How do you store your gadgets?
Two things: With the exponential increase in gear lying around the room, it made sense to find a worry-free way to store everything. After dabbling with an underwater DSLR housing, I NEED to become more OC when it comes to storage. The housing itself requires diligent maintenance at home. Which is why I sent Jan…

Philippines: Bongga Ka Dive! My idea on how to boost tourism
EDIT: Because I believe in localization, the vernacular tagline is now PHILIPPINES: BONGGA KA DIVE! As a diver, I am biased. Beyond the traditional way of viewing the Philippines as the “land of the smiles” and having some of the “best hospitality in the world” and “great beaches” one of the recreational activities that isn’t…

And now, a special message from the author of this blog
Dear readers, I’ve served as the resident blogger and proprietor of A Bugged Life for the past 5 years. Even longer if you count my original domain at http://20six.co.uk/abuggedlife (sadly I don’t have the password anymore).

I think speakers should use this as a backdrop to introducing themselves before they speak
I’ve been waiting to get my hands on a beta invite for about.me. First heard about this from a TWiT episode with Ryan Block of Engadget and GDGT fame as one of the guys behind this project. i guess if the Facebook of way way back was implemented today, this would be it (good points…

How far would you go to buy your gadgets?
I have a friend who flies to Hong Kong on a semi-regular basis. He takes the first flight in and the last flight out on the same day. He takes a big bag filled with a change of clothes and his camera, so that the authorities, at least, don’t find him suspicious of TNT. Upon…

Two weeks with the Medal of Honor Reboot
I’m not sure what was more annoying — getting spammed with cheap knife kills in Modern Warfare 2 or getting one-shotted with semi-auto sniper rifles in Medal of Honor. But nonetheless, EA’s latest shooter has gotten me hooked. OK a bit of perspective — I’ve been playing the MoH series since Allied Assault in 2002.…

It’s 3:01 AM. Forty minutes into my sleep. I forgot to send an email. Woke up. Un-sleep the MacBook. Sent email. Checked other browser tabs. Saw posts about a particular 1:43 band on Plurk and a couple of blogs. Clicked on the link. Saw this: OMG.

Blogging takes me places. This year it reunited me with someone I used to work with at my quasi-agency life. We worked really well together in the past and when he asked for my help to do some ground breaking work for a new venture in front of Burgos Circle at the Fort Global City,…

When the executive chef invites you to a steak dinner, say yes!
This is Chef Rhey Huergas, Executive Chef for Friday’s. Do a search for him on Google or Bing and you’ll see that he’s media-decorated. I met him because he’s the cousin of a friend I work with. We were at Friday’s at the time (DOH!), the day was a bitch, and boy were we hungry.…

Geeky Coffee: Reverse Vacuum Packed Alamid
One of the reasons why I still continue to blog to this day is because I get tipped with interestingly geeky things from around the country. This is one of them. It’s rather close to my heart because we’re talking about coffee. Inside the can is 50 grams of coffee Alamid, the world’s rarest brew.…
