I love it that VMWare stock is doing well in the U.S. stock market right now. I've often wished I could play in that market if I had the chance, particularly during Apple new product situations and occasionally, a few web services in the past that I thought would do well (although I'm not gonna [...]
There's a feature on Kikay Exchange about this girl's products which are gaining its fair share of attention. Consequently, people have started leaving comments and asking questions that naturally, only the girl can answer properly, given the fact she makes them. Unfortunately, she doesn't reply to emails promptly, if at all, making the whole exercise [...]
I got called over to my client at Galleria early this morning, twice by staff slightly in hysterics about 'not being able to connect'. When I got there, the issue it turns out, whatever the heck that was, resolved by itself. In other words, I pretty much wasted my day as I am unable to [...]
I have made the ff. banners to be installed on the Exchanges:
I didn't want to write the usual "Best Viewed by using Firefox", because I didn't want there to be any mistake. The sites still work alright on Internet Explorer (well at least I think so), but the term "Best Viewed.." might mean that I [...]
But worry not dear reader. I am in high spirits regardless. Basically because, well, there's no other recourse but to be. I have been spending my time trying to do as much as I can outside of the Internet, and so far it's been ok except for the fact that I cannot further plans revolving [...]
Recollected discussion with 171 PLDT customer support 11am:
callcenter person (after asking my telno, name, and relation to account owner): ah sir, matagal na po ito ano ho? tinawag ninyo noon 17 pa. Alam nyo na po kung ano yung reason ng pagkawala ng connection ninyo?
me: grunt (meaning neither yes or no, just tell me).
callcenter [...]
God that title sounds pathetic. But really, what else could I think of, sitting here at this, imo unfortunately named 'Excel' Internet Cafe at Ever (Gotesco?) mall Ortigas, Jhologs Central. Ok I added that 'Jhologs Central' and that's not really their name, but it might as well be. Here, otherwise normal Filipino men and women [...]
So guess what. Yep, it's PLDT time again. This time, our whole village, since last Friday, has lost both voice and DSL connections. The phone is a complete dead set, with no signal, no hiss, no noise, nothing. You can try calling our landline and it'll ring, but again, we wont hear anything on our [...]
I hereby christen this horrible ordeal we're going through as "The Slow". And oh, for some visuals, here's the only map of the cables I could find across our section of the world, stolen from awsj.com. And since I am a Spanish speaking God, I will translate it for you.
It says "Oh my God, the [...]
Yes I'm still talking about the Taiwan earthquake and resultant Internet mess. And the fact I am still on it means I am starting to get angry. And if you deduce that when I say I am starting to get angry it means I will huff and puff but do nothing but write on my [...]
