300 and Awards-Worthy Flicks

Movies

Would you believe that for a movie buff, 300 was the first movie I watched on the big screen for this year?!
300. Outstanding visuals and the opposite for its plot. Yep, that short sentence wraps the whole movie up. But still, I can’t stop myself so here it goes. Visuals were impeccable! Like the [...]

Internet and Squirt

Yahoo! Mail aims for infinity… on it’s mail storage starting May this year. Massive E2E (EMail2Email) file sharing is on its way. Can’t wait to see those geeks trying to check its “unlimited-ness” like what some did on Gmail’s once-1GB storage.

New Snapshot Album: Pre-Graduation Beach Party » from the previous post, here are the pictures. Of all the things, this idiot left the camera so I went back home to get it. The party was great! And it did not end at the beach. I hope there will be a post-graduation party next [...]

Filipino Changemaker: What will make me leave the Philippines… An Open Letter to Every Filipino » I came upon this through an email forwarded to me, dugged up on it and found his blog. Interesting read but even though his magic 7 would happen, he will still stay. Good, we need him here.

Internet

I just saw this last night, Google themes! And they are dynamic; changes with the time, day even with the season. It’s quite big but looks great!

I’ve been using Netvibes for all my subscriptions but I still use my Personalized Google for a quick fix.

Internet and Personal

That is what they are advertising. That in terms of “uptime”, web-hosting-speak for how much time your site will be up and available if you are hosted in such a hosting company. They even threw the word “guarantee” on the end of it.

One More Week

Personal

I did it! I’ll be graduating on April 25. Feels really good to say that here.
Yesterday’s passing of the users’ manual of our thesis was the last of the ever-so demanding computer science thesis. And we even concluded it with a feast, sponsored by us (the graduates) and our thesis coordinator. She promised us way [...]

Nearly There

Personal

We submitted our Thesis CD (software installer, readme notes, manuals, documentations) the other day and only the hardbound documentation left to pass to officially quit going to school (skipping even the graduation practices and such). LOL We’ll go to the book binding shop this morning and they said they could finish it on Tuesday. Deadline [...]
