Byte Me, Bangkok

Yeah see look what Tumblr has done to me. Honestly, if there weren’t blogger at the time, I would have started blogging on Tumblr.

The service is easy to use, pretty, multimedia-oriented and just look at the array of free templates on offer, they’re nowhere near the corniness of those offered by other free blogging sites. And you have complete control over the HTML so take that WordPress.com!

That’s why I got myself another Tumblr just so I could use it more often. There are good shots to be taken in Bangkok but nowhere near the number of complaints I have for Thailand’s incompetent IT world. So I thought I should spare Gnarly Kitty stumblers my geek rants and have a place for them specifically instead.

I got the idea when I was trying to get a hold of a human True Move customer relation person. Calling their customer service number and all you get is a prerecorded machine. To get to the human, you have to go to the menu that asks you to sign up or buy something. If only there was a way to throw my anger out into the world as I am sure I am not the only one having these murderous thoughts against Thai telecom companies.

After announcing it on Twitter I immediately got replies from people who feel the same way. And what do you know? I now have loudmouth opinionated geeks I got to know as co-authors who could help me make the posts stray a little further from Macs, iPhones and AIS. Well it will be balanced once they start posting something!

It’s been only two days and it already has more Tumblarity than my main one.
