Everybody is doing the facebook thing nowadays and its not perfect. There are several Facebook clients available but they are not as smashing as Fishbowl and the Microsoft Silverlight Facebook client. The Fishbowl is not as gorgeous as the Silverlight app but its Taylor Swift cute. Fishbowl offers Facebook chat though(the Silverlight app does not). Both apps are useful and will serve as a standalone client for Facebook without the need for a web browser. The Silverlight app loads faster than the Fishbowl.

A lot of us are complaining on how our ISP sucks. Shifting on another network is like guesswork because all of us have complains about our respective ISPs. I was reading the newspaper this morning and read about a partnership between San Miguel Corporation and QTel Group and it is called Wi-Tribe. Wi-Tribe is also available in other countries. The company promises to deliver 4G broadband to the country and all the 4G related services. I just hope it does not bring all the hassles and weaknesses of wired and wireless broadband services.

I know Apple just released the Ipad. I know its a sure fire kindle killer but would you pay more than $500 for an oversized Ipod touch? I wont. I have been browsing around and stumbled upon the Archos 9 and I would love to have one. Why? because it runs Windows 7 and not Iphone OS. I would have loved the Ipad if it came with OSX and not some portable OS. I am sure the Archos 9 is not designed to compete against the Ipad but is priced at around $500 which is almost the same amount as an Ipad. Continue reading

Christopher Breen of Macworld.com listed 8 qualities that would make you very unpopular on the Internet. I’ll share them with you since I’ve encountered one,
1. Troll Let’s start with the most obvious. Take up an unreasonably opposing point of view simply to get a rise out of people. This is most effective when you visit a site devoted to Subject A and then state that just about everything related to that subject stinks. For example, visit a Nikon forum and slam its cameras in favor of Canon. Trail over to the Huffington Post and gush over Sarah Palin’s first literary effort. Drop by our sister publication PC World’s site and let them know just how much you love Snow Leopard and despise Windows. Whether your comments are based in fact or not, they’re unlikely to be welcomed.
