Adrian Video Image has posted a new item, ' Nyan Cat: Lost in Space | iPhone Game ' I first came to know about Nyan Cat exactly one month ago when ReelSEO reported the top ten most watched YouTube videos of the year. http://www.reelseo.com/youtube-most-watched-videos-of-the-year/ It is a 4-minute animated low resolution graphic cat running non-stop with a catchy never-ending music. Then I found out that my 13 year-old kid actually knew out its existence and told me there was even a 10-HOUR version. At the time of writing this post, there were over 60 million views on the 4-minute version and over 10 million views on the 10-hour version. Today I stumbled upon the “Nyan Cat: Lost in Space” game in the iPhone app store. Curiously, I downloaded it. The free game is a bit old fashioned… Like playing Super Mario… Just running in one direction… Grabbing points and avoiding obstacles.

Adrian Video Image has posted a new item, ' Thai Seafood Fried Vermicelli at Diandin Leluk Thai Restaurant - Singapore ' It is Thai dinner this Friday. Before I proceed with the food review, let me highly recommend Diandin Leluk Thai restaurant, Singapore (or is it Por Jai Authentic Thai Restaurant at Serangoon Gardens, I see two different names on the order form and the receipt). Value for money. Cozy ambiance. Solid dark wood tables and seats. Ordered Thai seafood fried vermicelli and olive rice. Again value for money. Priced like a shopping mall food court. First impression : The bright red chili looks tempting on the vermicelli. The olives looked dull on the fried rice. Surprise factor : Don’t judge the book by its cover. The vermicelli tasted better than most Thai restaurants I have tried. The olive rice is far better. Olive rice adventure : You have to eat the rice in spoonfuls with olives to get the full flavor. Even better, eat them together with cashew nuts and...

Adrian Video Image has posted a new item, ' Game of Life 50th Anniversary Edition Review ' What would you do when you are in the middle of your work at home and your kids request you to join them in their game? I would drop everything and play! After all, I am at home and it’s a Sunday! This time my kids opened a board game called the “Game of Life 50″, which had been gathering dust since their uncle gave it to them a year ago. So… I was assigned to be the banker, taking care of money… and I have no idea how the game works! It looks very much like Monopoly … You move your token around the board… Make some money then lose some. The difference between the Game of Life and Monopoly is that in Game of Life, like the name says, is not just about money, but also about getting married, having kids otherwise adopt twins, pay their school fees and more. Everyone’s token is a colored six-seater SUV where you start off with one peg sitting ...
