Cocky Singapore 15-year-old blogger, top Singapore twitter user

Techxav said:

I was actually quite surprised that my tech blog was selected as one of the finalists in the second Singapore Blog Awards without even doing any promotion on Twitter, Facebook or even my huge network of local friends. Most of my friends said that I will definitely win the SG Blog Awards but I cannot guarantee the success. One of my adult friend even told me that “The Blog Awards need me more than I need them.” Well, this seems quite true but I still want to win to attract more local readers to my blog.

Yea he probably got the goods. But seriously there's no need for him to display such arrogance.

He is not even in the top 3 for the youth category voting.

Hmm c'mon guys, be more encouraging la. His website is definitely very impressive. He may not have the social grace to charm the crowd; oh but he's only 15! Props to him for setting the whole thing up!

I guess correcting him would go a long way rather than lambasting him for being rude and cocky.

Forgive him, he is just a kid..:)

his blog is basically a giant link aggregator. i didn't see ANY original content when I went to look around. So he's good at trawling the web for anything with a "Technology" tag or keyword, congratulations!
