For the Virgins. You can collect your angpow from me later.

For the benefit of those who are new to the blogosphere, like me, this is what you should do to create a new post.



before i start, to create a new post means you are starting on a new topic, like making a new entry in the council diary. what michael did was to click on the "comment" link below yilin's post. usually you do that in response to the previous entry. however, if you wish to talk about something else, then create a new post is the way to go.



how to do it? when you visit the blog, notice the top right corner. sign in using "in_memory_of_wk@yahoo.com.sg" as username and type in Dr Toh's dialect name (toh******** without spacing) as the password (i'm not spelling it out here because this is a public blog).



once you are in, check top right again for "dashboard".after clicking on it, you should be able to see something like create/edit post. from there, it should be easy because the interface is like microsoft word. hopefully more of you can contribute to the content of this blog and keep the hwa chong/council spirit alive (wah biang eh!spare me!)



we also need new content to attract a critical mass, to create a virtuous cycle.when more people visit the blog, we attract more content and so on.....who knows? maybe we can be the next Mr Browns and Xiaxues. Then we can have advertisements placed on this blog and we get to share the profits.



My role is to kickstart it, so that's why you see many of my postings. Hopefully you guys hop in!



basically this is an open platform...you can share the latest stock tips, the hottest property to look out for, the technical specs of the latest car. but the more domestic and sedated ones like me can share with you baby stories, parenting tips, how to win over wife and influence the mother while being sandwiched between the two, you know, stuff like that. if you are interested in what I do as a living (in case some of you wonder why I have so much time to create so many new posts) , you can visit another blog of mine called www.greymatterphotography.blogspot.com


Meanwhile, congrats to Guochuan on the arrival of her newborn baby girl, Ashley. Hopefully, pictures to come!




For yilin, below is the unadulterated beauty of my girl. Watch that afro hair. Attitude.

all virgins shall use thy personal google accounts after accepting the invitation. pls do not fall into the trap of using the common account, else the credit of all postings will be claimed by that someone (aka Still_Here aka KC_Wong aka ???)!!

looks like xuee (pronounced as snow goose, and not "swee" as in the teochew dialect of beautiful) is the only one else that has signed in, where is the rest!!

and by the way my job in IT is partly to monitor the uptime of blogsites around the globe and here i am trying to test posts to ensure things are working. WHY ARE YOU HERE??@!!
