Yep ! I had the opportunity to discover this MEEBO.com site from work while most of my co-workers surf on the internet and peeked on what they are browsing. Computer terminals were restricted to us but the technical side of these people got their way on bypassing the restrictions on the internet surfing. And so was this messenger thingy.

Well if you are on the go and desperately needed to go online and IM someone but with much luck the computer you rent doesnt have any IM installed, then this must be the answer to your prayer. MEEBO.com was created with AJAX program (do i know what am I talking about?) by which offers strong encryption of your password and does not store any information in any way EXCEPT if you join the MEEBO community.

BTW, I was amused (if not so suprised) to see there is a FILIPINO version of the site. You will be able to see a lot of language version at the bottom of the main page, and I tried switching to Filipino language. A little bit similar to the Google.com.ph page, the words that were translated sounds funny. But not a big issue though!

You can safely login to the site without being a member of MEEBO. But if you like this site so much and wanted to maximize its features… then go join the Meebo community, fill in the username and password and then HIT Pasok

Ha ha ha ha ha!!! ((RLOF))

Hi! You can now reach me through Google Talk! I’ve been invading the IMs online one by one anyway. I use Miranda IM (a free GPL source of IM) for me to access all my IM accounts as one. The Jabber plugin is the one I use to connect to Google Talk.

Well here are my IDs generated through Email Icon Generator that I use:

Profile Updates


Written on March 5, 2006 – 3:16 am | by orirunaway

I’ve got a hard time deleting my pictures on my profile so that I can use and test my film strip from photobucket.com - I can suggest that friendster foto gallery should improve like: selecting the picture and delete by batch rather than individually delete it especially that if a user had maximized the feature and which has 50 pictures on it. And!!! Some suggestion of updating the page immediately if a user made any changes on the profile because its very hard to determine if we successfully had made the change - especially to those dial up users who had frequent phone line interruptions (like me! arggghhhh!!!!).

Anyway people!!! I’m planning to post my flash presentation on my profile. It is a movie with a *.wmv format but I converted it to a *.swf format using the Flash MX program I had installed on the computer. So I had a 12MB flash movie already compressed from 32MB wmv movie. But I was trying to compress it more by lessening the quality of the movie, hopefully it would be 8 or 7MB after. Now you have an overview if you want to try to view the movie… it would take decades for dial up users to see that. Actually it was 2MB more than what I had posted before - the Friendster "Pinoy Ako" video (which would be 5MB in size). The movie was all about… nah, it would be surprise!

:: Moblog in Friendster


Written on January 7, 2006 – 9:27 pm | by orirunaway

That sounds new in Friendster! But, I’m not yet sure if that is locally working here in the Philippines upon the availability of service providers. I just found this ’secret’ menu while browsing on my friendster blog settings: account settings (|help|log out)> mobile settings. I haven’t try it yet, maybe sooner… as soon as I have a camphone again.

ATTENTION: To all Filipino residents!


Written on January 6, 2006 – 6:02 pm | by orirunaway

RECENTLY, I’ve received several emails from friends/colleagues who were referring me to sign up on a certain site in able to win an Ipod Nano as soon as I do the same, referring the site to others for them to sign up. Well, does it hurt for me to state that site? Besides, I’ve already encountered a lot of the same site as that before. Some offers not only Ipods, but also Plasma TVs, digicams, Sony Playstations,  (etc. electronic gadgets) - all depends on how many that you could successfully make your referrals signed up on that site. The more referrals, the larger the prize you could get.

Hmn. Tempting it may seems, that those sites make you signed up. Nothing would harm you if you would try, wouldn’t be? Malay mo, makalusot! BUT, have you ever tried reading the TERMS and CONDITIONS, and PRIVACY POLICY of those sites? Hmp, nakakatamad nang magbasa nun, ang haba-haba kasi at puro blah blah blah… you might say. I feel the same way too, it makes me weary reading those thingies. Yet, it is worth reading it. If you’re too tired to bother, why not just go into the details? TRY TO LOOK FOR THE LIABILITY OF THE SITE.

Directing my message to you all my fellow filipinos, either online novices or experts, I looked for the liability in the Privacy and Policy of the site that was referred to me through email, the site namely: American Survey Alliance. Stated below:

Use By Non United States residents is Prohibited

AmericanSurveyAlliance is intended solely for use by residents of the
United States. All persons not residing in the United States are
prohibited from registering on AmericanSurveyAlliance.

