Like millions of you, I was amazed by the Beijing 2008 Olympics opening ceremony! Well done, China!

Here are some of the amazing scenes:

The flying Olympic rings — The first time we saw Olympics rings that fly. They seems like made up by thousands of stars… carrying by the angels.

Taiji performance by thousands — they have been practicing for year for the taiji performance. It is amazing that they changed different shapes yet the group is still neat and tidy.

By the way, the on floor electronic display is amazing! Who knows what is it?

In case you were wondering about the t-shirt I wore at the Webmaster Malaysia Gathering. It is “The Internet was closed…” which I bought on Threadless, an online t-shirt store with user submitted designs.

The text reads “The internet was closed so I thought I’d come outside today.”, with an arrow over the line.

The design is simple, plain text, or we call it “type tees”. But, I like it. It applies well to a fulltime blogger like me. In fact, the design is so popular that it is currently out of stock! You need to wait for Threadless reprints if you want to get one too.

I like to shop on Threadless because the t-shirt designs are unique and beautiful. I bought more shirts on Threadless than in shops.

Do you have other online tshirt store to be recommended? Preferable with geek designs.

P.S. I LOVE ThinkGeek tees but, too bad, they refuse to ship to Malaysia.

Last week, Syam did an interesting short interview with 5 Chinese online money maker. I was invited as one of the five, others are HongKiat, Chan Lilian, Wayne Liew and the popular John Chow.

The “interview” is so short that you only asked to answer 3 questions and they are nothing related to “make money online”.

1. If you in a soccer team, which position you like and why?
2. What color of your toothbrush and brand of your toothpaste?
3. Give me the 4 digits combination of your lucky/favorite number

You can found the answers at Syam’s post. I discovered that I am the only one not using white color toothbrush. LOL~

What would your answers be if you were asked the same questions? I am curious
