Verzio debuts in the Philippines: Makers of the dual SIM phone and other neat gadgets
I was at Fiamma the other night for the unveiling of a new technology company here in the Philippines. The invite was rather vague, announcing a new range of digital lifestyle products. I’ve never heard of Verzio before – and who would have – they’re rather new. They make laptops, cellphones, digital cameras, and pretty…

*Warning* I realized, after writing this post, that I’ve reverted back to my antisocial geeky state. The following post contains raves about a series of game titles I’ve held close to my heart since college. Thus, there is sentimental value for the nostalgia the Orange Box brings as this is basically Part II of where…

[EXCLUSIVE] ShopPay: Taking the online store to the social network
I was out for a few beers with Andrian Lee a few weeks ago. I remember that night clearly because it was then that we dreamt of how easy online transactions would become if PayPal had full support in the Philippines. “How we wish PayPal came soon.” When I got to the car to drive…

Hellgate London Collectors Edition
So dating hasn’t been stellar lately. I’ve decided to take up Lia’s advice and coop myself back into my geeky cave and engage in something unproductive yet fun.

Hush. Let’s watch the sunset.
Sometimes, the best way to get the message across is to give them the silent treatment. 5:24 PM. It was a Sunday. And we watched the sunset. And it was beautiful. Shot using a 350D and kit lens that has not failed me for the past 1 1/2 years. I had a mini tripod and…
