The Blogger Hiring Company is Testing New Site
Filed in: Malaysia, Weblog — June 3rd, 2005
(duh… I should sleeping now and waiting for tomorrow(later) trip to Singapore.)
Follow up the first Malaysia company hire blogger, I just discovered the company’s (Enche Marketing Sdn Bhd) test website with blog. The site title read “The Nation’s Online Premier on Blog, News & Directory”.
Review
Sorry to say that, I think the company also need to hire a web designer. Frankly, I CAN do a better design than that, though I am not a designer. Also, the blog page is not Firefox friendly.
Seems like they write the blogging system from scratch. I wonder why do they want to spend times to write the blogging script, while there are many available for free out there. Plus, their blog script is really… 
One thing that annoyed me very much is that it copied my blog entry content, yet does NOT give me credit NOR link back to my site.
That’s bad. 
Thought:
No idea whether they have hired the fulltime blogger or not. Hopefully they will improve the test website alot before launch.
Remember, link back where you quoted!

Don’t be so angry, dude.
It’s just a testing page only.
I believe after they have tested the site, sure they will remove it. Otherwise, blog here and tell people how bad they are.
By the way, I also cannot understand why they do not want to use some great open source blogging script. Build from scratch is always hard, why don’t they enhance some existing script, huh? Anyway, people are running their own business, what can we do? Keep quiet and see loh. Haha….

that blog script is not build by them. i notice the link to that blog has this “nanopress” thing, so i decided to google it out. And, i did found nanopress, a simple full featured ASP blogging script.
