I Liked Plurk, Does You?
My corner of the Twitterverse is waging an online revolt against, well, Twitter itself. Twitter has been the most inaccessible, inconsistent, downtrodden Web 2.0 application on the face of the Internet, and yet we put up with it. Why? Because old habits are difficult to break. Yes, if that weirds you out, try my other… Continue reading I Liked Plurk, Does You?
OpenDNS Running Out of Answers
Two days ago when PLDT MyDSL conked out on virtually all of us, I was having my own problems with my Bayantel DSL here in my office. I couldn’t access most sites I go to such as Google and Twitter. I thought maybe OpenDNS can solve that problem. True enough, it did! Yesterday though, while… Continue reading OpenDNS Running Out of Answers
Yahoo Philippines Office @ The Fort
My sources say Yahoo Philippines is ‘quietly’ setting up its local office at the Net One Center Net Cube Center building at the Fort in Taguig City. This confirms rumors that their office will be completed before the year ends. Jojo Anonuevo, Yahoo’s senior director for business development, is also said to be in the… Continue reading Yahoo Philippines Office @ The Fort
Logitech Cordless Laser Mouse
It’s the third time I forgot to bring my mouse over here at the office. I’m not the touchpad type of user so I usually don’t get any work done without a real mouse. Instead of stocking up on Gingko Biloba to increase circulation to my brain (thus improve memory, thus won’t forget the mouse),… Continue reading Logitech Cordless Laser Mouse
The Future of Flight by Yves Rossy
Could this be the future of air travel? Yves Rossy definitely thinks so. Rossy, a former fighter pilot, took five years to perfect his flying contraption. All his hard work pays off during his maiden flight on May 15, 2008. He zooms and spins in the sky and over the Swiss-effin-alps like there’s no tomorrow.… Continue reading The Future of Flight by Yves Rossy

Cool App for your Blogs: Apture
One of the downsides of blogging is not knowing whether or not your readers are “getting it”. Sure, you know what Gas tungsten arc welding is, but for us mere mortals, that sounds like a bad lab experiment back in college that we’d rather forget about. If you’re familiar with Snap Shots (see sample), Apture… Continue reading Cool App for your Blogs: Apture

The HP DV3000 that Blogging Didn’t Buy
After realizing that my 2-year-old Compaq laptop (aptly baptized as Maximus) wasn’t serving my needs anymore (despite my fruitless attempts at ‘pimping’ it), I decided to hunt for a new one while I as on a 10-day tour of Manila. In particular, I was looking for a lightweight yet powerful PC with quick processing speed,… Continue reading The HP DV3000 that Blogging Didn’t Buy
