Yes, I am obsessed with this gadget. As a multi-tasker who does a lot of different jobs and a girl interested in multiple hobbies, I think the Asus Eee PC T101 MT will increase my productivity. My fellow WordCamp Ph 2010 organizers and I had a meeting last weekend, and I kept on telling them and myself how easier it would be for us to coordinate if my netbook's screen could swivel like this... And imagine how much easier it would be for me to take down notes during a press conference, event, or while making a script for the TV show I am working for if I can do this: And oh, the orientation of the display can be turned vertical for easy reading of eBooks. And imagine how much easier it is to play games (*ehem*PLANTS vs ZOMBIES*ehem*) using the stylus instead of the mouse??? Hehe! Here's a video of more photos of the Asus Eee PC T101 MT: You agree this will make the Diyosa work (and play) better, yes? I hope you do coz I am definitely targetting this baby. ;-)

Target Lock: Asus Eee PC T101 Multi-Touch
I'm not exactly the biggest technophile chick. I am big (LOL!) but I don't know a lot of the technical (aka nosebleed) aspects of gadgets and technology. But when I saw a multi-touch screen on a television show I wanted one. LIKE RIGHT AWAY! So I was happy, happy, happy when I heard from Asus Ph announced that this will be available in the Philippines SOON: It's the Asus Eee PC T101 Multi-Touch. AMAAAAZING?! Right?! Who else wants one? Rico aka Mr Technogra already had a good look at one of Asus' Eee Pads. Here are the specs and some photos and Rico's
The Science of Making Glow Sticks
One of the things that make party-ing and tgsh-tgsh-ing more interesting are the glow sticks. So here's a little something for all yah party peeps. Kidding! I'm just a geek and nerd who found this video of how to make glowsticks very interesting... It's not exactly for bored people at home coz it's much to technical and the ingredients are not accessible or cheap. But the science is lurve. :P I miss nerd-ing out with my friends!!!
Criminal Minds
One of the shows I already like is Criminal Minds, and I have been watching more of it on the local Fox Channel. I love most crime shows like CSI (all three) and Numbers, especially when it offers something different. Criminal Minds is different in that it focuses on the criminal rather than the crime committed. The show centers on the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI, led by Agent Hotch player by Thomas Gibson. The storylines delve into the psyche, behavior, and profile of the criminals and use the information to track down the criminal. It also stars Joe Mantegna, Paget Brewster, and the yummy Shemar Moore. My favorite characters are uber nerd Dr Reid and the geek hacker Penelope Garcia. The interactions among the different members of the unit is also very interesting. Makes them... human sometimes. It's an interesting show that keeps me company almost everyday. Good thing Criminal Minds will be back this September with their sixth season.

Planters’ Bank SME Series: Ethics Adding Values to Your Business
Last July 13, 2010, I was able to attend the Planters' Bank SME Speakers Series held at the Apo View Hotel here in Davao City. And I learned a lot from it. The talk was about Ethics: Adding Values to Your Business with Francis J. Kong as the featured speaker. Mr. Kong is an entrepreneur, writer, tv show host, and professional public speaker. He gave a very rousing and inspiring talk on ethics, emphasizing that there is no such thing as "business ethics," only ethics. Kong asserted that the way one lives his life is reflected on how he does business. Thus, he conducts himself ethically inside and outside of his business. He also prefers to work with and deal with ethical people who are honest and disciplined inside and and outside of the office. Kong was not just knowledgeable about business, he was a damn good speaker. He knew what to say and how it say it effectively. His topic was serious but his talk was light-hearted and funny. His jokes were relevant and didn't lessen the impact of his points. Rather, his jokes and asides highlighted his very serious points. The talk was definitely very useful and practical…
