So I bought into the hype (what else was I supposed to do?) and spent half an hour watching the clock tick down at facebook.com/username.. confident that I would be able to claim my spot as the number 1 sherwin on the internets. After all, I already own the much coveted twitter.com/sherwin. I sat and waited, following the events as the unfolded on the Mashable chat.. half expecting Facebook to implode under the load of a billion page refreshes. Fortunately it didn't.. and from the goings on at the countdown I found that my countdown timer was running slightly slower. This is understandable, but I suspect that this was what sealed my fate as not being able to claim the spot of #1 Sherwin on the internet. Because of this 1 second delay, another Sherwin swooped in and claimed the username I had been eagerly waiting for since the announcement was made more than a week ago. So now I'm facebook.com/sherwinhuang or facebook.com/sherwin.huang or facebook.com/sherwin-huang take your pick. Not too bad I guess! At least I'm not sherwinhuang28912317
YES! I've managed to get sherwin.posterous.com
So today I went about upgrading my iPhone to firmware 3.0, but in doing so I got the shock of my life. The first few times I kept getting an error (13) message and my phone was temporarily bricked. This can't be happening I thought, so I went to Google for help, but no info was to be found. So after some mucking around, I realised what the problem was: My USB ports were kind of buggy. I therefore decided to remove the portable hard drive I had attached to my free port, try the upgrade again. This time it worked! Saved from the pain of a bricked phone. Thanks Sam for the firmware. Great stuff. So far so good, but I can't wait till the final version comes out! On another note, I feel like buying a new computer. What a piece of crap.
