Guess Guess Guess..... Guess what is on the picture? Any idea?
Let me tell you. It's Google logo. Those are the Morse code. What is Morse code? Let's see what it is written in Wikipedia.
Morse code is a type of character encoding that transmits telegraphic information using rhythm. Morse code uses a standardized sequence of short and long elements to represent the letters, numerals, punctuation and special characters of a given message. The short and long elements can be formed by sounds, marks, or pulses, in on off keying and are commonly known as "dots" and "dashes" or "dits" and "dahs". The speed of Morse code is measured in words per minute (WPM) or characters per minute, while fixed-length data forms of telecommunication transmission are usually measured in baud or bps.
Originally created for Samuel F. B. Morse's (April 27, 1791 – April 2, 1872) electric telegraph in the early 1840s, Morse code was also extensively used for early radio communication beginning in the 1890s. For the first half of the twentieth century, the majority of high-speed international communication was conducted in Morse code, using telegraph lines, undersea cables, and radio circuits. However, the variable length of the Morse characters made it hard to adapt to automated circuits, so for most electronic communication it has been replaced by machine readable formats, such as Baudot code and ASCII.
The most popular current use of Morse code is by amateur radio operators, although it is no longer a requirement for amateur licensing in many countries. The International "Morse Code" used today is correctly called the "International Radio Code". This is due to the fact that the modern code in use today has been modified from the original code invented by Samuel Morse- in order to make it more usable in modern communications. In the professional field, pilots and air traffic controllers are usually familiar with Morse code and require a basic understanding. Navigational aids in the field of aviation, such as VORs and NDBs, constantly transmit their identity in Morse code. Morse code is designed to be read by humans without a decoding device, making it useful for sending automated digital data in voice channels. For emergency signaling, Morse code can be sent by way of improvised sources that can be easily "keyed" on and off, making Morse code one of the most versatile methods of telecommunication in existence.
So, now you know what is Morse code?

Remove Pirated CD From Your Car
These few days, my friend keep reminding me to remove the pirated CD from the car, even those Cd that you burn yourself. The police is very strict along the coastal highway. If there is a road block and they found the CD in your car, you will get fine.
I am not sure is this happening in other state. Anyone knew about this? Anyway, just to be safe, for those who lived in Penang, try to remove all the pirated or burn CD from you car. I just removed mine.

Get Scolded by Mei Wah
I have been crazy over Facebook's game recently: Mouse Hunt and Restaurant City. Mouse Hunt is recommended by my friend and Restaurant City is recommended by Mei Wah.
There is one day when I chat with Mei Wah. I asked her to join Mouse Hunt and at the same time, she asked me to join Restaurant City. I joined but seldom play. That time, I am concentrate more on Mouse Hunt. Later, many of my friends joined and we are addicted to it.
Last night, Mei Wah asked scolded me, saying that I keep on playing games until I never update my blog and seldom chat with her. Hahaha. I admit I have abandoned this blog again. What to do, I am crazy over these 2 games.
Actually, she is not really scold me. She is just saying that I am too addicted. Beside the game, I must also update my blog. I know I know....... Sorry ya. :) See, I am updating now. Haha.

Website Hosting
I am sure many of you know that I have other blogs beside this My Mood My Feeling. With multiple domains, I need to have a better web hosting to host all my domains. I need to get one web hosting that is very reliable and good in customer service. To me, customer service is very important. If I am facing any problem with the hosting, I need to get someone who can fix the issue for me immediately, no matter what is the time. Therefore, I have selected one web hosting with the 24x7 customer service.
If you are in the middle of selecting a website hosting, you need to make sure what criteria you need the most. Try to look for all web hosting that you are interested and compare each of them. Once you have the decision, then only sign up for it. Please bear in mind, don't simply sign up a web hosting before any research is being made. This is just my 2 cents.
Web Hosting Geeks has all the information you need in helping you on the web hosting selection. On the main page, you can find the top 10 main web hosting for the year 2009. It lists out the rank, web hosting provider, features, bonus features and hosting review. Those information are very useful, especially for those who really cannot make the decision which web hosting to choose. If you want to read more, you can try to check out the blog session of Web Hosting Geeks.
