Joining Malaysia’s Youth Lifestyle Showcase 2008
I am going to Kuala Lumpur later (Thursday morning) then, at Friday, I will be attending Youth ’08 to check out who wins “The Malaysian Dotcom Youth Search Award “.
Frankly speaking, Youth `08 is not well-organized, even before the event started.
First of all, the YouthMalaysia website is a mess. They love flash animation. Flash animations are everywhere on the web page, typical Malaysians. The music player on the front page is meaningless. The website structure is not organized nicely. It is difficult to find the information you want.
The YouthSearch added a big chat box on the top of the page. It has become the heaven of spammers. They should use forum instead of a chat box.
Also, every YouthSearch participants received multiple SMS, calls, and emails to “remind” you to attend the event. Well, I don’t think we have memory lost problem.
Worse, the emails sent by YouthMAlaysia crew didn’t hide the receivers’ email address. In fact, all participants’ email addresses have been exposed.
Anyway, there are many programs for the 3 days event. You can check out the Youth `08 program schedule (changed last minute). Here are the programs that I am interested in:
