Xperience: 2View DG Cams by Samsung

Wasssuppp Shaz: Went for BUFFET dinner last nite at KLCC Convention Center - the Choc MOUSSE was REALLY SINFUL!!! OMG...

Samsung - One of the world's leading compact camera producers are back with many new innovations... not limited with a camera that has 2 View but also a digital cam that has WiFi capabilities and bluetooth! - WHoa.. that's NEW.

Anyways, was invited by Samsung to organise a small party of 20 to their Samsung 2View Press Conference / Launch of the new camera at The Gardens - MidValley. Therefore i invited 20 of my blogger friends here today for this event.

About the camera: It's "DIFFFERENT" with an added "F"! What do i mean by that? Well usually digital cameras... well compact ones or even pro-sumers only has 1 LCD screen at the back of the camera for you to look at, to snap a pic, and even to review or edit. But Samsung 2View ST500 / SSST550 has 2 LCD Screens on it! - One big one at the back, and one small one in the front.

What does this do? Well the USP (unique selling point) / features of this camera is that ITS SPECIALLY MADE for those who loves to "CAM WHORE". As you may know - you yourself or your FRIENDS simply love taking pics of themselves... but somehow, sometimes or most of the times for others - they end up not being in the frame of the picture that was snapped and end up taking too much time to snap up to 3-5 pics to juz get the accurate pic that they wanted! Well Samsung 2View, solves this problem by allowing you to see yourself and adjust yourself into the framed area in the camera prior to taking the picture. Awesome innit!!!

Anyways - here's pics for you to enjoy the press launch of the "Samsung 2View Launch recently...

Dinner with Samsung

Wasssuppp Shaz: Lost my "Super Tag" and found it back...in my other car! Need to re-send car for alignment and keep track of my diet!

No... I didn't have Dinner with the founder of "SAMSUNG" - The Brand / Company... but the Samsung Electronics CEO and top level managements from the Malaysian "epic" were there. Dinner in appreciation of the members of the Media is a little something that companies like Samsung would do to give back to the people who have been supporting them throughout the years.

It's not easy to get good publicity in newspapers, magazines, webspace, TV and radio. Public Relations or better known as "PR" is used in many companies to acquire reviews for products that was released for such companies like Samsung.

The members of the media in the other hand are HAPPY that there are companies like Samsung that comes up with new products for them to try and have a little something to write about or even criticise! - You see... in this world, its like a "CIRCLE". I need you, you need me... and it all comes back in a circle.

In some cases, members of the media are "KEY" contacts between the company and the public. Yes, although they are able to spend hundreds and thousands to publicise their products - in the eyes of the public they see "adverts" as non reputable and reviews with criticism are the way to go. Now you may ask... what's the role of "PR" agencies then... well!!! They are hired because they have close contacts with the members of the media. It would cost a tremendous amount of money for a company to just setup a PR division knowing that its products only comes out once in a while... therefore PR agencies works either by project basis or contract so the company only has to pay for what has been "used" - as in the number of hours worked on a particular project.

And doing such PR agencies not only serves one client - they have many!!! Therefore they can keep in touch with the same journalist / writer / editor for more upcoming events and provide a secure working relationship. So as you can see... its quite a budget efficient method and also a great way to make money! HAhah.. so now do you want to setup your own PR agency? There are many out there... you don't have to start big - start small at first... or just cling on a particular agency for a while and move on.

Therefore, here's the Media Appreciation dinner at a lovely Hotel "Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur" to celebrate the fasting month of Ramadhan.

Tip of the day: If you are in the PR line in Uni, get yourself an internship at a big / reputable "agency" that's known worldwide and when the time comes you may move to smaller agencies or even set up your own one. Companies nowadays - from what i've seen... they hired a particular agency to help up with the media invitation and suddenly they absorb the person into their own company as the cost is lesser but you would have better bargaining power.

Meeting up with the oldies...

Xfresh.com - Malaysia's Premier Teen Community, once upon a time ago... I joined the workforce for this PROJECT in 2001 when it was hitz.fm Teen Community. I was part of the Onlinet Marketing Team for the website - yes...we liase with the radio station and work hand in hand. I had air time that i can make use of and a whole lot more.

Yep... if by then you listen to hitz.fm and you were in high school in 2001 or 2002... you may have heard of this promo where students from schools can logon to the hitz website and vote for your own school and every thursday the cruisers will go to the school with the highest votes. Yep... U KNOW IT! Hehehe... and so we came! Well that was my idea...

And so Xfresh.com was formed in 2001 with additions of a few more DOTS - Dynamic Outrageous Teens that was so into MAKING A DIFFERENCE.

And thus we congregated here today to meet up with old friends, those we made... helluva way back in the years when we were still young! Now we are old farts! LOL...

Amongst those who were present today who are CREW members are Albert, Elena, Azira, Syefri William and REX. But the original crew were Albert, Elena and Azira and yours truly.

Let's enjoy the piccassss..
