Last week’s trending topics caused a lot of mixed emotions.

LolaTechie, BayanTel’s online viral marketing on their product BayanTel DSL made a lot of Filipino internet users add “her” up on various social networking websites. Most people who have added LolaTechie on Facebook were superpoked by now. :D

Windows 7 Prices was announced. The question of switching to Windows 7 still remains until the official Philippine pricing comes out.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen made the cinemas jam-packed this weekend. In Greenbelt 3, all of the cinemas are showing Transformers. When we checked at Greenbelt 3 cinemas last Friday, last full shows were as late as 11:50pm and 12:55am respectively. This is already expected since it’s the opening weekend.

Will you switch to Windows 7?

Prior to the announcement of Windows 7, most Microsoft Windows users would like to stick to Windows XP because of Windows Vista’s performance. The pricing was just announced and Windows 7 will be available on October 22.

Regular prices are as follows:
Home Premium $199.99
Professional $299.99
Ultimate $319.99

Blogger: Turning 10 on August 10

Blogger.com is turning 10 this coming August 10. :D Blogger is actually the first blogging platform that I’ve used (in 2001). I used it for a couple of years before switching to WordPress. So, if you are currently using Blogger.com, Google wants to hear your say on “What has your blog meant to you?”. You can answer the question by posting first to your blog on Blogger.com and fill out a form here to send the link to your blog post. You will also be asked if it’s okay to share your story with the press.

myPinoy.tv: Philippine Entertainment at your Fingertips
