Colorful, Bright... that's my Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year or CNY, is the most celebrated holiday in our home country (Singapore). And the best place to immerse in the holiday mood would be no other den Chinatown.

The colors, the buzz, the noise... Thats why it deserves a mention in theFadbuzz!

I was down at Chinatown over the week and took many photos of the sights, the colors and the people (but I really need to get a SLR for better pics).

Tell me my loyal Fadreaders, if a picture speaks a thousand words... what does a video say?




Interesting Fact 1: This year, CNY falls on the 7th of Feb, this changes every year as it follows the lunar calender.
Interesting Fact 2: Go down to chinatown and get to try free titbits as the sellers jostle for customers!
Interesting Fact 3: TheFadboy has a new hair cut! (I know, this is out of nowhere... haha...)

TheFadboy and his trusty laptop gave you this post.... Kudos!

MAC-ness!

"oops, i did it again."

once again, apple has wowed us with its new thinnovation, macbook air.



can't get enough of this mac-ness? take a guided tour with john!


thinnovation aside, let's see how mac stands out from its competitors!

back in 1984, we have mac challenging the biggest competitor then, ibm

in this round, we have ibm going into business solutions. so we proclaim apple as the winner!

how about the battle between mac and windows?


check out what gabriel schwarzer has to say!


jokes aside, the answer remains yet to be seen. but for entertainment sake, check out the whole series of pc-bashing here!

for all its creativity, here's a tribute to 30 years of mac!

Discover Musicovery

New year. Often a new beginning. In the midst of winter, we wait for spring. Birthdays, A number, add one. Firsts. Day of school. Day of job. We are excited about the new class. We dread making new friends. There are new subjects to learn, new exams to take. New jobs, new duties, new scopes, new goals. New clients, new projects, new money. Fresh starts. New decisions. New partner? New phase in life – marriage, divorce, child birth. New life. New land. New York, New Zealand, New Delhi. New lifestyles: food, films, hang-outs, trends, gadgets, MUSIC.

If you are like me, who thinks nothing of our local radio stations, and constantly seek for ear-candies which would inspire, you might just love Musicovery.



I know I already do. Happy New Year!