I’m sorry, but it is just a waste of time to sign up when it is just clearly stated that it prohibits non-U.S. residents to register. Pls. practice to read (if not, look) the liabilities of sites that are offering you products/freebies as soon as you register. Especially that you already had multiple accounts everywhere on the web (like me!), safety is a must… now that scams, and people that are fooling us to produce money in an easy way, is everywhere. Naniniwala ako na kung gaano kadali magkaroon ng pera, ganun din kadali mawala ang pera. Though not all times this proves to be true - but rarely it would happen, estimating, 5 out of 100.

Some sites like that, enables worldwide participation, but for a cost. Like product shipping, premium memberships, blah blah… and besides looking for liabilities, look for the DATA COLLECTION/SECURITY/INFORMATION SHARING of sites when you sign up.

Well as for me, I’m currently in the middle of the doubt regarding a certain company on U.S. who offers me direct employment, with all the fees paid for FREE. Tempting? I already paid a certain amount but it is not a fee. Now, I couldn’t contact the representatives here in the Philippines. THIS SERVES AS ANOTHER  LESSON FOR ME. Kasi! Sinabihan ko na nga mother ko na parang PEKE talaga ang company na yon, i-TRY pa rin daw with all the usual - "malay mo?" Damn. I KNEW it, it is all obvious on the way they wrote the email that they were fooling us. I keep reminding my mom that it seems fake, but she keeps hoping it is not. They were just wasting my time when instead I should be devoted in searching more liable jobs.

No worry, I’ll document the company HERE as soon as I proved it to be fooling a lot of people. Remember, put a doubt in an EASY opportunity and go for a HARD opportunity. You know what I mean, mahina ako sa english grammar eh. Hehe!

What’s Up w/ ME on Technology?


Written on December 29, 2005 – 2:21 am | by orirunaway

Okay. Podcasting may not have that big difference from Audio blogging or Video blogging, it’s just a matter of multimedia blogging and subscribing of multimedia addicts from feeds. So, how do I podcast? (Though I just did one post of podcast - for the sake of trying)

I use Blogger.com as my blogging medium, and Feedburner.com as my feed publisher. The feedburner automatically converts every audio or video (that is being posted on blogger) to a podcast, in able for the feed subscribers easily download the file and play it on their players. Well, I’m not that geeky yet regarding feeds, but at my side I know how it works on different feed aggregators (feed readers). Feedburner uses RSS, while blogger auto-generates XML. Further guides/instructions are presented on Feedburner.com on how to use it with different blog publishers (at the right side of their page). Start it from there ( I just followed the guides).

Note: A special page is generated from feedburner.com that appears on RSS Readers of subscribers.

For recording a speech or sound, I use Audacity. And for hosting my media files, I signed up on Files Villagephotos, though the only downside is its limited bandwidth per day. If it reaches its bandwidth quota, the media can’t be shown on where it is posted (for images) and wouldn’t be available (for audio, video - though I think it can still be downloaded, just can’t stream it live).

I also registered at Mobile Audioblogging (jeez, I’m everywhere on the WEB!) of Blogger.com, but never yet tried using their number to audio blog. It was obviously going to be expensive since the number given to be dialled is a U.S. number. Speaking of mobile… the latest about me… I changed my mobile unit again and downgraded from N3650 to a new N2600 (mahirap buhay ngayon eh) and also changed my mobile network from SMART to TM. I wanted to try the G-Cash and I’m already registered to it. Kulang na lang eh yung cash - na ica-cash-in ko, hehe.

Adding to my mobility, I downloaded Portable Mozilla Thunderbird (a mail client like Outlook Express or Eudora) for my 128MB PQI Flash Drive (di ko kaya ang presyo ng 256, 512 at lalo na ang 1GB eh) and copied my profile folder from my Mozilla Thunderbird on my desktop to sync my existing mail, folders, and settings. It was few months ago when I bought the flash drive from ECBUYPH.COM for price of PhP920.00 (plus PhP50.00 of shipment). But currently, they were selling away the same unit for PhP800.00. That site has an awsome list of electronics, with bulky features and some giveaway prices, I even thought of being a Reseller, but nevermind… my mom doesn’t have money for a capital either. Check it.

I learned about the Portable Mozilla Thunderbird from ComputerWorld magazine. It enables us to check our mail anywhere we go, and saves the downloaded mails that we don’t have to download it again and again. I have to say, that magazine is very informative! Buy it or bettery yet subscribe to it. Haha.

