For years, since the late 1990s, I’ve always had Linux on my desktop and laptops. It was both a choice and a necessity for me because I found it more apt for what I did for a living, i.e., development and systems administration. My whole life revolved around Linux because it allowed me to have [...]

December Reunions and Me Getting Married. Not.
December will always be a special month for me, not because it’s Christmas, but because this is the month when I get to see more of the friends I haven’t been spending much time with. It’s reunion month after all. Friends from all over the world will almost always make sure that they are home [...]
Eating My Words
“Ah Faustus, now hast thou but one bare hour to live, then thou must be damned perpetually.” Could it be that bad? About a year ago, I made a decision to leave the life I’ve lived through in the past 8 years, that is, IT. Although technically, I still am in IT, I can say [...]
Novare Life
My life about half a year ago is nothing compared to what I’m in right now. Although I made it clear when I left Wolfpac that I would be quitting IT, I still am in IT. But it’s all a different thing. What I miss most in Wolfpac was the constant piss-in-your-pants experience. It has [...]
It’s About Time. Goodbye IT, Hello Photography.
After nearly six years, I’ve finally come to my senses and decided to live my life “normally.” Yes, I’ve decided to leave WolfPac Mobile and yesterday, was my last day. It took a lot of guts for me to leave it all behind (my constant source of stress, and yet my comfort zone as well), [...]

- Clouds Over The Makati City Hall (Time Lapse)
I was hoping the color of light would change dramatically but it didnt. However, subtle movement (cars, clouds) can be noticed if you look closely. :)
(more..) - A Time Lapse Experiment
I’ve had my camera, a D300, for years now and it has this feature to shoot photos at pre-defined intervals. I’m practically hitting myself in the head for not trying this early on, but it’s never too late to give it a shot. So here’s my initial attempt at Time Lapse Photography. Camera was mounted on [...]
(more..) - Black & White Film Processing At Home
With all the resources out there, this should quickly get you into film processing quickly. This is meant as a beginner’s How-To in developing/processing your Black and White film without the need of a darkroom. But, it should, by no means be considered as a one-top-shop for the topic. If you want to advance further or get more technical, tons of resources are available out there for googling.

Slowing Down and Reuniting with Film
In this day and age of digital cameras and warp-speed workflows, why would anyone want to go film? That’s a question that has been asked of me these past few weeks. I don’t know, maybe because after a stressful year at work and the associated warp-speed timelines, I really DO want to SLOW down and [...]

( list everything! )Top Reasons Why You Might Want To Get That Backup Harddisk Already
Regardless of the interests that you have, it’s most likely that you have already accumulated huge amounts of data across the years. However you put it, these data is a big part of your life already. From your college papers, your business presentations, to your accounting and tax sheets, from your technical whitepapers to personnel [...]
Deliciously del.icio.us!
For anyone who uses, at the least, two computers (e.g. a home PC and an office laptop), maintaining a common set of bookmarks can be very tedious. When a change is made on one computer, I used to export bookmarks from it and import into the other, and vice-versa, in an almost vicious cycle. It [...]

( list everything! )Reminiscing My Not-So-Indiana Jones Moments on the Roofs of Trains
A friend, Estan Cabigas recently shared an interesting story about the PNR (Philippine National Railways) Bicol Express that reminded me of a trip I have yet to make. I’ve been planning to do that some time next year. I’m still hoping there’s a cargo hold somewhere that would allow me to bring my Vespa with [...]
On The Importance of Hiring the Right People
It can never be underscored enough how important it is to get the right people for your organization and keep them there. This is an ongoing challenge that a lot of companies face regardless of industry. A lot are stuggling with it and a lot got burnt by it. A lot has already spoken and [...]
