GE X500 Sample Photos

GE X500 is my first point-and-shoot, which I bought for blogging purposes. The factors I considered in choosing the camera is its 15X optical zoom, the SLR-like body, easy grip, the 16 mega-pixel image sensor, the presets, and the versatile mode dial. I am not that familiar with the technicalities of the gadget so I ask some friends’ advice on adjusting the aperture size and shutter speed of the camera’s manual mode dial. Below are the sample shots I got when I visited Baguio, the City of Pines, last March 18, 2012. You can click on the image to see ... Read more

WebHostingWorld.net Review and My Disappointments

The review I have in the following paragraphs are based solely on the hosting services I availed at WebHostingWorld.net (WHW) and the experiences I had with their support team. This blog was peacefully online and functioning with 100% uptime at Freehostia before I transferred to WebhostingWord.net. Since Freehostia does not support SMTP, I looked for a cheap hosting provider that supports the service. Then I stumbled at WebhostingWorld.net website. February 14, 2012 when I joined WebhostingWorld.net. I availed their Bronze Plan, which cost a dollar for a month of hosting service. I purchased the one year plan because it is a convenient payment ... Read more

What is causing my Blog a 403 Forbidden Error?

Lately, my blog got a 403 forbidden error and it was too late to find out. My third party analytics tool showed that my blog isn’t consuming any bandwidth nor receiving any visits for a day so I check my page. Upon checking, whoah!, it shows a 403 Forbidden error. Panic? Yes! Because I am already paying a webhost (after a month of stay at Freehostia) and I am working hard to get a higher rank for my blog but then in an instant, my sweat will just be spent in vain? What is 403 forbidden error by the way? ... Read more

A review on HTC Explorer A310E

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 ...

A Review of Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon

Watching the trailer excites me. I know in the first place that these machines will really make out big once it starts rolling. I was so lucky to be one of those early birds to watch the movie in advance. Near midnight of June 28 (GMT+8:00) when I took my first glimpse of Micheal Bay’s Transformers: Dark of the Moon in 3D, in which I guess add up to my pile of excitements. Revealed was, Neil Armstrong’s trip to moon was not merely to study the moon and its physical and chemical characteristics but also too look for an unidentified ... Read more

Green Lantern Quote

Just done watching the screening of DC’s latest offerring at the CS in MOA alone. I love this quote so I wont let this pass even though I already posted this on FB. Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds) was chosen by the ring to be part of the the Green Lantern Corps, making him the only human in the row. However he is reluctant to take the responsibility because he is afraid and the “job description” of being a green lantern is being fearless. What awakens him is Carol Ferris (Blake Lively) quoting, “You are chosen not because you are fearless ... Read more

Priest: A New Cinematic Excitement

It is anticipated, of course, due to the multiple times of moving the release date. I guess May 13 of this year would be final.Unlike other vampire movies where priests are just extras of the film or even victims themselves of the vampire bite, this movie features a vampire killer priest named Priest. This is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller which is set in an alternate world where the humanity and the vampires have warred for centuries. “The priests of our story are like Jedi knights. They have these supernatural abilities to fight vampires and they saved humanity before the movie ... Read more
