Maxis are currently upgrading their data packages for current users. I’m not sure of the various upgrades but both my wife and I have been upgraded to slightly better packages. It’s perfect timing for us, with the recent iOS 5 upgrades our data usage has increased and i found myself reaching or passing the limit with one week to go to my next billing cycle.
Our Upgrades
Account 1
iValue 1 (iPhone) package. It was on a 500MB data for RM50.
Upgraded to 1GB for NO Extra Cost
Account 2
Regular 500MB data package for RM58
Upgraded to 1.5GB for No Extra Cost
Since account 1 got only a 500MB compared to a 1GB upgrade for account 2, i decided to call to check and apparently maxis has drawn up a new data to cost package, this upgrade of 1 GB is given to those who were with paying RM58 for 500MB ONLY.
I’m not complaining, not too sure if it’s the most competitive but i give props to Maxis for this automatic upgrade.
YouTube is testing a fresh new design for their homepage which is not launched to the public yet but i found it rather cool and wanted to get my hands on it. Moritz Tolxdorff, who is on Google+ figured out a way to get the new design by tricking a related cookie. Very cool indeed!
You can get it done on your Chrome Browser ;
1. Open www.youtube.com
2. Press Ctrl + Shift and J in Chrome to open the Developer Tools.
3. In Chrome, click on the “Console” Tab, paste the below code and hit enter.
document.cookie=”VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE=ST1Ti53r4fU”;
Your Done! , Hit F5 to refresh the page and you are in this new design.
Enjoy!
