I’m thinking of arranging a Blog warming party. It’s like a house warming, except it’s not a house. Get the drift?
What would a blog warming party be like?
First off, I should have invitations. I should invite old and new friends. There are some former regulars of Technobiography whom I ...

I’m home alone tonight. The labs op my layp is doing field work at Iloilo. By experience, I know it’s going to be difficult for me to get some sleep. I might as well spend some time catching up with my blogging.
I’m on a writing marathon mood tonight, and ...

We drifted from the city center when we were in Singapore. We wanted to catch the Night Safari which was around 45 minutes away by train. But when we got there, the train staff said that we won’t make it to the night safari on time.

LBC has a service called “LBC Money Remittance”. What caught my attention is the instant remittance via ATM card.

Pwedeng mag-share?
Lucky plaza is the mall where many of our fellow-Filipinos converge on Sundays to meet friends, do some Filipino food shopping, send their remittances to their families sa probinsya. It’s where you’ll feel like you’re just in the Philippines.

Maya and I were walking along Orchard Road last month in Singapore. There was a well dressed street performer and I thought he was playing a Chinese tune, yun pala “Desperado” yung tugtog niya.
He was playing the guitar with one deformed arm, he was blowing on a harmonica, he ...

I have discussed a lot with my brother, Elmer, and we envisioned mobile search services. Two ways we imagined it (I no longer could not distinguish which ideas are mine and which are his, thus I refer to these ideas as ours).

Last month, Maya and I went to Singapore. We had the chance to visit Lucky Plaza, the mall where Filipinos converge during Sundays. We were there on a Monday so we missed the “Divisoria”-esque ambiance.
There was a remittance and courier desk that was adverting Smart Money and G-Cash. Being ...

LBC was one of the first partner merchants of G-Cash. At the time of the launching of G-Cash in Oct 2004 (almost a year ago!), LBC purportedly accepted Cash-In transactions in some of its branches. I personally was never able to transact G-Cash at any LBC branch.

There was a TV show teaser I saw one-and-a-half times (the first time, I saw only half of it), a trailer for an episode of “Dokyu”, a local TV show featuring documentaries by university students. Just one-and-a-half times I saw that trailer but the images and message of that 30 ...
