please do not hesitate to leave your information in comment section below.

With The OneSIM Indosat, you can now stay contactable on both your StarHub Mobile number and an Indonesia mobile number from Indosat with just one mobile phone regardless of whether you are in Singapore or Indonesia.

They offer better pricing scheme for calling Singapore from Indonesia compared with the normal one without OneSIM. Almost all the prices cut by 20% but with additional SGD 5 for service fee. I think it is good news for those Starhub subscribers who traveling to Indonesia frequently. I currently subscribed to Starhub as a Hubber but I didn’t use the Starhub line but my wife. Unfortunately, she is a Telkomsel’s subscriber and it is “very difficult” to switch to other GSM providers, including Indosat. Even the price is cut by 20%, she still prefer to use VoIP 01017 for Telkom / Telkomsel that much cheaper to call me in Singapore. So we still keep to use OneSIM for OneNumber .

Why I don’t just put all the contents into the new domain ? The reason is due to google and other search engines already indexed this website since three years ago, now main page of kukuh.com already get Google Pagerank PR4. I feel difficult to repeat the success of copying pagerank to the new domain.

Securing a domain name, especially under dot com is important nowadays. Domain names are very limited resources. That is why many people said that internet especially a good domain name (and unique contents inside) as virtual real estate. Even though there is a lot of other extensions beside .com,but I feel .com is the best one especially for branding or commercial purposes where your targets are international market. But you still can go for other top level domain if you want, either generic or country code ones.

What I love so much from K810i is the Cyber-shot camera function. 3.2 Mega pixel is enough to get a good snap. It has built in-xenon flash with auto focus and shoot 9 pictures in 1 second. I plan to use the camera function more often when going out together my wife and my baby, so I do not need to bring a pocket camera anymore.

I am a fan of SD card, so due to this boy is Sony, I need to use their proprietary Memory Card, Memory Stick Micro(TM). I hate to insert additional memory card writer to my computer which is has SD card slot. This is one I do not like from this camera. I do not like to transfer using USB data cable also. Luckily, Bluetooth function is available.

I prefer Sony Ericsson graphic interface than my previous V3x, but the keypad is filled with very small rounded butons causing a bit difficult to type a message. This camera doesn’t support sending large file through email. It will resize the resolution to smaller one, not like my V3x.

The other feature is average. Battery life is similar with my previous T610. Regarding the sound, I haven’t really check the quality, coz I do not really like to listen music especially using earphone so I was not check it out.

Above are my personal biased comment of Sony Ericsson after 1 day usage. I will try to write about this phone in more detail in the future post.
