Tweetdeck - The RT and Tutorial (for Twitter Noob)



Good day, finally all the hectic days are over so got some times to write something on this webby blog (should I call it webby - bersawang??). Let's just go straight forward, this post entitled Tweetdeck, which I'm gonna introduce you to this apps. Don't mistaken me for being lag of current software what so ever, I'm an avid twitter user. So the things started when my uncle @dinjerung just started blogging and involving in twitter, and he's kinda confuse with the twitter function itself and find it rather boring compare to facebook (yep, the vast developed social network globally) and asking me the function of RT, hahahahaaa. Apologized for my big LOL-ing here, I just can't help my self stop mengilai-ngilai when you guys keep complaining on 'RT' on my twitter threads. You uncle (and his kawan kamceng, which you both are the reason why I'm writing today), make sure you study this simple Twitter SOP (Standard Operation Procedure).

Lesson 1: What is Twitter?

Twitter is just another tool of online social media which enables you to update your current status as known as microblogging, composing texts up to 140 characters. It works totally different than Facebook, Twitter used term followers and following, the terms that indicate number of your friends/celebrities/clubs. Followers refer to the number of people that following you (petanda lah ni glamer tak glamer) while following refers to the number of people you follow. To familiarized with Twitter, it also enabled you to tweet your photos and even videos. Another features such as @reply, DM (direct message - more of PM which will not appear in your public timeline), hashtag (#), lists and the one that just crank up your head to deal with, retweet or RT.
Instead monitoring your twitter from the website, you got few alternatives in which you don't have to get on your browser such as 3rd party applications or directly tweeting from your phone. As for me, I opt for 3rd party applications. Damn easy man!!!

Lesson 2: You are everything in a day that I could stick for hours, Tweetdeck!


Who is Tweetdeck? Who? Who? He (refer Tweetdeck to 'he' cause he's the one I've been dating lately, staring at him for hours) is a Twitter client, an Adobe Air desktop application which work the same way as Twitter that enable you to send or receive tweet and view profiles.

That is my desktop Tweetdeck

And this one is Chromedeck, a Tweetdeck made for Chrome, handsome, ain't he?


Currently, Tweetdeck is made for desktop applications, Chrome, the iLegacy (iPad, iPhone & iPod) and Android platform. The best thing that I love about Tweetdeck is I could split the people I follow into few groups, so make it easier for me to trace the updated activities of them rather than to trace them down on timeline, the tweets possibly can threaded like hundreds in few minutes. See my Chromedeck, I split them into twitterians, tech and news, in fact you can add the column into many columns you wish.


Like you want to have a special column for your girlfriend alone, oh sure u can!! And voila! It's all your girlfriend's tweets without messing with other tweets. A column for Fasha Sandha may be, a column for Lisa Surihani....a column for, yeah..yeah..I know that must be something twirling in your head right now. This is the way you manage your tweets without missing one of them in the timeline. Twitter made to keep ya updated!

Lesson 3: RT, you'll be damned!

Retweet is another feature in Twitter which allows you to to repost a message from another Twitter user, and share it with one's own followers. Remember that I told you there are 2 style of RT the new style and old style. New style RT automatically repost the tweet without edit and old style allows you to write some texts before repost. New style perhaps the one you use in Twitter website. Tweetdeck enables you to do both new and old style. See how it works (from my Chromedeck).


See the circled tweet and the 'Retweet' button below it. Click on it.


The tweet will appear on the compose space at the top of it which provides you the option 'Click to edit' by means the old style retweet or simply hit 'send' for the new style retweet.

This is how your tweet will appear after you click to edit and tadaaa, see your adorable RT letter there and compose your text there. Piece of cake laahh!


and hit send!


Instead of Tweetdeck, there are still many 3rd party applications for Twitter such as Destroy Twitter. But, I find Tweetdeck rather easy to use, simple user interface (Suhaila Sulong pon cakap #tweetdeck best!). New feature released is Deck.ly when just you have a lot to say on Twitter that enables you to tweet more than 140 characters. So you both especially, go get Tweetdeck and experience it on your own. It is more than just a Twitter. Tutorial ends.

Malu bertanya celik jalan.


