Clipmarks: How to Share Information to People Who Have No Time

Here’s a nifty way to share info from the web, by showing exact snippets of it (the most important parts), instead of just linking to them like we usually do here in blogs. Sometimes, we just want to share pieces, or perhaps quote the most compelling sections of whatever we stumble upon, and not have [...]

Common Errors in English Usage

We Filipinos are quick to spot language bloopers and easily crack up whenever these blunders are made, either by family, or friend, but most ecstatically by a foe. I remember sharing Erap text jokes. And vividly remember a Ms. Philippines candidate say “unexpectively” in her interview. Melanie Marquez’s “long-legged legs” is a favorite, too. Then [...]

Resource and Tutorials for Web Designers and Developers

There’s this post on avanoo saying, The Science is Clear, Marriage Should be Eradicated. It’s been getting a lot of feedback, both on the affirmative and negative, all seemingly correct and presenting valid and strong arguments. I’m tempted to copy and paste my own reply to the article’s proposition. Indulge me.

Until about 11:00 o’clock, they hog the set, switching from one channel to another and often delaying meal time as dinner is usually prepared WHILE watching these Tagalog and Korean “teleseryes”. How I wish I could cook properly. I [...]
