Hello everyone, I just wanted to announce that I no longer work on the project Next2Friends as of May 2008. As a matter of fact, I’m preparing a legal action against Anthony Nystrom of Genetibase, one of the founders of Next2Friends. Some of you may already know, I started working for Anthony on the project Next2Friends in September 2007. As of today, I have not received the full payment as promised. In the past months (almost a year), Anthony had made many promises to make the full payment but consistently failed to fullfil his promises. Therefore, I’m preparing to take legal actions to collect the outstanding payment.

Finally, the Facebook app that I designed for WIRED Science is officially launched. The app is called "WIRED SCIENCE: What Element Are You?" It is basically a fun app that lets you take a short quiz to find out what element you are from the periodic table. Then you can combine your element with your friends and it will tell you the relationship between the two of you. If you are interested in adding me to your network, here is my Facebook profile.

Meanwhile, don’t forget to check out my other sites Web Designer Wall and Best Web Gallery.
