Thank god, there’s free wifi at Burger King Glorieta in Makati! If I’ve known about this yesterday, I would not have plunked 60 pesos, about $1.25, at the Digital Exchange, 3rd floor of the same mall, for unreliable wifi. Good thing that torrent download also works 
This hotspot is unsecured though.
Its just disappointing. The wifi connection of Globe at the third level, Digital Exchange is intermittent and slow! It would just have been okay if I was just surfing the web but I’m making a transaction and it got cut off!
Just when you think that your malapropisms mispronunciations and slips of the tongue have gone unnoticed, think again! Himantayon: A True Story has enough spies and eavesdroppers to report it, have it listed and share your lapses for the world to have a good laugh at. What’s particularly enjoyable about this website is that its dedicated to the Cebuano dialect or shall I say language?
| Himantayon: A True Story | chronicles the limits of our humanity — in pure, unadulterated Cebuano. We don’t mean to eavesdrop, but some people are just too darned loud. Bato-bato sa langit; ang maigo, ayaw’g ka-panic!
Para jud ni sa BISDAK!
My first submission: Oh names.
I’ve always been fascinated with the colonial period and heritage churches of the country and even before doing the Facades book project for San Agustin Museum, which, by the way, will be launched this 30 August during the International Book Fair, I have already traveled and started documentation work on the existing old churches. Alarmed by the current condition, seeming neglect and lack of sense of history by most people wherein such structures are being demolished, renovated to the point of losing its charm and identity, and thus our heritage, I’ve been planning of making a site dedicated on Philippine heritage churches and other related structures like colonial era cemeteries, forts, watchtowers and convents.
Simbahan is this site wherein I will be featuring these structures in order for people to know the rich built patrimony that we have but sadly, slowly losing. There is a need to know what we have and what we have lost so that we will know what will be preserved and/or restored. Such lofty ambitions but I think with this attempt, I can make a difference. As of now, it’s more of a blog but I will add more information into it and come up with a content managment system (CMS)-type of site using Wordpress. Like salagubang.net, for the meantime, posts are once a week.
For quite sometime now, I’ve been mulling of doing various blogs with specific focus. Rough Groove (this blog) has been around for over 2 and a half years now but really, as a personal blog, the topics are quite varied, hodgepodge or whatever catches my fancy: movies, beetles, heritage, photography, food, travel, etc.
Just a few months after I started with this blog, I decided that I should have another dedicated solely as a photoblog. Thus, Binary Silver was born with the sole objective of showing photos on a daily basis. At first, I used Wordpress but later exported it to Pixelpost. After almost 800 photos later, I finally decided to make changes and thus Binary Silver was switched back to Wordpress considering that, with the current version, it is now more robust and addresses my needs. It is my plan to make it more than just a photoblog and posts relating to photography should go in there, not to this blog anymore. It now has its own domain name: www.binarysilver.com
