WordCamp Philippines 2008
At the suggestion of Manuel Viloria, I started blogging with WordPress and I have been using it for the past three years. Once in a while, I would read posts from a blogger exulting about his conversion to WordPress, and I would be usually nonplussed because it’s all I have ever known. Not that I’m an expert or anything. I attempt once in a while to read the WordPress news, and I’m usually at a loss about the topics, and even more about the details.

Myanmar Lifts Ban and Allows Yahoo! Mail
Myanmar Allows Yahoo Mail On a recent June-July 2008 trip to Myanmar, a friend emailed me from an Internet cafe using her Yahoo email address, which caused me to reply how shocked I was that she was able to access Yahoo!
According to a report during a bloggers’ seminar, iBlog3 in 2007, every Internet user iin Myanmar is required to register, and then, the Internet cafe owner will take his picture every five minutes; plus, all the pages he visits will be reported to the government, which will surely not include Yahoo or Google mail.
Camel Appliances First Time Purchase
26 June 2008 found me inspecting electric fans at the SM Megamall Appliance Center in order to replace a totally non-rotating electric fan. In fact, in its last few days of rotary life, I had to coax the fan blades to turn with an inserted chopstick through the fan guard to give the blades the necessary pushes to make them turn. And, just in case you’re wondering why I didn’t have it repaired, I couldn’t, because I don’t know of any nearby shop which repairs electric fans. And, since the electric fan is my one and only source of cooling ventilation, it was imperative that I replace it immediately.
