    So the secret is out: It is apparent that nagging moms do need to graduate from some sort of training to express themselves, and this medium is called “Improvised Speed Talking.” The geek in me shall try running the video side by side a voice to text translation app. But I’m already postulating it won’t…

  • Supergirl of My Dreams by Thomas Tan

    And here’s a short black and white silent film directed by Thomas Tan, whom I’ve known since we were kids in PAREF Southridge.

  • Toasting to the New Year

    To 2008 … for experiments that were fun while they lasted. For renewed friendships, and friendships that were transformed beyond the workplace. For loyal friends and conflicts resolved.

  • The Spin: Wendy’s Baconator in 3 Philippine Magazines

    This isn’t a blog about food, so when I do talk about food I approach it from a different angle. Here are some samplings of how Wendy’s latest offering – the Baconator appeals to different niches. The photos below are magazine ad pegs for three different publications: T3, Men’s Health and FHM. Notice how the…

  • Geekiest Christmas gift for me! (thus far!!)

    To my dearest friend Knox. 9 years of friendship proves how much of my geeky side rubbed off on you. Thank you for this NES Controller belt 😀 I will wear it with pride, just like Captain N.

    EDIT I:I recently published a review of the new dual faced ACER DX650 — yes Glofiish is now owned by ACER! If you bought a Glofiish device and wonder about tech support, I am told it will be honored with ACER. EDIT II: Made a correction with the DX900 – it has a 3MP camera,…

  • Loadmomma is the “second half” of Red Mobile: Free affiliate load sending!

    The summary: Loadmomma from Red Mobile combines social media and viral marketing with a prepaid load distribution. The cat is finally out of the bag.
