Hot-screensaver

THE NAME

I really love and enjoy watching Thescreensavers show which is aired on Astro, although those shows are very very old probably dating back to early year 2004. Thescreensavers was a very interesting talk show about the latest technologies, gadgets, tweaks, hacks and etc. It was owned by TechTV. However, someone by the name of G4 bought TechTV in middle 2004 and turned TechTV into G4TechTV.

Now, Thescreensavers was no more - instead you got Attack of the Show. A lot of Thescreensavers fans was not very happy with the new show, a lot of them missed Thescreensavers hosts, especially Leo, Yoshi, Sarah, Kevin, and Patrick. My favorite would be Kevin and Sarah.

Now, you have got the slightest idea why I choosed the name Hot-screensaver.com? Note: Hate the dash in the name, but otherwise are all taken

Hot-screensaver.com is my weblog for the Internet, technie, interesting stuff, Malaysia, random thoughts and life. Hope you enjoy visiting and do post your comments.

THE AUTHOR

My name is Neo. I was born in 1975. Am I too old for blogging? Hehe. Few years back, I kind of migrated to Kuala Lumpur and completed my bachelor of Information Technology in a local university. Thereafter, started my career as a Programmer, webmaster, web developer, software engineer, etc

Along the years, I have built and designed many websites that were work-related and not work-related. With each of these websites completed successfully, I built on my experience and learnt from the professional web designers. I soon discovered that I can do a bit of webdesign too on top of web programming - design using Photoshop mainly, but still have a lot to learn.

My top interest would have to go to badminton. I play two to four times weekly at places like Desa Petaling and Puchong. At my free time, if I am not playing badminton, I love to watch TV, watch movies, tweak with my computer, do some web design, and do some leisure reading.

My favorite TV channels are National Geographic and Discovery Channel. Some of their programs that I always enjoyed watching are Air Crash Investigation, Mega Structures, Seconds From Disaster, and Crime Scene Investigations. Other than these 2 channels, I also tune in to Star Sports, ESPN and Astro SuperSport. Perhaps, these few favorite channels of mine are what make me from discontinuing Astro.
