One of the biggest problems with taking video clips on smartphones is stability, especially when capturing clips while on the move. No matter how good the phone’s camera and software is or how skillful the user is, it’s near impossible to get jerk free videos while running. One solution is the gimbal, which is gaining popularity […]

Click and book airport run
Living near the airport has its pros and cons. While a trip to and from the airport is a breeze, taking a taxi back from the airport is an entirely different experience. Whenever I tell the driver my destination after boarding, the response often is stony black face or worst yet, sarcasm on a couple […]

Mango dessert that leaves one longing for more
Mention Swensen’s and memories of rich ice cream desserts decked with interesting sweet condiments come to mind.

Facebook took a hammering this week for sharing users personal data with a researcher, who in turn, shared it with Cambridge Analytica. This issue is said to impact about 50 million Americans. It’s also a good time for online shoppers to be more wary of sharing personal information online. In most apps and many sites, […]

Yummy and crispy coconut chips
Knowing how my family loves coconut chips, I made a beeline to King Power Duty-Free while on a quick transit in Bangkok. The shop is big and filled with shelves of local snacks. It took me a while to find what I was looking for — in a shelf inside the shop. I wasn’t familiar […]

Keep cool with Solove fan
Coming from a country with only two seasons — rain or no rain — the weather is relatively hot throughout the year. How I’ve always craved for cooler weather. In Singapore, it’s winter indoor and summer outdoor. The air conditioner keeps us cool in the home and office. However, with global warming and rising cost of […]
