I know I know moving hosts is a gigantic source of gray hair for me, but the logic behind my deciding to is essentially explained by this: as compared what I have now, which is this:

Lets Just Make an Ogg 2.0
I think for the most part, the tech issues that interest, or rather more to the point – get a rise out of me – most are open source, privacy, and ‘understanding the ‘net issues. More specifically occasions when open source isn’t achieved, is attacked, misread or misunderstood. This extends to privacy and the use… Continue reading Lets Just Make an Ogg 2.0
The Cheap Seats Is Where It’s At
So as a follow up to my Vertical Horizon post I bring forthwith images to serve as proof that gaddammet we were there!!! (and just barely) Friday 12/7 will be etched in my mind as one of the most eventful days ever. After a harrowing experience with the most assholest person I’ve ever known, I… Continue reading The Cheap Seats Is Where It’s At
Sorry no smart title for this one
At the moment I can’t help but want more than anything else to wring someone’s neck. A situation happened with a client late this morning and it has led an influential person there to come to the conclusion that I am trying to squeeze him for money. It basically involves asking me to do a… Continue reading Sorry no smart title for this one
You’re A God And I Am Not And I Just Thought That You Would Know
Yes those are lyrics, but before all that: “Yes. Thank you very much for the excellent service. Looking forward to more transactions with you.” – Ms. J. M. Rodrigo of ADMU – and that my friends, is a quote (with permission) just received from a buyer from the Kikay Shop, after a routine check if… Continue reading You’re A God And I Am Not And I Just Thought That You Would Know
Fairly eventful day if not marked somewhat by physical inactivity
I wanted to work out this morning but hey, what I like about working out is that its easy to make excuses, right? So my excuse is I slept late and therefore woke up late and hence my life albeit unhealthy is, however, explained properly, for what that’s worth. But first, CONGRATULATIONS MAUI. To anyone… Continue reading Fairly eventful day if not marked somewhat by physical inactivity
OpenSocial and the Freaky Future
Google’s video re Opensocial is a freaking 57 minutes long so I didn’t get to watch all of it (my downloads are hogging the bandwidth), but it’s purpose is fairly clear. The Social networking phenomenon needs a way to hook them all up together and Google is answering the call. The html+javascript implementation is a… Continue reading OpenSocial and the Freaky Future
An Impressive Show Of Farce
But first before I launch into my tirade, imagine how it feels like to be an active Marine in the military these days. First, you’re sent off to Basilan or Jolo to fight equally if not better equipped than you, with hardly the kind of support needed in case you get wounded or shot. Then,… Continue reading An Impressive Show Of Farce
The Perfect Writing Machine
This post is about my eternal search for a laptop as a writing machine, as opposed to a coding machine, gaming machine or whatever – else machine. First, the best so far. To date, nothing I’ve tried, and I’ve tried a lot, beats the experience of the 6 (?) year old PowerBook G4. Inasmuch as… Continue reading The Perfect Writing Machine
Fools Rush In Book Review
I really enjoyed reading Fools Rush In, Nina Munk‘s research on the gargantuan AOL – Time Warner fiasco of the late 90’s and early 2000s. There is no better way, I think for a person to understand the Internet Bubble and dot com disaster of that era than reading a book that puts you right… Continue reading Fools Rush In Book Review
