Pilipinas, slow ba internet niyo?! Slow na!

Internet Phail on August 12, 2009

Okay, so the Philippines isn’t very famous for their internet speed. In fact, for some who have gone abroad they all gush saying:

“It was internet Haven!”

“YouTube loads so fast!”

“The pages load so fast, I don’t even click them anymore!”

(okay so there may be something wrong with the last one)

So why is our internet slow today?

Here’s a very reliable source:

According to them the cause of  slow internet speed:

1.Philippines and Singapore affected.
2.There is still internet, but slower connection
3.Problem is due to disruption in the underwater cables
4.The problem will be solved in around 24 hours, so it MIGHT be okay around Aug. 13

So conclusion, what can you do?

-Plurk
-Twitter
-Chat (but for YM, file sharing is a bit of a prob)

For a country that is strongly dependent on Internet, this is something quite alarming.
Hope our connection returns back to normal… which in other nations would be considered.. well abnormally slow.

Live Life to the Fullest

August 9th, 2009 by The Photoblogger

Happiness is simplicity

Life in its simplest pleasures.
Often times, in the pursuit of getting what we desire we forget what is important in life. We become shrouded in the hunger for power, for wealth, for fame, and for most of us… for love.
These flames of desires, instead of motivating us and helping us to move forward, become untame to the point of consuming us. But it is also in brief moments that we stop and embrace, the simple joys of other people. And it is on those moments, that we are once more, awakened.

Vlogging Favorites: Photoblogger’s Choice

July 24th, 2009 by The Photoblogger

I’ve been very much curious at the world of vlogging…

For most of us who are into blogging, we stick to our comfort zones of blogging with text only or using of images found in the web.

For some of us, we actually go into the effort of using only our own personal pictures or pictures we took ourselves (trivia: except for the print screens, Focal Glass uses only images taken by Photoblogger himself)
