Sleek. Classy. Beautiful.
These and more best describe one of Samsung Electronics, Co. Ltd.'s Ultra Edition II series, the Ultra Edition 10.9 (SGH - U600).
Reality Bites: Crash and Burn
The local I.T. industry was surprised with the sudden replacement of Antonio Javier as Managing Director of Microsoft Philippines, that is why not much attention was given to the Skype outage. A problem that rendered most Skype users around the world in the dark. Millions of its users were unable to make phone calls or to send instant messages via the popular Internet-based service.

Techie Pen: The Great Pretender: Part 1
Once upon a time I didn’t know what to do with my life. After graduating from college, my days were pretty much spent running errands for the parentals (aka mom & dad), walking aimlessly around the mall with my friend who like me, didn’t have else anything better to, and lounging by the village pool till I sported the tan of the tropics.
Watching IT:
Joey Ayala, one of the country’s most creative artists (Is there any other type of artists?), is never tiring to hear and watch. In fact, aside from his hayahay-filled, inspiring, eye-opening, and sometimes, anger-inducing music, it is his witty and trivia-filled talks between songs that keep most of his audiences coming back for more. The guy certainly has a wacky and wicked, but definitely wholesome, sense of humor, which seamlessly meshes with his music to keep his listeners up and alert until the wee hours of the morning.

TECHIE MOMMY TALKS
Geek is a term usually directed at people with above-average intelligence, who place little or no importance on their appearance, and are usually unattractive or dorky-looking. That was then. Nowadays geeks don’t just stick out like sore thumbs because they behave oddly or are weird looking. Some of them stand out because not only are they smart, they also look as good as any fashionable, cool boy or gal next door. What are geeks anyway?

I can live without lots of high-tech gadgets.
Blog-O-Rama
Today's students probably never had it so good. I imagine that being a student in this day and age would be such a breeze because of our easy access to technology and the all-encompassing power of the Internet. My generation didn't grow up with these one-click wonders; it was just too bad that we missed it by a few years or so.
GameTime
Electronic Arts Inc., announced that Battlefield 2142, Need for Speed Carbon, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars are now available to order for Mac users. These are the first games ever published by EA for Mac OS X, Apple's advanced operating system.
Ole! We can now sing 'wirelessly' in the rain...
With the intensity that Filipinos love karaoke, you might as well think the whole thing was invented in the Philippines (it started in Japan). Karaoke has already become an icon, bridging people across all social levels. We've come to associate it in the same indispensable way that some people do with Frigidaire for refrigerators or Xerox with photocopiers, even though there are other reliable brands lying around.
Internet-based business productivity solutions
The Internet becomes the most popular thing for almost everything nowadays, from source of limitless information to the most popular means of communication. There are countless applications for the internet, massive information download and upload every second along the World Wide Web or the information super highway. The tremendous amount of information passing through internet becomes a challenge for monitoring and management. The most troublesome thing for network manager is confidentiality disclosure and bandwidth abuse. How much confidential information is out flowing without being controlled? How much bandwidth is being wasted on useless activities? How can you prevent unauthorized users of your network? These questions are just some of the problems addressed by the two products we are featuring, the CIPHERIUM (Network Management Solution) and the E-Detective (Internet Audit Solution)
Ho-Ho-Ho!

Digital Citizens: Everything Changes
Accepting changes brought about by the development of information technology is not easy, keeping up with the changes is definitely a challenge. And the one man in the corporate structure who will absorb most of the challenges is the person incharge of the entire corporate I.T. infrastructure - the Chief Information Officers (CIOs).

I remember watching Sesame Street when I was a kid and one of the values that they taught was Sharing. I remember Cookie Monster sharing a piece of cookie with Ernie even if cookies are his favorite. Ain't it cool if kids today still have Sesame Street to help them out?

Watching IT:
Count on evildoers to never run out of ideas on how to take advantage of others for a fast buck. Sad to say, this also happens to be quite true online. Brewing computer viruses and other malware, robbing other people’s identities, posing as love-struck teenagers to advance their sexual predatory urges, you name it, it’s there online.
