2 years back, I thought using a blog provider would be good enough for me, instead of starting from scratch with a web hosting service.

 For some reasons, I have decided to move on, from economical and practical perspective. I will share more, but in the meantime, it means my blog will be intermittently inaccessible. nevertheless, Happy new year!

After maintaining my personal website (http://www.zenyee.com)for the past 2 years, the passion is starting to wear off. The need to maintain updated content, and updated portal platform, is killing me, and hence I am trying out a new strategy now …

Well, the strategy is simple. Instead of maintaining and updating the latest tool and software to improve the interface of the portal, I have decided to put my money on providers who will take care of the capability delivery, while I focus on updating relevant content.

But alas, there is not really one provider who meet all my needs, and the closest one is actually Multiply.com. Eventually, I put my money in a few provider. From now onwards, all the digital photos what we share, videos streaming that you watch, and the news article that you read, are provided by Fotki.com, VideoAddon.com, and Blog-city.com respectively.

Will this work? We will see. In the meantime, it's whole load of content migration from http://www.zenyee.com

Zenyee.com was initiated in 2002, to document all the car modification information. Year 2002 was a crazy year for my wife, Yee, and myself, particularly on the way how we non-stop modify our VW ride after owning it for a year. (yes! it's we, not just myself!) It's also the year where we started to get in touch with fellow Veedubbers, folks from the VW community.

Prior to Zenyee.com, there has been many attempt to create my own personal site. Not that I am not technically inclined, nor I lack of art gene (if you allow me to be bullish about it) to design a pleasant looking web site. An individual site, is almost like a commercial site, it needs alot of follow up activities to keep the site relevant. It needs alot of perseverance to keep the site running, instead of losing the interest after a month of effort.

Not that a personal site like Zenyee.com needs to stay relevant to keep the traffic coming, and to service its readers. A personal site, is afterall, personal. It needs not care about how others feel about the content relevancy or whether they are excited or interested about the content. Still, it need to stay relevant, particularly with regards to time. Zenyee.com, like most successful personal sites I presume, is like a cyber diary to Yee and myself. While there are at times moments of inner thoughts that we want to keep in privacy, there are alot of times, we just want to pen down our thoughts, and share with our family and friends because we think it's essential part of our harmony socialisation.

Anyhow, enough of chanting, let this be start of more thought-provoking articles to be shared. In the meantime, one thing for sure, the car mod page and content will continue to flood in, just couldn't come to terms with the thought that a car is just a transport!

Happy New Year!