Aku yakin semua orang pernah dengar peribahasa/ungkapan 'Malu bertanya sesat jalan'. Peribahasa ni membawa maksud kau akan sesat/hilang punca kalau kau malu bertanya. Yelah, ungkapan tu sangat direct, takde bunga-bunga macam 'Bagai isi dengan kuku', 'Bagai aur dengan tebing' dan macam-macam lagi lah yang berbunga-bunga. Bahasa Melayu kan penuh santunnya, berlapik-lapik, berbunga-bunga. Tapi, aku rasa lah kan, malu bertanya sesat jalan ni dah tak berapa relevan kot untuk digunapakai sekarang. Aku ingat kita kena tukar baru, 'Malu bertanya celik jalan'. Aku melihat, 'malu bertanya sesat jalan' ni menjadikan kau lagi belajar dari kau bertanya dan kau tak sesat. You'll learn from failure you know. Learn from rough. Malu bertanya akan menjadikan kau main redah je nak buat apa-apa, kalau betul, untung lah kau. Kalau kau tersalah redah, hahaha PADAN MUKA! Tapi dari padan muka ni lah, kau akan belajar dari kesilapan kau yang padan muka, sah-sah kau ingat sampai tua, pengalaman wooohh. Ada jugak cerita kalau orang tanya nanti. Mistakes tu lah bagi life ada thrill. Baru bes, because you got something to reminisce on your long life. Kalau takut sesat baiklah bertanya kan? Baguslah hidup di landasan benar sepanjang masa. Senang je sepanjang jalan. Tak sesat punya, unless yang kau tanya tu sesat jugak. kehkehkeh. So people, don't afraid to commit a single mistake in your life. Mistake should be something you learn from it, but not to live with it.

HARI JUMAAT SUNGGUH MENJENGKELKAN.


Jumaat penghulu segala hari. Jumaat jugak ada timing yang ideal untuk terhegeh-hegeh lenggang mak limah tanpa sesak-sesak keluar cari barang. Parking pon senang nak cari time tu. Waktu mana? Waktu bile? Waktuuuuuu...


Lelaki-lelaki kuar mengerjakan solat Jumaat.

Sampai tertido dengar khutbah. Normal. Tak pegi semayang Jumaat pon biasa jugak.

Akan tetapi ternyata menjengkelkan giler9999 *betul2 menjengkelkan lah ni*, dah tengahari lebih kurang 1245tghri, hari Jumaat, ade lagi lelaki-lelaki ni terhegeh-hegeh duk cari parking jugak, pastu melilau dalam kedai, teman bini ke, teman makwe ke, shopping sekali. Oh, sekejap je kot temannye. Pusing lagi sekali, dah azan ni, eh dalam kedai lagi pilih-pilih barang. Kau period eh sekali ngan makwe/bini? Tak..tak..musafir kot. Musafir takpe tak semayang Jumaat.

My point is, aku sangat menyampah nak mati dengan lelaki-lelaki time semayang Jumaat tu duk menyemak jugak dekat kedai-kedai ke, atas jalan ke. Dah jadi kewajipan, pergilah kerjakan dulu (kalau takde keuzuran). 2 rakaat je.


*Kalau yang 2 rakaat solat berjemaah kat masjid, seminggu sekali, paling-paling malas lah tu, itu pon tak boleh buat, buat laki pon aku tak hingin!

Bolder and sleeker


Growing up with Honda since young somehow inculcate me to opt for Honda too soon. Ayah loves Honda so much. Honda Civic is his first Honda bought and several years later, he switched to Accord. Been riding in Honda for about 20 years, and how I wish that I would buy one, a new model, and let ayah feels the unexceptional transformation that Honda created since the first Civic he drove in until the latest one. Coming up, Civic re-design with sophisticated concept as well as bolder and sleeker appearance. It comes with conventional sedan and coupe models along with hybrid and natural-gas variants. So, which is yours?

To Tunku Maheran, which lure you most? kehkeh



#Typically, a groom will present a car to his bride as a gift, but not on me. I'm gonna turn it the other way, a bride will present a car to her groom. So, the groom would appear lagi materialistik than the bride! AHAHAHAHAHAHAA.
