This modem became useless after I switched to Singnet’s ADSL. This is not the actual photo (I had to take one from internet as I was too lazy to take out my camera again). But there’s hardly any wear and tear as all it did was sit around the corner.

I bought this for: S$99. Now I’m selling I sold it for: S$30.

I can’t remember where/when did I buy this from, or who did I “borrow” it from, but this is not a bad reference book if you are thinking of writing one. The contents however, maybe a bit outdated as it was written in 1997. That’s why I’m giving it away.

I bought this book out of impulse after listened to the author’s speech in one of those rah rah shows. Then I realized I couldn’t make much sense out of the book, maybe it’s because the book was written for people who have PhD (and I didn’t mean permanent head damage). Anyway, you can give it a shot, it did make me look good however every time I whipped it out and read in the MRT.

I can’t really tell how useful is this book because I didn’t really pick up speed reading eventually, maybe I need to read it again and read it slowly in order to learn the technique…

Anyway, this is written by the same gentleman who invented mind mapping technique.

If you are not sure when should you use “further” and when should you use “farther”, same goes for “long” and “lengthy”, you will find this reference book a great help. Citing thousands of common grammar problems. Did someone just say English is easy to learn?!

This is the first book on programming I bought, didn’t use it much though as shortly after I bought another one which is easier for me to understand. I guess this one is for more advanced programmers.
