I ran into an amusing article published in the Inquirer a while ago called “Tech-savvy movers and shakers” written by Gabriel Mercado. It tells us how some entrepreneurs are utilizing Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook for their business operations.
Philippine Web Awards
What’s wrong with the Philippine Web Awards? First of all, I can’t pay for my nominated site. I’m about to throw P2500 at their faces with my shiny gold credit card, but they won’t let me. It’s been going on for 4 days! The sadder part is, the website doesn’t have a contact form, nor… Continue reading Philippine Web Awards

Why Can’t WiFi be Free in Manila?
When I was in Manila in June of this year, I had my Compaq laptop with me thinking I can just chill in cafes in the city and surf the Internet via WiFi. I was dead wrong. It costs P100 at Starbucks for 60 lame minutes! It’s a shame that everything that I wanted to… Continue reading Why Can’t WiFi be Free in Manila?
Sleeping Pills Wake Up Comatose Patients
All I can say is WOW. I know, I know, I’m digressing like I always do but I think this is important enough to talk about. Who would’ve thought that the well-known and often abused sleeping pill Stilnox (Zolpidem) can wake up patients in Persistent Vegetative State (PVS) aka comatose patients? It’s heartening to know… Continue reading Sleeping Pills Wake Up Comatose Patients
What’s in a Name?
Forget the Capulets and Montagues, the Hatfields and the McCoys. It’s all about Diddy versus Diddy. Sean “Diddy” Combs was sued by another Diddy in the UK for “causing confusion” and unfair competition. Music producer Richard “Diddy” Dearlove wants Combs to stop using the “Diddy” moniker as it allegedly caused some Puerto Rican teenagers to… Continue reading What’s in a Name?
TipidPC Interview
I was able to do a quick interview with TipidPC’s Hermann Calero, a member of their Core Team. Although this interview is super-late since my previous article about TipidPC was made about a month and a half ago, I’m still glad that Calero, busy as he is (who isnt’??), took the time to answer my… Continue reading TipidPC Interview
Who is this Guy Kidding?
Just like my post less than two months ago about the whole Paul Bowers fiasco, here comes another similar incident involving Gail Dela Cruz, a Filipino web designer whose web template was stolen by a creep named Al Sembrano. Here’s a summary. Sembrano hires Dela Cruz to design a book cover and website for him… Continue reading Who is this Guy Kidding?
Isulong Seoph Update
It’s September!! In a few weeks, we will know who the winner is of the Isulong Seoph contest! I’m still surprised to see my ex-entry IsulongSeoph.ws somewhere in the third page, haha. I’ve been a bad sponsor though. I haven’t been paying attention to what’s been happening in the contest for months! But it’s only… Continue reading Isulong Seoph Update
What to Do When your PC is Damaged While Having it Repaired
About a year ago I had my PC repaired here in Davao City at Columbia Computers. The only problem it had was a faulty power source. Being the smart computer owner that I am, I took out my hard disk and connected it to my PC at work to check if my files are intact… Continue reading What to Do When your PC is Damaged While Having it Repaired
