"Soon thereafter, everything we are using will stay in the cloud!" Well, what does really " Cloud Computing " means? Salesforce.com has a pretty decent explanation about cloud computing on how this operates between the user and within the Internet. Cloud means, the Internet. Conceptually, Cloud Computing is designed to make abstracted behind the users of the software, where no need for in-depth knowledge of some specific software. Actually, Cloud Computing will be far more adapted for so many years. Watch this movie from Salesforce.com: Well, why should I say that? Well, as we all know, globally, we are down with such crisis. Financially really hit many countries down, specially the United States of America (well, thanks God, this happens because alternatives are arising!). Cloud computing doesn't want you to buy or pay every applications you use. It does only counts every time you use your applications, basing on how much have you used or scaling your statistic...

Ever since I'm connecting to my wireless router WRT54GL from LinkSys, I never thought of WPA and the wpa_supplicant for my Slackware Linux box. I do connect through WEP security mode for my encryption algorithm. I know it's just a basic authorization for my wireless, instead with wpa_supplicant for WPA, until I found out that my neighbors are abusing my connection, and don't want my stuffs to be exposed. It was funny actually when my neighbors approach me and ask me if I'm the owner of that connection that they able to detect, and say, "hey, don't put any password on that". Really, it sounds daring and hilarious but rude. I do connect from my Slackware Linux via shell using the commands: $> ifconfig wlan0 up $> iwlist wlan0 scan $> iwconfig wlan0 essid "myssid" key "8EEDEEFE41" $> dhcpcd wlan0 The first command will take my wireless LAN card to be up, which actually down during start up. Somewhat like, disable and enabl...

In reference from the site of Prosperity.com , please see the image posted below for the list of country rankings for Prosperity in 2009. As far as I've read their downloadable PDF file , Legatum are basing their surveys from an objective data and subjective responses. These involve the status quo of every country in its stance. Prosperity embodies health, personal freedom, wealth or financial security, good fortune, as well as environmental living, success, and flourishing. My country, Philippines, is enlisted in the rank 55 th position. I'm just curious why USA is enlisted at the 9th position. I thought, the USA are much bogged with the global financial crisis, but well, President Barack Obama did aleviate its prosperity back astir. I've read the article from Yahoo, seemingly agreeing it's position. The country has it's economic boom, but their government and politics are too tight for me, to think of, when it comes to personal freedom. One thing I might, in my ...

My first impression for this song was from a boy band, and I hate boy band. Never knew that this from MLTR ( Michael Learns To Rock ) band. I love MLTR, of course, back in my younger years playing with my guitars. Have a try to listening to their song. It's a pop song but it's actually a cool song. I have pasted also the lyrics, so if you wanna song feeling like in a karaoke bar (so do I?), have fun singing the song. It’s Gonna Make Sense Life comes in many shapes You think you know what you got untill it changes And life will take you high and low you gotta learn how to walk and then which way to go Every choice you make when you’re lost Every step you take has it’s cause Chorus: After you clear your eyes you’ll see the light somewhere in the darkness After the rain has gone you’ll feel the sun comes and though it seems your sorrow never ends someday its gonna make sense Tears you shed are all the same when you laughed ’till you cried or broken down in pain All the hours you h...

Updating a computer BIOS is really trivial. Once you come up into trouble with your BIOS, like a failure during update, or an error that will cause it a failure update, might turn you into trouble by perhaps a total replacement of your motherboard, unless you are really prepared for things to do. In my experience, it's not that, it's actually easier than what I think before taking an attempt to update. My CPU's motherboard is PM8PM-V from MSI . I follow the guidelines I have read from MSI, using their live update, but it comes into trouble when it goes a failure update. Now, since I did skip the "Create a disk Recovery", where it needs a floppy drive (but who uses a floppy drive this days?), and now, I'm in trouble with my BIOS. Since I have my floppy, but have never used for almost more than 2 years, now it seemed my floppy drive is a little bit dusty inside because it always fails to ready any floppy disk I have. Luckily, I have a floppy disk cleaner I boug...

It's the mark of the end from the starter back on the early years of Yahoo. Founded by David Bohnett and John Rezner , the company is shutting down it's service effective this October 26, 2009. Maybe later, my time here is GMT +8:00. Geocities have been a massive users using it's service. It's actually cool back then, some of it's competitors like Angelfire which was also ceased it's opertion in 2002.

There are many tools in the internet built now these days. One of the tools I mostly used is to convert a page, an HTML page, to PDF because I like PDF format to read and and shared also with my friends. I use this tools in the net: http://www.htm2pdf.co.uk/default.aspx http://www.htmltopdf.co.uk/ And after I grab this pdf convert pages, I stored it via Google docs . When storing in Google Docs, I do always make my documents in order so that it would be easier for me to locate things I need to find or use. Try it, and it's really helpful to store your documents in PDF being centralized. PDF viewer from Google too is really awesome!

This video was caught on CCTV (Closed-Circuit Television) where a man, who was identified as Chris Anthony Togle, a City Hall employee of Davao City. Just watch the video below, and this guys are really exchanging bullets with the heat they feel without thinking they might be dead or they would kill their fellowmen. I hope there will be more CCTV's here in Davao. For the latest Philippine news stories and videos, visit GMANews.TV
