I don’t know why I haven’t been using the internet to solve my household problems. I am always online! Rats, bed bugs and ants. These are just some of the problems I have at home. I have been hiring someone to clean the whole house every two weeks but these household pests just won’t go [...]

Truth of the matter is, I don’t know what to do with the spam comments anymore! They just keep on coming back! I have Akismet installed. I am using the Blacklist in the Discussion settings of my admin page. I have even put there the IP addresses of spammers that Akismet caught. Still, they keep [...]

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Pac-man, Google turned their logo into the original Pac-man game! You can play the game just by going to Google.com and clicking on the Insert Coin button. If you haven’t seen it yet, go to Google.com now and relieve those days when all we have is a family [...]

My internet service provider was down the whole day last May 13. Since my work is done online, I couldn’t afford a very long down time. Instead of going to an internet café, I thought of just buying a plug-it, Globe Tattoo Prepaid Broadband. I read about this SUPERSURF50 promo they have. For 50 pesos, [...]

I really think it is highly inappropriate, those 7-year-old girls dancing provocatively to the tune of Beyonce’s Single Ladies. What is more disturbing than the dance routine is the fact that the parents of the kids think there’s nothing wrong to what the kids did. Sexualizing the kids when their parents know there are so [...]

Beware of free WordPress themes! Not all can be beneficial to your site. Most of these free themes can even be harmful to the site’s rank! I don’t know if more people will patronize this site offering free WordPress themes. I used to be one of their many followers. I even subscribed to the designer’s [...]

What happens to a site you own if you suddenly pass away? What if you are the only one who can access it and no one knows any of your passwords? It just occurred to me that your site, no matter how well-maintained it is or how well-developed, will go to waste once you pass [...]

I am so very glad that we can now report spammers in Twitter. There are a lot of them there! Those whose only tweet you can’t make sense of, or those women who are clearly out there to lure you into p0rn sites. I was one of those campaigning to have a mark as spam [...]

You might want to drop by my other blog, Sasha-says.com, to check out my latest rant about crappy DSL companies here in Manila. You might be experiencing the same thing and we can compare notes.

The WordPress exploit that happened to several of my blogs was really a big hassle to me. What would have been a light weekend in terms of work load became a race to the latest WordPress update for me. I was emailed by a Bluehost tech support telling me that my account was hacked. I [...]

I have downloaded Google Chrome and is currently using it for my Entrecard dropping. I love how sleek it looks and it’s fast loading. I have read mixed reactions of bloggers regarding this newest browser to hit the net. And I wonder, are you also using Google Chrome and what do you think of it?

Just wondering… do you actually click on the ads and/or the affiliate buttons that you see in different blogs and web sites? Personally, when it catches my interest, I do click on the ads or affiliate button. I discovered a couple of useful web sites because of this. What about you?

Last night before I logged off, I downloaded Firefox version 3 and installed it. Unlike most people, I don’t go for the latest version of whatever program I am using. But then, I’ve been reading raves for this new Firefox version plus the Entrecard toolbar works only for this one. I figured, why not give [...]

So the mighty Google made a PageRank (PR) update in the past few days… How did your blog fare?

I have been reading and hearing about the problems Smartbro subscribers are encountering right now. I know for a fact how unreliable that internet service provider (ISP) is. Your DSL connection is good only in places where Smart signal is the strongest. Plus, I have friends who were subscribers and they have complained time and [...]
