Visita Iglesia Online

The longest holiday here in the Philippines is upon us. During Maundy Thursday, we Catholics observe the tradition of “Visita Iglesia” where we visit 7 (some visit up to 14) churches.

Now with very high gasoline prices, humidity and the summer heat, this may task is not fit for everybody. Good thing, the Catholic Church (CBCP) launched VisitaIglesia.Net where you can do your Visita Iglesia online right in the comfort of your couch. Yeah, this is endorsed!

New Year’s Resolutions and Gaming

The new year is upon us. And, like last year, I’m off to make another list of New Year’s resolutions… most of which will be just for moot.

Totally Cool and Creative Billboards

Photobucket

Billboards are a great marketing tool. If yours is just like everyone else’s, you probably won’t get that many “looks”. In the above example, the marketers advertised the movie, Kill Bill 2 (in auckland, New Zealand) with the ad splashing blood everywhere.

Marketing is always about being creative. A “just-like-the-others” attitude won’t cut it. Here are some great, creative executions which deserve a second look (literally)…

Short Hiatus

Was away from the online world the past couple of days due to backing up ALL important data, movies, photos and what-have-i off my PC. I also had to reinstall Windows, not to mention, format all the PC hard drives. Whew! Tough job!

Was forced to buy the new Western Digital Passport essential 500GB just for this purpose. It was worth it. At least I have all my important info at the palm of my hand. Too bad the PC store ain’t got the 1TB version without the AC power. Oh well… that will have to wait.

Some proponents of the underground industry are adamant that the supply is still huge. They think that gold farming will continue to exist because players will continue to look for it and pay for it. “The reason people buy gold is the same reason they pay people to wash their car – they would rather spend money than do it themselves”, said one anonymous Chinese gold farmer.

Let’s take a look at the current state of the Chinese gold farming industry and take a behind-the-scenes-look at 2 actual employees.
