How Tragic!

Posted in Events, Filipino, blogging on 14/04/2007

I’m at the iBlog 3 Conference now waiting for my turn to talk. How sad, the free WiFi can’t access Friendster! How am I going to add all my new friends?!

I noticed that too. just shows how friendstser can overload the fragile UP server. Yahoo is not working either.Myspace is not blocked.

That is a good candidate for VPN Tunneling.

Or maybe Logmein.com and use another computers’ screen to access friendster.

Whatever, i hate it when they do that.

Yahoo isn’t working? As in the whole Yahoo, or just YM?

I can’t imagine why they would block a whole search engine…

@Noemi

Yeah my connection was quite intermittent as well. I’d get page time outs every now and then. YouTube is also blocked.

@Luis

I saw some attendees who were running YM fine.

@Jayvee

Loved your presentation man! Cool slide transitions as well

I saw you playing NDS lite during the mid-day break. I was shy enough to bring out my own NDS in my backpack. Care for a round of golf? lol. Thanks for the great lecture. You were the funniest speaker in iblog3.

You should hear about our new online “real time” registration. It’ll drive you mad

I enjoyed your mac-powered presentation. Thanks for the lively talk… ginising mo kami. Zimm

hehe, i used to work as a Dilnet SA (a year ago).

Friendster and Youtube, if i remember correctly, can only be accessed during “non-working hours”. Yahoo Messenger can be accessed thru a specific port. Some of my friends use Meebo instead. If the connection is slow, it’s most likely the effect of the enlistment period.

@Tiffany: yeah, and i made a usability study on that “realtime” service. sheesh.

I enjoyed your presentation. Kulit. Hehe. Oh! And I have a baby-project that I wanna do and might need help when I start up. Is it alright if I run it thru you and get your opinion about it? Thanks.
