Archive for the ‘UltraElectroMagnetic Blog’ Category

Reading my emails as usual, I came across this article from IT Business Edge saying that he (Don Tennant) no longer wants his iPhone or any products made by Apple itself. After reading the article it made sad that he marked iPod Touch and iPhone users as lapdogs. The issue is 8 months old but it was pretty much insulting on my side as an Apple consumer and I had to speak for myself.

I know that human rights is a big deal but I think the blog went a bit overboard by saying harsh things to the consumer. Not all consumers know these things and informing the public on how Apple run things is more than enough. The blog though is easily indexed by search engines because of the keywords used as a lot of people are looking into this nifty piece of technology and wants to enjoy it’s benefits. From what I can see Don wanted to inform the public and get its sympathy and teach Apple a lesson by boycotting the company which is one in a million chances could happen but then again would take more than a simple blog entry that bashes its consumers rather than getting a on to their good side.  

And it’s even more galling that the media and Apple enthusiasts buy into it like docile lap dogs, happily chasing the bones that Jobs throws out, and reverently licking up the crumbs under his theatrical table.”

Something Nice and New

   Posted by: GC

I’m currently working on a new design for my website. I got a lot of things in mind to make better SEO (Search Engine Optimization) results. It may take awhile before I upload the new design since I’m working with Illustrator CS4 while trying to decide whether I should stay on an HTML based website or go full flash. I’ve read a few articles saying that full flash websites does not work too well with SEO.

While writing this post I began to realize why some coffee shops with free WiFi access set their room temperature to 16 or so degrees… Unless you are really used to this temperature, you’d last for only an hour or so because of the bitter cold that numbs your palms. Funny how they only keep the electrical outlets inside the shop and yes the WiFi access extends to the a certain radius but some coffee shops does not offer an extension outlet. If you plan to stay for more than an hour on this coffee shop to work for an hour or two using your laptop either you bring a jacket or freeze to death. We marked the mobile experience here as “FAILED”. This coffee shop is just besides RoadHouse Grill in Boni Highstreet.

Meet Corrine

I got his habit of giving names to my stuff that means a lot to me. From my guitars to my computers and other gadgets that I bought. After my iPod “G” and “Eleanor” (C2Q) desktop last June 28, 2009 we purchased a Compaq CQ40-340TU from Asianic, SM North EDSA Annex branch. I was just planning to get the CQ40-108TU which was on sale at that time. Unfortunately the last laptop was sold out because it only cost 19,995.00PHP on Silicon Valley, SM North EDSA. They told me to go to Robinson’s Pioneer to check if they still have it available. This is a dual core laptop with 2Ghz processor that is more than enough to get the job done for my freelance work. They’ve sold 6 units when I got there and the last piece will be sold on a cheaper price since it has a small crack on the battery case. The store manager or whatever they call him left Silicon Valley Robinson’s Pioneer left without giving them instructions on how much they would sell it. So there, I looked around and found this nifty Compaq laptop from Villman. They also said that they are taking 3,500PHP off from the original price and the unit comes with a free Vista Starter disc and a Globe Prepaid Broadband Tattoo for 29,948.00 PHP :| We browsed for more shops and found a better deal from Asianic, same laptop for a cheaper price (comes with the same package as Villman’s) with a free 1Gb memory upgrade.

For the Love of Music

   Posted by: GC

I hope you enjoyed the song from my previous post “Close Up Commercial 2009″. I never really had the full details of who, what where and when was the commercial published and who the cast were. One thing is for sure I got a lot of hits and emails from those who loved to have the song. The word “Iklan” means “commercial” or “advertisement” in Indonesia and the song title is “Come Closer” or “Paas Aao Na” since this is a common theme for the toothpaste ad. It is not Rico Blanco who composed this song, he made his own version and that is final. If he had this song on his released album “Your Universe” (which I never had a chance to listen nor got interested after he left Rivermaya – pardon me RB fans) before September 2008 then I rest my case (for now), there is a possibility that he did composed it. A lot of viewers from my YouTube account has been debating over this song. At first it was all about “what is the title of the song” questions (which was included on the video’s title) to “where can I download this song?” (this can be found on the video’s information on the upper right corner) after Rico Blanco made his version they started to argue who really composed the song. I’m not saying that RB’s version is all bad but I’m not saying that it’s that good either. Read the rest of this entry »
