Scheduled For World Domination
Probably owing to my background as a groupware purveyor (I used sell Lotus Notes solutions, and was also a Microsoft Product Manager and evangelized MS Exchange – for which I studied certification for), I am a heavy believer in the Calendar, the central focus of a groupware solution after the Inbox. Company groupware is one…

Summer Brings Forth Dreams of Laptops
My long time client whose roots are deeply nested into the local I.T. Distributorship scene (she used to work in a major Distributor and now runs a Dealership for a well-known gadget brand) floored me recently when she agreed to offset my retainer for a laptop when I broached the idea recently. Naturally this sent…

Nobody wants to read my basketball posts so..
Quick post. Happy to note my article about the Sony DSC-R1 SLR was well received, and by ‘well received’ I mean ‘noted’, ‘discussed’ and ‘critiqued’, which may or may not also mean that I was told I was wrong. Let me put it this way. Imo, if someone takes time to tell you ‘dude, check…

Use.Firefox.Or.Else.
I’m not completely sure of what to make of the Explorer Destroyer movement, apparently a (over?)zealous groups of firefox user’s attempt to get people to switch from IE, making (good?) use as well of Google’s offer of $100.00 for every referral to Firefox. Basically you slap on some code onto your site’s index page, and…

Gadgets Galore
Me and Digital Exchange finally got our collective acts together to have all the gadgets I’m supposed to review over the following weeks delivered in one go. Not an easy task granted time and distance (they’re in Makati and I’m in Antipolo), the reported difficulty in dealing with the stores involved, occasional deadline issues and…
