Top 25 Facebook Games for May 2011 by DAU (daily active user)
 This gives us an idea of which games people tend to visit habitually. Be sure to compare this list to the top 25 monthly active users list for an idea of which games have a higher retention rate (or “sticky factor”) with players.



Top 25 Facebook Games for May 2011 by MAU (monthly active user)

This gives us an idea of how larger a game’s total audience is, although it doesn’t pain a clear picture of how well the game retains or monetizes among its audience. A game’s MAU isn’t as vulnerable to sharp fluctuations as DAU, however, so we can see overall trends in a game’s life cycle that tell us whether it’s thriving or decaying.

Glenmorangie Tasting at The Hill, Bukit Damansara, KL

Nice evening with cool weather, I was at the The Hill restaurant & bistro at Bukit Damansara for Glenmorangie Wisky Tasting  

Glenmorangie Single Malt Scotch Wisky 
The Original, The Lasanta, The Quinta Ruban, The Nectar D’or, Astar, Sonnalta PX, Signet, Finealta, 18 Years Old, 25 Years Old 


Chong Wai Keng, Glenmoramgie Brand Ambassador  

Glenmorangie comes from the Scots Gaelic Gleann mor na sithe which means 'valley of tranquillity', a perfect description of the peaceful setting near Tain.

Region: Highlands
Established: 1843
Water Source: Tarlogie Springs

The Glenmorangie distillery has been producing its famous single malt since 1843. The distillery is at Tain overlooking the Dornoch Firth. The distillery was built using a pair of very high second hand gin stills. The original shape of these high stills still remains today. In fact the refinement and quality of Glenmorangie whisky is partially due to these very high stills which are the highest stills in Scotland.
