Smart Bro Rocket Plug-it promises up to 12mbps

babyface — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 16:21:58 +0000

Smart Bro Rocket Plug It was officially launched today at the price of P3,995 and it promise the speed of up to 12mbps and it runs on HSPA+.

This dongle will be available in the wireless smart centers nationwide. Remember that 4G is available only in major cities of the Philippines, so do not expect a 12Mpbs full blast on your download speed.

This is the list of Smart’s HSPA+ covered areas thanks to Yugatech.

Even though it is capable of up to 12mbps speed, there will be no unlimited packages for this dongle and will be per data package just like Smart’s Always On and P10 per 30 minutes.

So what’s the use of 12mbps if you’re limited to 180mb for P200? lolz…

*unli surf for Smart Bro Rocket Plug-It is available until September 30.

Internet Explorer 9 beta download

babyface — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 16:55:03 +0000

Microsoft released it’s beta of Internet Explorer 9 today, it will be available for Vista and Windows 7. The new version has a new look and it claims that it is compliant with HTML5, CSS3 and SVG2 standards and with full hardware acceleration. Internet Explorer 9 Beta has a lot of new features like new design (top tab just like chrome), a unified search and URL bar (another one from chrome), an enlarged back button (from FF),New Tab window with thumbnails that shows your most commonly-visited sites (similar to chrome).

But there’s something new that you wont find in other browser is the unique UI enhancements, new notification system (wherein a slim notificationslide up from the bottom of the screen if there’s an error or something instead of a pop-up), the unique feature of Internet Explorer 9 would be the ability to PIN a web page to your Windows taskbar. *COOL*, and some performance features.

The final version of Internet Explorer 9 would be available later this year or early 2011, no words at all as of this time.

The question is, will Internet Explorer 9 beta be as good as chrome or firefox or will it surpase it in terms of reliability and performance? we’ll see…

Download link for Internet Explorer 9 is HERE (choose from different languages)

Who wouldn’t want an android phone?

babyface — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 14:57:39 +0000

Well, everyone wants new phone but a lot of us can’t afford a new model phone, just like me. It’s been a year since I planned and started saving money for a new phone but until now, I haven’t got the chance to bury (LOLz) my 5 years old pal, the N6630. But right now, Jehzeel Laurente of Jehzlau-Concept.com is giving away an android phone, the Samsung i5700 Galaxy Spica.

Well, why I deserve the Samsung i5700 Galaxy Spica? because my 6630 is dying, casing has no lock anymore(back), color is cracking, MMC died on me last year(haha..), fully bloated battery… Another reason why I deserve this android phone is that, it can help me to update this blog more often and since Android is an Open source, it might as well help me test my programming abilities..lolz… Too bad I don’t have a picture of my phone since I don’t have a Digicam. Oh well, good luck to all even though I don’t stand a chance on this one.

According to PC World, Milan tweeted: “I personally did not expect that a large number of days out Facebook. But there is something that should not be too viral to succeed.”

On the site says that they care and are concerned about the future of the World Wide Web, and Facebok will not have a positive impact on the future of the Internet “, so we’re leaving.”

Currently, there are almost 33,759 users are steadfast in leaving facebook, but it is uncertain if they will actually deactivate or have deactivated their accounts.

FireFTP: Free FTP addon

babyface — Wed, 19 May 2010 02:31:46 +0000

If you are a webmaster or runs a self hosted blog, it is required to have a FTP client to upload your files into your webhost like themes, etc. There are FTP clients out there, commercial or open source, you name it.

But as of me, I use FireFTP. Why? Because FireFTP is easy to use and addon for Mozilla Firefox, for easy access to your FTP.

Some of it’s features:

It’s free!

Installed Ubuntu 10.04

admin — Mon, 03 May 2010 13:53:21 +0000

Out of boredom and frustration because my partition was deleted for some reasons(not my fault >_<), I have upgraded my Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04. I have dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu a long time already but didn’t bother using Ubuntu.

First problem (since im not familiar with Linux,lol) is the installation/upgrading of graphics driver.

Second is the Screen Resolution

Third is Flash Player for Firefox

Fourth is the sound(The foolish thing I’ve ever done..)

Well, everything is OK now.. hopefully…

Are you a jejemon?

admin — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 15:06:50 +0000

Seriously, where did the word jejemon came from? Based on Urban Dictionary,

Jejemon

- a person WhO tyPeZ lYKeS tH1s pfOuh..
whether you are RICH, MIDDLE CLASS or POOR ifpK eU tYpE L1K3 tHiS pfOuh..eU are CONSIDERED AS JEJEMON.

- can also include a variety of Latino-Hispanic fags who enjoy typing “jejejejeje” in a wider context, usually people who types jejeje instead of hehehe…

They are not only seen around social networking sites such as Friendster, Facbook and Multiply, but they are also seen even through SMS. They are the people who is a trying-hard gangsters and emos, they may find it very amusing but if you’re not aware of that, it will take you a lot of patience reading their message.

A lot of them are already invading fecebook, but a lot of people are also against them by making pages that makes fun of them.

Examples of Jejemon:

ex. 1. “omg! my sister farted” jejeje
ex. 2. 3Ohw phOwh eVeR1yBhOodY! jejeje!
ex. 3. pFroUwd 2 b @ jEJ3mOn!

Sadly, most of the jejemons are male who you wouldn’t thought that they type/text like that because they may look though but they have a low IQ.lol

Jejemons already invaded Online games, not just local online games but even international games.. XD

*Typo of the facebook is intentional for some reasons…
