The name leaves it wide open for sick rhymes, but the Asus Eee is quite the pint-sized performer. It is a superduperultraportable running on Asus’s modified Linux OS. The keyboard is almost too tiny to be useful; but with a modicum of hand-eye retraining, it works. The Asus Eee has a 7-inch screen, bordered by …
So Spotlight couldn’t find results. It creeped me out. I searched “the” and it said “no results found.” The. What creeped me out further was Finder not finding anything. This was like all the radio stations suddenly ceasing broadcast, the dead blankness on people’s faces right before the missiles launch themselves into the sky, my …
I don’t think all of these will stay with me their entire lives. I’m already thinking of selling a couple. (Shhhh. Don’t tell the pens yet. I don’t want them feeling awkward.) These aren’t all the pens I own, but it’s most of them. The pen case is sturdy, and the elastic bands are wide …

quite upset that his prize (a home theater system from Solar Network’s Ad Congress raffle) isn’t available yet. At the agency, we’re used to handling promotion logistics. Having winners wait for their prizes, even though they are gratis, stretches a promise to the breaking point. I do hope he gets his flatscreen TV and DVD …
Autumn Flow Perfect for today’s weather. Thanks to Flickr’s aremac. Blogged with Flock
I’ve received several hits because of “Trillanes whatever,” so thanks to Joel, here is a (semi) transcript of that conversation. Trillanes: As soldiers, we will face this. Ces Drilon: So how are you going to face this? Trillanes: Whatever.
Two days ago, Chiqui, Mary and I met the Y&R regional director for digital at the Peninsula lobby. We had tea and Coke Light, then strolled inside to the Old Manila restaurant for dinner. It was a lively dinner, punctuated by phone calls from clients, capped by optimistic plans. The lobby is now tank food. …
