I previously blogged about GMail’s support. I was so excited. But after trying it out the excitement died down quickly and I went back to the good old web-based GMail interface.
Here’s the lowdown:

At first it was Mariel Rodriguez. Now, it’s Toni Gonzaga.
In the latest episode of Pinoy Big Brother (aired October 18, 2007), “Kuya” traps Toni Gonzaga and announces that she is to be the latest houseguest, much to the chagrin of the poor girl.

National Police chief Director General Avelino Razon Jr on Tuesday said foreign explosives experts who conducted their own investigation into the October 19 blast at Glorietta 2 in Makati City have ruled out any bomb angle behind the incident.
Interviewed on the sidelines of an antiterrorism drill at Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig City, Razon said President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo had been briefed on the reports submitted by the explosives experts from Australia, Israel and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
“Based on the evidence and the facts that were gathered from the scene…edivence shows that it (blast) was an accidental gas explosion,” Razon told reporters.
So if it was a gas leak, what triggered it? What about the traces of RDX? Can a gas leak really cause such a huge explosion? We need answers!!

I’ve just returned from Beijing, where after days of negotiations, I have sold Billion Dollar Wiki for $1 billion - and yes, I’m talking about US dollars.
I have already received a deposit of $100 million, so I know these guys are legitimate.
Let me guess. This “business plan” is similar, if not exactly like, the Million Dollar Wiki. Duh.

An interesting take on Microsoft’s recent purchase of 1.6% of Facebook.
FTA:
Microsoft doesn’t value Facebook at $15 billion. It values 1.6% of Facebook and an expanded and extended ad deal at $240 million. That’s it. You can’t ignore the ad deal and magically come to a $15 billion valuation.
