the jaded cow presents
07/02/2007
I was called a jaded cow today because I did a lame “haha” instead of a “hahaha”.
I guess I am. Just like engineers find no fun in simply implementing a piece of software created by someone else, I find little joy in re-producing a product.
So I’m particularly pleased with our second newest kid on the block. It’s a little mish-mash, a little lifestyle, a little ugc, and a lot cheeky. And the best part is that it is a born and bred Singaporean. Not some weird import from Sunnyvale or Bangalore or London. Perhaps we’ll have a little more fun at the otherwise completewasteoftime annual awards ceremony next year.
The newest kid on the block is the completely spiffy feature my desk buddy, lil’P1, unveiled on her movies site. Not only can you review movies now, do a really good job and they’ll feature you! Totally cool, totally fun.
I hogged the morning launch spot, so she had launch in the afternoon. Great for us, but it must have been a completely crazy day for the RnR, Service and QA Engineers, and our resident webimp, Looey-gee. It’s been a particularly long time since I launched something locally, and it’s such a nice feeling to actually be able to interact face-to-face with the people who run the final and most important leg of the process. It was such a rush that I felt the residual nervous buzz wayyy into the evening. So did Ms Mads who had to bear the brunt of my bad behaviour.
I really enjoyed the process today. It was fun to get into the thick of things again, and perhaps it alleviated some of the humdrum, but I’m pleased for a change. Not quite content, the greedy bit in me wants more for our little ‘un, but I’ll be happy to take it a step at a time. For now.
To infinity and beyond!
