What Have You

Upgrading to the latest release of WordPress (this time version 2.3.2) can sometimes be heartbreaking. A lot of sad things can happen especially during the upgrade process where the transfer of updated files could fail. WordPress does not provide an automated process for this, but a good plugin can do the trick. [...]

After posting an article displaying my intent to build a group of Ilocano bloggers, I have received comments and shouts in my shout box showing support to this goal. Perhaps the biggest challenge is to convince locals to join the blog bandwagon. Personally, I know of a lot of people in my home province [...]

Whooaah! I’m back in Ilocos Norte after staying for nearly 3 days in Baguio City. I went there to meet a fellow blogger named RJ – a very beautiful, intelligent and very sexy female blogger from the said city. Our topics ranged from personal to professional aspects of our lives and I had this [...]

Yesterday, my friend in Laoag City texted me that this blog already has a Page Rank. “So what?” I said, since I was offline and giving a lecture to Nurses at that time.
Upon arriving home, I turned on the PC to check my emails at first. Another text message was again sent to [...]

The Philippine government under Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo relives the issue regarding the national identification system which was first proposed during the administration of former Pres. Fidel V. Ramos. During the former president’s time, the proposal was trashed by the Philippine Congress and Senate due to unconstitutionality. This time again, the present government pushes [...]

For two weeks now, I have observed that my Friendster account (the one that I primarily use to communicate with former students, buddies and family members) has been viewed by unknown individuals from unknown locations. Their profiles, however, are very dubious since photos of women wearing skimpy shorts, underwear and sometimes in the nude [...]

Today (Monday, January 07, 2008) marks the official return of students to their classes here in the Philippines after a long holiday hiatus.
Parents once again are faced with the challenges of sustaining their children’s education starting from daily allowance. It is this period that is most difficult for parents since the holiday season is [...]

Just this morning I checked on the website of Advertlets and everything seemed to be back to normal. Bloggers serving Advertlets ads can now put back the ad code to their website without a hitch. I certainly hope the renewal of their domain will be earlier next time so that publishers of their [...]

When we are down with stimulation or inspiration to write, we somehow strive to boost it by watching TV, being with loved ones, friends, environment, pets, hobbies, etc., etc., etc.
Some great writers in the past get stimulation from unorthodox measures. Edgar Allan Poe can’t write without getting drunk. Nostradamus can’t get his [...]

I’ve just opened my computer and logged on to this blog only to find out that before the homepage is fully loaded, the site is redirected to the following address:
http://www.adbaaz.com/?dn=www.advertlets.com&flrdr=yes&nxte=js&prvtof= 8b2VkUqfXDWL2gdOuQNvcTxD6a41uKr4A6r07Xf4Yqk%3D
Opera and Firefox considered this redirect as malicious and fraudulent. The effect of this is devastating to the blog owner/author since visitors will assume [...]

Friends online frequently ask how old I am. This is because of my wish list stating that I want to have more time with my grandchildren. Well, I’m 33 years old and my grandkids are not my children’s children but my nieces whose ages range from 20-31 years old. Close age gap, huh!
