Trying to Close the eGap

For the longest time, I've been looking for an internet service where I can automatically update all of my online profiles without needing to go into each of them. Even if I do have the time and memory to do them all, even with cut-and-paste, what are the chances I still make a mistake, right?

I have two solutions for you:
1. Ping.fm: It's a site that updates vitually every social networking site. Friendster, Multiply, MySpace, Facebook. It even has MSN Messenger (now, Windows Live), YM, AIM...
2. Multiply now has a way of cross-posting. Luckily, I post all of my blogs in Blogger.

Hehehehehe...

Wishlist... Revisited

I took a look at my posts and found out that my Wishlist needs to be updated.

1. An Apple Airport Extreme. (para maging Wireless hotspot bahay ko... pang Wii, PSP, at Laptops ni Jay at ni Chez)
2. An Apple iPod Classic, 160GB
3. Midi to USB Cable (uy.. mura lang ito)
4. An XBOX 360 Elite Edition Console
5. A second (3rd or even 4th) Samsung Syncmaster 225BW LCD Monitor
6. A wireless mighty mouse (if it's compatible with Windows)

So here it is:

1. An Apple Airport Extreme. (para maging Wireless hotspot bahay ko... pang Wii, PSP, at Laptops ni Jay at ni Chez)
NEW 2. An Apple iPod Classic, 120GB (turns out they faced out the 160GB)
3. Midi to USB Cable (uy.. mura lang ito) <- I already have it!!!!!!
4. An XBOX 360 Elite Edition Console
5. A second (3rd or even 4th) Samsung Syncmaster 225BW LCD Monitor
6. A wireless mighty mouse (if it's compatible with Windows) <- I'm happy with my mouse now.
NEW 6. A Canon EOS 450D (Or Rebel XSi).

Again, calling out those who have secret crushes on me. Sana maprioritize yung number 6.

Pothograpi

For some weird reason, I suddenly became interested in Photography (not the friendster type, but the sorta, kinda, pro type). Because of that, I started to look around and for most of my friends who are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO into it. They all say get a Canon EOS.

When Jay, Chezka's fiance, started, he got himself the 350D or the 400D. I forgot however, it was still an EOS and it took nothing but great photos.

Doi of The Doisterboy Experience started with an EOS (I think) and is now using a 35D? (I'm not sure, though). Turns out that the naming scheme of Canon is, the lesser the numbers, the "pro-er" it becomes. SO the hierarchy goes like this: XXXD>XXD>XD. Basta, gets nyo?

Anyway, everyday, I keep on going online to see when I can get the best deals possible. Jay says, the best place to buy a camera here is in Hidalgo. (A street in Manila known for it's camera "stuff") But before I decide to steal money off a bank and head off to Hidalgo, I decided to look onlin for possibly better deals and this is what I got.

Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (EUR$469.99 - Php29,448.81)
Canon EOS 450D 18-55mm IS + 55-250mm IS Twin Kit (EUR£649.99 - Php 40,727.32)
Canon EOS 450D (Camera Only) (HK$5,680.00 - Php 34,508.32)
Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (HK$6,480.00 - Php 39,368.65)
Canon EOS 450D EF-S 18-55IS Kit (US$799.99 - Php 37,680.28)

Bang for buck, the best place to get my dream camera is by getting it in the UK. Luckily I have a cousin who lives in London. I just wonder how much shipping is. Or how much additional luggage is if they are coming to Chezka's wedding. Same as the HJ and US prices.

Hmmmmmm....

Paksyet!!

Last June 15, 2006, I started an excel file where I put in all my earnings and expenses so that I can easily track and budget my money. Now, every sweldo, I open the file, input how much I earned and it auto-computes my expenses, tithes, etc. I can't live without it.

I was just finished paying my last bills before declaring broke until next day when I checked my expense chart.
2006 - approx. 220,000.00 (mid year)
2007 - approx. 380,000.00
running 2008 - approx. 230,000.00

and where is it now? Gone!!!! By buying small trinkets, car accessories, little things that are gone now.

I'm such a loser. Imagine how much I could have now if I saved P1000 per payday. O sige, kahit P500 per payday. Syet.

I'm depressed.
