Good-bye, Mr. Chieng

Today is David Chieng's last day as editor of PC Magazine. After more than 3 years of existence the [insert-random-descriptor-here] IT magazine has stopped it's printing press for good.

David's been a fantastic contributor to the IT journalism scene and we hope he comes back soon.

But, for now, the whole Text 100 Malaysia team wishes you all the best, Mr. Chieng.

PS. we won't tell where you're going. :)

The FBI visits the media

Guess who???

Have you ever dreamt of being an FBI agent storming down doors and shout "FBI! Freeze!". Well just a few days ago i had the dubious honour of donning overalls with "FBI" inscripted on the upper left pocket. Why in the world would i do that you say? It was for the media drops for a client's event and we were on a "mission" to deliver invites to them for the event.


I must say i noticed the bewildered looks i get from people when i was walking around in my outfit. At least the editors were presently surprised by our little stunt. Some played along with the FBI drift and couple more were baffled of why we did it, but overall it was something different and i think the media appreciated the gesture.
I wonder what the next media drop will be like....
