I took another day-off from blogging yesterday due to a series of meetings with some potentials clients in web development. The meetings lasted until 12 midnight. I wasn’t able to blog and open my computer until now that some of my assignments are expiring. This is the downside of blog advertising, folks. lol!
If you want [...]

Many computer owners want to increase their computer’s Random Access Memory (RAM) to improve their PC’s overall performance. This is because RAM is responsible for storing data just like any other storage media like the hard disk. The only difference is that, RAM stores data temporarily and data are accessed at random (but [...]

The Pacquiao-Diaz fight labeled as “Lethal Combination” is over and my earlier predictions about the match between Manny Pacquiao vs. David Diaz were true: Pacquiao won over Diaz via knockout (in the 9th round) and Pacman was really aggressive right from the very beginning of the fight. The win was well-deserved and he’s no [...]

The Pacquiao-Diaz fight result could end up in a knockout. Pacquiao is a knockout artist and so is Diaz. They both have knockout powers in their hands and Manny’s current state on TV seems like he’s ready for the WBC Lightweight championship match titled “Lethal Combination” in Las Vegas, Nevada on Sunday (8am [...]

The Australian Tennis Open champion, Maria Sharapova, was eliminated from the Wimbledon championship tournament last night (Philippine time). I’ve watched Sharapova’s match against Alla Kudryavtseva (rank 154th in the world) very late last night and I was devastated when she lost. Her loss to a fellow Russian tennis player in the second round of [...]

Typhoon Frank is already outside the Philippine territory but its mark will always be embedded in the memories of those who were affected especially those in Jaro, Iloilo. Typhoon Frank really hit the heart of Visayas so hard I can’t even imagine myself being in those people’s shoes while watching them (victims) on TV.

This is my fourth post in this blog for this day alone. I’m making use of time wisely because I’m only renting a PC at an internet cafe (again). I can’t bloghop yet at the moment because of time constraints. I have asked in my other blog before the question “How Many [...]

Wimbledon is the most prestigious tennis championship in the world and for the record, the oldest. Wimbledon has immortalized the names of John McEnroe, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi, Boris Becker, Martina Hingis, the hot and sexy Anna Kournikova (my all-time favorite) and many more. Up and coming superstars include my tournament favorite at [...]

The inaccuracy of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) is truly unbelievable. I was watching the news last night and their alleged satellite video of typhoon Frank shows that Ilocos Norte was flagged as Signal number 2 where in fact there’s no raindrop or morning dew in this province for [...]

My old hard disk problems are here again - my hard drive’s data are lost due to bursts of short power outages here in Ilocos Norte because of weather conditions. Now, it’s become my problem again to recover my hard drive data which will consume so much of my time and energy. Hard [...]

The movie of Sharon Cuneta “Caregiver” perfectly depicts the life and frustrations of Filipino caregivers abroad. Most of our caregivers are nurses or nursing graduates, in case you didn’t know. I haven’t seen Sharon Cuneta’s movie and this is not going to be an article about showbiz or movies. It’s about Pinoys abroad [...]

As part of my 24th(?) birthday celebration, I am giving away prizes to select bloggers (people who greeted me yesterday and a few days before) who have been very good friends in the blogosphere for many months now. There is no catch here. No requirement. No RSS to subscribe to or whatever. Just [...]

Too much alcohol in the body can make your head spin, hence the origin of the word “hangover”. People during the ancient times observed that when they drink too much wine or rum, they hang their heads over their boats, the railings of their homes, veranda or porch.
To reduce dizziness when the body takes [...]

I’m renewing my driver’s license today and you know what, this has a terrible health implication on my part. Not only will I not be able to blog till 5pm today but anticipating the stress I can derive from falling in a long line standing up (of course!) is already killing me. In [...]

A while ago, I posted about the Firefox 3 download in progress and how I intend to test it for others’ benefit. Sad to say, the download speed of the English version is slow and it took me hours to download the file 5 times because the installer is corrupted. The release date [...]

Firefox 3 release date is today (June 17) but up to this hour I am still seeing the release candidate (RC) version of Firefox. I thought the official release is the one going out today ready for download. I have been using Firefox for more than 5 years now and though I love [...]
