Of advertisements and blogs (III)

When something is the most talked about matter in blogosphere, you can’t help but follow some of the links. This is where I chanced upon Putraworks and from there I can’t help but read what has got Xiaxue Xiasuay gotta say about NuffNang.


Screen cap from Xiasuay’s article.

And then my friend Aldragon – who doesn’t have a blog but reads them – showed me this.

What is so funny… is the contradiction. Either Xiasuay was misrepresenting, or Larry – who obviously stands no dissent and contradiction to his own views – was talking through his arse.

But what really took the cake were these in the comments of this post on Putraworks.

Tsk tsk… Ming is still responding on blogs and not his corporate website. How shameful.

And looking at Josh’s comment reminds us of this old Sun Tzu strategem: “知己知彼,百战不贻… 不知彼不知己,每战必败”。Now perhaps that explains why Advertlets always seem to have an advantage… LOL

  1. 知己知彼,百战不贻… 不知彼不知己,每战必败 means:

    know your enemy and know yourself – you win every battle
    know not your enemy and also not yourself – you lose every battle

  2. Since I can’t read chinese, I used google translation to figure out what the Sun Tzu quote is.

    知己知彼,百战不贻… 不知彼不知己,每战必败 = Mutual understanding, Bai Yi-not I do not know … He is not friends, every war defeat

    Hmm… let me meditate upon this profound statement.

  3. HK Tan: Sure… why not?
    If MM Lee can travel to any corner of SG within 20minutes, I don’t see why Nuffnang can’t send out thousands of dollars of cheques each week.

    Beside, the top earner gets thousand plus per week.
