The top 2 reasons why you should use Chrome browser and leave Internet Explorer asap



Whenever i see some of my non-geek friends juggling thru multiple tabs and windows of the Internet Explorer browser, i'd pause and take the time to impart them the danger of still using IE and force 'em to download the Google Chrome Browser while giving 'em the sidelights of its lucrativity and usefulness.

If you're not using Google Chrome browser, and still wallowing with IE or Firefox or Opera (or prolly Safari for the Mac enthusiasts), you're missing a lot of fun and strategic net surfing, not to mention speed and neatness.

Since when did i start using Chrome? I saw this actually when i was still an RS at Dell back in 2008, with my agent Bob fiddling the tabs, i took interest intuit and since then, Google Chrome has been my default browser.

The top 2 reasons why Chrome browser is inseparable to me whenever i surf the web?

1. Speed
- Trust me, you can really feel the difference whenever  Facebook loads up in chrome as compared when being loaded to IE
- The address bar or the Omnibox was designed as a search box. I don't need to type google.com and enter my search keyword in the box anymore. All i gotta do is type the keyword i wanna seach in the address bar, Hit enter; and presto! the search results are up!!!
- the drag and drop feature is way better than any other browser



2. Minimalist Style
- If you're a sucker of simplicity and clutterless browser, then go and download chrome's minimalist theme.
- The default theme is already pleasing to the eyes.
- What makes me love further about this ingenuity of Google is its neatness and ease of use when it comes to settings and options. I can't help but compare to IE's maze of Internet Options; but with Chrome, it's pretty neat and easy to navigate.






So? you might be asking, if the feat - IN Private browsing is available?  Oh Yeah! it's called Incognito mode which i blogged before. When it comes to security, this is way at par to other browsers out there.  Surely, i've never been attacked with pop-ups and malware and spyware.

Till now, i just couldn't resist promoting this beautiful browser, it's so useful and down-to-earth. 
In full effect, i'm thinking a portmanteau of deep obsessiveness and chrome, that'd be Chromniac. Lol

Reface Facebook using your iPhone



Okay, i'm not a big fan of Mark Zuck and Steve Jobs is figuratively litotes in nature. I blogged last time that there are two ways in refacing your FB profile which was a huge success cuz that entry made it to the top of Popular Post on this blog.

What i wanna share now (which could give wide-eyed smiles to iPhone users) is the handy app that you can use in refacing your Facebook.

Goto the APP STORE on your phone and type "Facebook Custom"





After downloading the app, just walk in thru the steps and you should be able to achieve your desired appearance of your Facebook Profile.

This is neat for those who rely most on their iPhones, twiddling through your laptop and desktop sometimes can give nausea.

Thanks to Dundee for sharing this free app.

Divide me not!


A man's character may be learned from the adjectives which he habitually uses in conversation. 









do not tremble when the strong aims to crush
or weaken thy knees when it attacks
do not lose hope upon the valleys of fear
or faint upon the scythes of wrath

be compassionate to those of less
and be patient to those of rue
forget their wisdom clue
and bury their rudeness without due

do not symphatize...
it's better to emphatize
be a an ear to listen
of worries that needeth spoken

heed those who are weary
to orphans you must show mercy
wipe away the tears of grief
& strengthen the world, void of peace

care to smile to strangers
you might not know how they feel
you might have lifted some of their sorrows
in their delight of grin despite in a burrow

fear no more
where the end is near
at long last you will see
the promise of eternity






January is almost over, yeeha!!! thoughts of endless hope keeps running through my head, i can't help but stand still. The journey must go on. ;)

Brushes of experience


All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers. 






twisting ecstacy
regalia of boon
waking the dormant
ice-clothed pawn

simmering hotness
allowing to erupt
disconnected thoughts
in a gentle abrupt

brewing aroma
of delicacies on fire
craving for nothing
in the barbless wire

restless libido
containing thy mind
closing innuendo
in a refined halo

jekyll and hyde
who shall appear
in falseness of truth
or the glory of wrath

epitaph carved
the smile of an inkling
relieved to the deathbed
in rising from within

Oracle bequeathed
nowhere to run
where? for refuge
in solitary? or Rune?

clasping hands
sweat unbound
dripping, flowing
down and round

sparks and shocks
numbing nerves
of cracking rapture
to doom awaits.



when things aren't just the way going you want 'em to, it seems that it ends up more complication. better go with the flow, forget to counter, just see through it.
