Spell Remittance

Naknambaka naman! sabihin ko right now na hindi maganda lalo na sa mga bata na mostly nakatutok sa mga telebisyon. OO, sabihin man natin na dapat ay “Parental Guidance” ang panonood ng TV ng mga bata. ginagawa nga ng magulang ang kanilang tungkulin bilang pag tuturo sa kanilang mga anak pero ginagawa ba ng advertiser ang karapat dapat.

e kung tama sana ang pinagggawa nila, e di kahit papano nakakatulong sila sa bayan. kaso, nagkalat na nga ang mga hindi disiplinado, nagkalat na nga mga taong di nakapag aral… eh isa pa sila sa mga nagkakalat ng maling inpormasyon.

eto naman si Edu ngingisi pa.

Globe Telelecom Broadband

How on earth Globe telecom Tattoo broadband perform?

In my user experience, i find it annoying.
Why? You can’t even open a website. Sometimes yes, sometimes NO. I understand that the latency is to high because it runs on a wireless network.
But when you see a “Request Time Out” when you run a ping, it makes people sick. considering that
today is not cloudy or its not a rainy day.

Yeah, the signal is 94%. What else?

We are paying for the service of Globe in per hour basis, but we are already hooked-up for an hour. Still the page is not yet loaded or it says “network connection error”.

Yan ang simpleng panggagantso.

RE: Free Laptop from Ericsson

recently,i received a lot of email with the subject :RE: Free Laptop from Ericsson.

So who doesn’t want a free notebook anyway?

Before jumping in to your forward button you must learn how to use google.com.

I learned from google thru the site : http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/internet/a/ericsson_hoax.htm that the email was only a HOAX.

hoax is a way to deliberately fooled or deceived the audiance.

Now, why on earth that some “IT professionals” are still forwarding this email? Deym! who the hell can trace all the emails and award a laptop to the successful email forwarder?

WordPress: Display Title only on Category

Just doing some wordpress based website and i faced a problem on the category listing module. My client wants to display the title only on the category.

Upon inspecting the code of the template i downloaded, i tried playing with the archive.php file and found out that if you un-comment the following line.
php the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’);

the following line below will solve the problem:
php //the_content(‘Read the rest of this entry »’);

Happy wordpress!

Open book for TV Networks

Recently, i touched about government must see the TELCO’s book to see if they really “lugi” or “tubong lugaw”. Now, government must make an action also on TV Networks. Pacquiao VS Hatton coverage is a worst coverage. see: http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/nation/view/20090504-202907/Fight-too-short-TV-ads-too-long

Congratulations Pacman!

Congratulations Pacman!

Open book sa mga telco

kung magawa ng gobyerno na mabuksan ang libro ng mga malalaking kumpanya ng langis sa Pilipinas, sana isunod nila ang mga kumpanya ng telekomunikasyon para malaman natin kung tubong lugaw sila.

Maliit na bagay sa tingin natin ang piso nagagastos natin sa kahibangan sa text pero kung iisipin mo milyon – milyon ang kinikita ng mga malalaking telekomunikasyon ng dahil sa piso mo.

Sana naman magawan ng paraan ng gobyerno ito.

Opera mini on Sony Ericson P1i

Just downloaded Opera-mini browser for my my phone but can’t get working. I already tried changing (vice -versa) the settings to HTTP and Socket.

Most techy savor recommend the Opera-mini since it is more faster that any mobile browser. That’s why i need to fix this.
