The Singapore Philatelic Museum building was originally commissioned in 1906 as part of the Anglo-Chinese School. In the 1970s, the building became the Methodist Book Room until 19th August 1995, when the Telecommunication Authority of Singapore converted it into the present day museum. On the 1st April 2000, the museum was transferred to the National Heritage Board as a fully-owned subsidiary.

I recently dropped by the National Museum of Singapore and shot a couple of VRs. Here are some VRs of the inside. Special thanks to Nuriana Yahya (Senior Marketing & Communications Officer) for making this feature possible.

Tony Koe suggested I go check out Singapore’s tallest public housing project to date, the Pinnacle@Duxton so I dropped by this morning to snap a quick VR of the building. The winds up on the 50th storey are quite strong! Visit the link to check out the VRs.

Watch out for clickable arrows within the VR:

Someone emailed me a simple question, ‘What “toys” you got?’.

I think this photo pretty much sums up the reply

I’ve seen and played around enough with the new Windows 7 to think that it is a good upgrade. Yes, I’m a PC user. I gave up on Mac because I realized there were more software and hardware options available on the PC. Not to mention a tons of games out there.

I got a new hard disk and installed Windows 7 (64bit Version) today. Installation was rather quick. I didn’t watch the process complete so I would have to say it takes the same amount of time you would take to leave the office, grab a very quick lunch and hurry back. I just started all the initial installation steps and left it to auto-pilot.

One of the first things I noticed was that boot time improved dramatically. Also, everything else of mine worked perfectly, even the older stuff:

• Canon Pixma 9000 printer (USB)
• LG External Blu-Ray Drive (USB)
• Spyder Elite (USB)
• Western Digital 2TB drive (eSATA)
• Logitech MX Revolution (USB)
• iTunes (for my iPhone)
• Networked Printers (LAN)
• etc… etc… etc…

64bit drivers are all easily available and already downloaded off the various websites the day before. Perhaps it was psychological, but everyday software like Microsoft Office somehow seemed a whole lot snappier. I haven’t tried out my Adobe CS4 Master Collection Suite yet as I had to de-activate and uninstall that from my previous harddisk first.

My next step is to increase my RAM from the current 4 Gb to (hopefully) 16 Gb as the new 64bit OS supports way more RAM than before.

Special thanks to the companies, organizations, fans and friends who have sponsored, helped and supported this project. Have a wonderful and blessed 2010.

I’m back from Qatar, Jordan and Israel. Created a number of VRs and those can be found here: http://www.asianvr.com/blog/
