Started to get into Sudoku back in 2008, when I was working in a multinational company of high expectations of the employees.. With high expectations, they are looking for people with challenge-looking mindset, and yeap, Sudoku was a joy for those type of people. I must say most of my co-workers are intelligent guys, (well, i’m not so much at their level), and besides being a challenge to them, another challenge was to have a winner of the fastest solving sudoku of the day employee, but it was just among those in my department. It’s just less than 10ppl back then. It was rather fun !! Me, I like it, I like the challenge, but i’m not at their level just yet.
Sudoku, a puzzle, which involves arranging logic numbers from 1 to 9 in a designed blocks according to its rules, was invented back in 1979 by an American architect, Howard Garns, was published under the name ‘Number Place’. It was then a Japanese puzzle company Nikoli made the game popular with the name Sudoku, which means single number. Learn basics on how to play Sudoku here.
I left Sudoku once I resigned. My mind stumbled across Sudoku when I felt bored of playing Solitaire again and again. Not to say that I’m addicted that I go into Solitaire 24 hours a day or whenever I found some free time, it’d just be during times when my boredom swept over while I really can’t do anything else, example; while waiting for my turn to go and see doctor. Hehe, yea, at some other times not so free sometimes.. However, for me to be able to play an offline game of Sudoku, is something I need to look into, coz just now I played a bit of online Sudoku.
Hmm.. but of coz, I need to follow guidelines of my current ‘boss’, that if I’m able to go online, it’d be better for me to do something beneficial, like blogging in which can generate some $$ 
In addition, there is also Sudoku for kids, and hey, there will be an event of ‘Great Sudoku Challenge’ for kids age 7-15 yrs old from 10-12 April, 2009. The event to be held at PWTC is organised by Expomal International Sdn. Bhd., for the Smart Kids 2009 Education Fair. For more information, you can find more information here. Hmm.. only got to know about this, I’m thinking of getting my son into this at an early age, hehe of course when he’s able to comprehend la.
