Is Facebook got what Microsoft's need?

| | | | | | | | |

Is Microsoft deserve Facebook? I heard that Microsoft is going to buy Facebook. We know that Microsoft is already in bed with Facebook and best positioned to strike a deal! Microsoft has paid Facebook premium to thwart Google, just to keep Facebook from the prying lenses of Google and Yahoo! What exactly is Microsoft buying here?Technology?

The Good, the Bad and the Worst.

Social networking, its all about us. It was organized around people. Social networking sites can create and maintain relationships that wouldn't have existed otherwise. Myspace, facebook, orkut, friendster and many to names, are just some of the buzziest sites today.

On January 9, 2008, the feast of the Nazarene will be held. In Dasmariñas, Cavite, specifically in Brgy. Luzviminda II, the feast of the Nazarene means something else. It means bargains and sales of computer related items.

It is held annually, in the center of the community, store stalls will be made and all stores will sell computer gadgets, parts, old and new ones, bargain accessories and many more.

This is held to collect funds for the Hesus Nazareno Church, who among the many of its members, are computer geeks and majoring in computer fields.

Designing a Good Database

I remember when I had OJTs last year.  I was happy to have them, seeing them as the new, fresh faces of tomorrow's computing world.  I had two coming from UP LB (Bless and Eleni) and three from UST (Chloe, Sam and Shiela).  Each of them had their own strengths and weaknesses.  Others were born to become leaders, others, merely followers.  Some are innovative, while some rely on your direct input for them to work on.

For the love of Python

Sometimes I wonder, why its so hard to impose a good coding standards for all languages. 

Multilingual Pidgin

Since my switch to Ubuntu, I've been loving every minute of my experience with it.  I've already learned to define the applications that can make my life easier and pinpointed how to rearrange my desktop so that it saves me time and effort when moving around.

Filipino Technology Portal Once More!

| | |

I recently announced that  PinoyTechie.com will be going international. But after giving it some more thought, I decided to revert back to the original purpose of the site, that is, to make PinoyTechie.com a technology portal for Filipinos. I realized that we, Filipinos, can still use another Filipino Technology Portal, that there are functions of this site which cannot be found in other Philippine Technology sites (yet) like a calendar of upcoming technology events, classifieds and jobs sections, etc.
