2009 Review

As we celebrate Christmas this coming midnight I can't help but reminisce the past five years of my life. Most of the time it was lonely and pressure due to the nature of my job. The past two years was really really tough as I was at the middle of completing my project. All I long for that time was to finish the job and go home and live happily ever after. I used to think that during the first six months I could easily handle all the possible problems that I would encounter but I was wrong. I almost died that time but somehow I manage to survive.

It was the best experience that I ever had and very much happy to live the day to share my stories.

Now, that it is over I am moving to the next challenge which is the internet era. Software as a service. Recently last December 3-4 we manage to reach the top four candidates on DevCon(Developers Connect) it was a whole new experience and I was pretty much ready from stage one to the finals.

Although my ultimate goal is not yet achieve but still I am hoping for early next year I could launch the product.

Overall, the year 2009 was great and the future of 2010 is coming. I know it will be different and I hope that my preparation will be enough to gain opportunities or to experience the worse things that would happen.

May the spirit of Christmas this year be the source of light, hope and strength to face the new journey in our life.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Merry Christmas too my dearest Mark. Yes, as we journey through life we encounter the joys and pains/difficulties for that mattter. The essence of all of life's events and journey lie in our being able to look deeply into them to be able to understand and get the meaning of our life's shadow and light. Never give up and keep on trusting! Cheers and know you are most loved! Tita

Apple's Edge Over Microsoft?

In the world of IT, models created by business empires will dictate the future of their products. Microsoft is using the component model as the key to win customers and Apple is using the end-to-end model. Microsoft Windows platform crushed Apple's Macintosh platform the day Microsoft release Windows 98 and pirates come out in the open and dominate every stall in our local mall and computer shops. iPod maybe the best and coolest mp3 player that I have ever seen but I still don't think that Apple will dominate the cell phone era for this place belongs to Asia particularly Nokia and Sony Ericson. I don't know why Walter Mossberg thinks US company will always dominate the world when in fact there is another company that belongs to the world and its called Open Source. I think he is dead wrong with his perception. Without a doubt nobody comes close to iPod in the field of mp3 player however, with the release of Sony Ericson latest cell phone such as W900i.

High Grounds Cafe - Best Internet Cafe in the Philippines

I was looking for a nice place to chill last Monday to unwind my thoughts and enjoy with my family. I heard about the latest Internet Cafe just open 3 months ago and I decided to check it out. I have seen a lot of Internet Cafe but nothing comes close to this shop. Everything was simply high end from its ambiance, food and computers. It was simply the best place for people who want to collaborate and enjoy together.

John Gokongwei Speech before Ateneo 2004 Graduates

I wish I were one of you today, instead of a 77-year-old man, giving a speech you will probably forget when you wake up from your hangover tomorrow. You may be surprised I feel this way. Many of you are feeling fearful and apprehensive about your future. You are thinking that, perhaps, your Ateneo diploma will not mean a whole lot in the future in a country with too many problems. And you are probably right. You are thinking that our country is slipping-no, sliding. Again, you may be right. Twenty years ago, we were at par with countries like Thailand,Malaysia, and Singapore. Today, we are left way behind. You know the facts. Twenty years ago, the per capita income of the Filipino was 1,000 US dollars. Today, it's 1,100 dollars. That's a growth of only ten percent in twenty years.
