Doom – the best video game to movie adaptation ever?

Which brings me to this point, where I will sadly bewail the other end of the spectrum, the worst video game to movie adaptaion imho, Tomb Raider, which for the most part I wouldn't mind at all, I mean a sucky movie's just a sucky movie, except for one thing - you will probably not find a bigger fan of Lara Croft than me.

It was a pioneering first person game to begin with, but the characters absolute lack of fear and 'astig' factor just blew me away. As far as the first version Lara is concerned, she had no room for fancy gadgets, relying on deft skill, smarts, and dexterity. As long Lara had her pistols, all was good. Continue reading

What’s to gain from becoming #1?

Maybe it's just me. I still think of blogs as nothing more than a blank piece of paper on which one would write his thoughts and to hell what anyone else would think or do about it. At this very moment, that is in fact what I'm doing. I've an opinion, I use Microsoft's Notepad to write it down, after which I'll log onto my wordpress blog, paste it on there, edit a related pic or two on Photoshop to enhance it, publish, sit back and appreciate what I have done, then go back to work. Blogging is just writing. Plain and simple. Continue reading

Michael Dell wants YOU

And it leads me to wanna say to all of the other IT companies out there hiring Pinoy Callcenter folks, HP, Yahoo, etc. - is doing something like that so hard? I mean show a little love why dontcha?! Take a cue from Mr. Dell and make a quick video, a nice personalized invite, get a page ad done especially for Pinoys instead of the generic one you've prepared for the "Asian" market, and you just actually might get some quality call center people who'd really wanna work for you, instead of the rigodon that I hear's been going on in the industry, where people just apply and move on within a few months to the next big hirer.

8 gadgets in 8 weeks

Does that mean to say that Bluetooth is completely useless? Of course not. However, I’ve personally not seen an application in popular use that makes use of its capabilities as intended to be, but more to the point, I’ve yet to hear a local conversation amongst friends and other ordinary users that has to do with Bluetooth without involving the nocturnal talents of some starlet, model or hapless student (Which may also serve as an indication of the type of people I hang out with).
