Do you have your own domain and would like to use it with Gmail? For example, you purchased yourowndomain.com and would like to have an email account such as admin@yourowndomain.com and you need a mail space that is bigger that the usual 100 – 200MB bundled email account from your domain registrar, then Gmail is a good choice for you.

I admit, Freedom Wall is hosted at Freehostia, but before that, I was using blogger and I was really disappointed when they (their virtual robot) tagged my blog as spam, thus, they put it offline and I eventually lost all my 200+ articles. Sad thing is, I wasn’t able to keep a backup. So, as a sort of advice make it as a habbit. Blog export is good way of backing up your blog because if you opt to change your host due to disappointment, you can always keep your articles’ publication dates. Yes, it was midst of 2010 when I lost ... Read more

An intensity 6.7 earthquake struck 10 kilometers off the coast of Tayasan town in Negros Oriental at 11:49AM, February 6, 2012. Other reports said 6.8, 6.9, and even intensity 7.0 in Dumaguete City and I have completely no idea which report is saying the exact figure. A tsunami warning was raised after the said quake which had caused panic to the residents which, I believe, was lifted at 2:30PM today. And for an individual like me whose family reside in the affected area was to get an assurance of their safety. I am receiving text messages from my Mom that they ... Read more

I am a technical writer, and MS Word is one of the tools I am using in my job. Since I don’t always bring a laptop with me, I look for an Android app which I can use for my HTC in case there are urgent edits or revisions in my work. I tried Polaris Office, but, aside from the bulk in app size which cannot be moved to SD storage, it has limited editing features and does not support PowerPoint. So I uninstalled the app. I tried looking for similar app and then I found Documents To Go, but ... Read more

After a careful consideration and evaluation on whether I go for Blackberry bold 9300 or HTC Explorer, I finally decided to take the later. The only edge Blackberry has against HTC is its BBM service and since only few of my friends use Blackberry and there are other several multi-platform messaging service available in applications stores or markets, I scratched the option of having BBM on my phone. Also, I am hearing that RIM (Blackberry OS developer) is considering options of making BBM be available on other platforms like Android and iOS, though its a paid app. December 23, 2011 ...

It has been three years since my grandmother’s death. Love has always been synonymous to her existence. I had lived twenty-two beautiful years of my life because of the reality that she had loved me so much beyond words can ever explain. I guess it is the kind of love that transcends through time and yet no words can exactly capture its existence. After her death, I realized that I had so much love for her. And I thought that love will always be for her. Life after her death has been very struggling. I wake up each day relinquishing ... Read more

2011 was the most challenging year for me. If ever someone would be interested to know my biography, I would highlight such year to be the toughest year. I couldn’t count the intances that my heart beat faster than normal, the nights which I hadn’t get enough and restful sleep, and the workdays where I only kept on browsing on outside opportunities. Arrhythmia and sleeping disorder were some of the few harvests I raked from the distinguished people’s seeds. Why I say so? It was April when my father was diagnosed of Microscopic Hematuria, a disease secondary to possible cardiovascular ... Read more
