I had earlier submitted my blog for review at Italk2much.com, well I got smacked just a few hours ago by “Princess Pottymouth”.. well not really as I didn’t get any smack at all.
First off thanks for reviewing by blog, as I am a frequent reader at Italk2much I know that’s possibilty that I would received some bad notes. I admit that I was a bit suprised that my blog could be so worthless, but anyhow notes taken and necessary changes on the way..
1. Malaysians.. well we got a bad name all over internet, people at Italk2much hated us and perhaps my title as a Malaysian blog already got me 3 negative smacks at the very beginning. Couldn’t help it, I am a Malaysian and proud to be it.
2. Boring and busy template.. which I kinda agreed. I am not artistic in any matter thus trying to use a good color combination is probably the best I can do. Changes made to the sidebar, which look a bit more tidy now.
3. Ugly post headers.. is it really ugly? I need second opinion as personally I like it pretty much. Ok save it, I probably won’t change the post header style even if everyone says it’s ugly.
4. Errww Google Ads.. I know I know peeps at Italk2much hate ads. Pardon me for being big head and want to make millions with my blog lol.. no intention to take away the ads whatsoever.
5. Contents.. standard Malaysian stuff.. which it’s meant to be boring I perhaps? Ehh what can I do to improve on this one? Nothing much, it’s me and my blog, unless I change my lifestyle and personality, it’s how it’s going to be I guess.
I can’t help linking Simon Cowell from American Idol with the Italk2much peeps, most of the time rude, half of the time right and some of the time wrong. Have fun.

You gotta remember though, if you submit your blog for their perusal you gotta imagine Americans/British ppl reading it. And they may not have an appreciation of all things Malaysian.
Things may make sense to you and me, but it’d be completely alien to them. Think of how much they loathe “lah”.
As far as the other parts of the critique is concern, especially when they relate to the design - they may be subjective but most of the time they hold water.
Anyway, blog on!

Thanks mooiness.. as said this is my blog and I am going to be who I am, even if it’s boring lol.. it’s me anyway.
I have no problem with IT2M review, some notes taken while some ignore.. it’s however good to see things from a different point of view.
btw in case anyone wondering, I do use Manglish once in a while, just not that frequent..

well… just follow some of their advice, but don’t follow EVERYTHING.
February 22nd, 2006 at 6:07 pm
ade.. I actually followed some of the bitches’ advice..
I change my title, I change my template and I change the post title format..
Something remains unchanged, I am a Malaysian, I will post what I like and yes I still using the freaking adsense.