Anyway, my PC have been infected with malwares and spywares (hijackers, data miners, etc.) recently. How did I know? Well, it’s the common symptoms of redirection of my Internet Explorer’s homepage. It is supposed to be on its default home: blank, but instead as I open the IE it redirects to another site. I always changed it to blank again but upon reboot, here we go again.

I scanned my PC with AD-AWARE SE Personal and found some critical objects. I ran the Yahoo Anti-Spy found on Yahoo Toolbar and found another remaining spyware. Upon reboot, the homepage stubbornly changed again. It was my first time to encounter a stubborn spyware. So I seeked help and found the Tech Support Forum, with the subforum of Security Center. From the help of the Spyware experts, I was able to download and run 5 or more Anti-Spyware softwares:

  • Ewido Security Suite
  • Panda Active Scan (Free online Scan)
  • HijackThis (deeper PC scans)
  • Killbox
  • CleanUp!
  • etc… (some online scans)

That resolved my problem, but spywares keep infecting me so I keep some softwares in regular running for maintenance, and switched from IE to Mozilla Firefox for safer surfing (IEs more vulnerable to malwares). Aside from its tabbed browsing, it also has a few internal search engines to choose from depending on where you want to focus searching, which I liked best. Plus the popup blocker of firefox, Zone Alarm Pro also effectively does the blocking of ads for me (even the triple X ads inside the webpages are blocked).Mfse

  • Google
  • Yahoo - alternative, and I like its "open on a new window" icon option search
  • Creative Commons - for licensed and protected articles search
  • Odeo - for podcast searches
  • Technorati - for tech blogs searches
  • Download.com - for software downloads search; and
  • Wikepedia - for definition searches

You can optionally add search engines for your personal needs.

My PC is still striving to live though it is already 3 to 4 years old without hardware upgrades. Haha. Actually, it is starting to show some deteriorating symptoms.

  1. The system’s clock is unable to update accurately its time - meaning that the CMOS battery (with a minimum lifespan of 3 years) is already low, and needs replacement anytime now.
  2. The fan of my AGP card had stopped and made my monitor occassionally show green-red-orange block of lines. But good thing I was able to resolved it by putting an oil (baby oil, because any oil would do the trick) and loosen its spin. The fan smoothly spins again.
  3. At night when the PC is on, the only thing that is noisy is the UPS. Especially the cluttering noise as soon as it is turned on. I calculated the power consumption of each of my components if the 250Watts capacity of UPS is still capable of handling it plus the add on CD ROM. Well, almost 250Watts… means, needs newer and larger capacity, with a minimum of 300Watts.
  4. Now here’s the one that made me nervous recently. As soon as I turn on or off the monitor, on a black screen appears a solid-green fire-shaped flare that slowly disappears at the center. I thought at first that it was an electric fault of cables, but I checked it and it wasn’t. Then I thought, maybe anytime now if I keep it turned on, it would blow a smoke (well, like the incident in the school last time while on a MPU defense, haha) and would be on fire. Then, I formulate a theory (since I don’t know what was the cause of it and where it did go wrong), I needed to replace the monitor (um, is it on the tube?), and put the system on a cooler part of the house.

The system also needs cleaning! Haha. That’s all for now…

Merry Christmas!

Hi everybody. Happy Holiday!

I think I wanted to migrate to blogger for a meantime. Kasi I’m practicing blogging at the NEXT LEVEL - Blog Podcasting. Podcasting, according to Wikipedia: Podcasting is a term used to describe a group of technologies for distributing audio or video programs over the Internet using a publisher/subscriber model.

Refer to this site for more detailed information about Podcasting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcast.

Well, to understand Blog Podcasting (as I had understand it too), a blog podcaster produces/creates contents in a form of audio or video and blog it to a host. Then Podcast users uses aggregators or subscribes to a feed provided by a podcast host, downloads the content and play it to any audio or video players. Special file converter is used to convert .mp3 files to a podcast file in able for the subscribers to play it on their IPODs. It is different from live streaming since podcasts are downloaded before they were played. But optionally, you can stream it if your internet service is capable of doing it better, and if the host provides it.

Some hosts even offers Radio Podcasts - producing their own online radio.

For now, I am still had it under experiment. Haha. I’ll give a more detailed explanation on how I did produce a Podcast, soon. Happy Holiday!
