Transferring Domains to Different Registrar?


Okay, I had been planning of transferring my domain to another registrar, but I don't have in depth knowledge on how to do it especially with the transfer fees it's attached to. Above is the pricing list provided by one of the few popular domain registrars, Namecheap.com, and I just don't know if my assumptions were correct with regards to it.

I would like to ask each any everyone of you if your really can spare a word, please leave a comment below to help me out on deciding whether it's best to just renew my domain or transfer it.



Anyway, I clicked on the .info transfer pricing as seen above and I was trying to understand whether the said price is fixed up to the tenth year or it's just a sugar-coated price that if I ended up transferring my domain I would end up paying much than if I had just renewed it. So here are my questions to all knowledgeable people out there with regards to this issue, first if I transfer my domain for 10 years will I only pay the said allotted amount of not less than ten dollars? Second will that mean that my domain will be registered as well in ICANN for ten years?

If you can spare some insight about this issue, I really would appreciate it. Read More......

My N series Cellphone Under Nokia Care

After tireless efforts on waiting to have a network signal for my cellphone, I had lost my patience and went directly to the nearest Nokia Customer Care shop to let them fix my buggy phone. Of course, I'm expecting that it wouldn't be fixed that easily at a short span of time without prior notice, and I was right with my assumption. However, what's so shocking to see was that it's not only me that rushed there to have their cellphones be sorted out but a lot of people ranging from different social statuses, and classes. All of us clamored on that little space they had provided, for them to fix our phones. It's more like a local bank where a lot of people waited to be served.

Can you imagine waiting after a 30 customers just for you to inquire your cellphone problem to Nokia experts? Well yes, it's true. When I went there at Nokia Customer Care shop located at SM North EDSA, they are serving already customer number 1114, and when I took my number at their podium dispenser I'm customer 1140, what a discrepancy right? But I think waiting is worth it, since my phone can be fixed already with it's existing problems.

When I already took my turn to be served by the experts from Nokia, they asked for my personal information and the problem that currently persists within my cellphone unit, and I replied with my litany of rants. She diligently listened and explained to me that for them to fix my phone I need to left the phone with their care, which I complied. Hence, I need to wait for 2-3 weeks for my cellphone to be fully functional. Now, I'm cellphone less again. Hay, I wish they call me as soon as it's already fixed.

Another N series Flaw

This was the second problem that I had encountered using the Nokia N series phone. So probably you will know how this post would go - a rant post so bear with it.

Nokia is one of the famous brands available over the market for selling different kinds of cellphone handsets, and since it's popular a lot of people uses this brand even those within the poverty line in this country. What's so special with Nokia? It's user-friendly. You don't need any formal education on how to let the thing function properly. It's easy to use and efficient. Upon opening your handset box you can instantly set it up and text your way to your friends or even call the people you wished to call to brag about your new phone. It's that simple to use. However, if you encounter bugs within the system itself (like me) then it is another story.

You can see that I had stated that this would be the second problem that I had encountered while using Nokia. The first problem can be found here for you to read. But to recapitulate the first problem that I had encountered I can say that I had the difficulty on connecting the said the device to the computer using the USB cable provided, with which up to now wasn't even resolved by either the manufacturer, Nokia, or any other people (i.e. technicians) out there.
Now for the second time, Nokia disappoints me for their buggy handset included in their N series collection. I never thought that I'm going to be a victim again of this still unresolved problem dating back from 2006! All over the world people are making rants about this problem that I had now encountered - losing their signal!

Try to Google "N series no signal" any N series, be it N70, N80, N90, blah, blah, blah, it will bring you result on people complaining about losing their signal, people complaining that they cannot make and receive calls, and people ranting that they can't receive any text messages at all.

What the Nokia personnels in forums suggest again is to go to the nearest Nokia service center so as to diagnose the existing buggy problem within your handset. They won't provide patch update, and so on. They will just suggest that you go to let your phone be diagnose and if problems exists they would replace your phone with the same model. Yet there is no assurance that it's bug free! Other's will suggest that you force GSM to provide you with signal but this is 0% success rate at all, and not of help to those who are seeking answers.

And now I am one of them, ranting over the sudden lost of signal on the phone that I am using. My carrier provider, SMART, does in fact have a strong signal within our household and the place that I currently stays with but why in the world does my handset doesn't have signal. I had tried my SIM on my mother's phone and it does it fact have signal, but when I use my mother's SIM on my phone, BAM!, same results no signal! Now what the hell am I going to do with this phone, it seems like a paper weight to me now, no use at all, since I can't text my friends.

Anyway, I'm going to turn the buggy phone off to let it cool down for the meantime, maybe it might work, maybe not, but I'm going to still research if there is a possible solution over the internet that I had not read, and try it out or I'm just going to head out directly to Nokia wireless center for professional help.

Nokia N Series Serious Flaw!

I had heard before from my best friend that the Nokia N series distributed over the market had serious flaws and bugs associated to it that’s why he didn’t acquired one of its releases, instead he chose another brand of cell phone, Sony Ericsson. I actually didn’t believe him for what he had said about the serious flaws he had pointed out to me because I had my trust and confidence on the company itself, and the products that they launch over the market. Besides, Nokia is a user-friendly phone and only Nokia had a shop dedicated to spare parts if ever your phone goes haywire in this country. But now, I think, my best friend was right with regards to his assumption that the said N series had major flaws and bugs included in it, because I myself experienced it with my own phone right at my very nose.

Look who’s eating the words they’d said, right?

I had doubt my best friend and now what I’m suffering for one of those problems he had pointed out against the phone that I had selected. Okay, my parents selected for me, but hey, it’s still user-friendly, classy, functional and hold-up friendly too.

But what problem did I experience while using one of the Nokia N series? I think to give you a little idea, if you’re also using the N series, head over to the Nokia forums or even some online internet forums that discusses in their board how to fix problems associated to the type of cell phone you’re using, the same problem that I experienced is always present there, and the same quasi-solution is always provided there.

Anyway, my cell phone problem occurred after 3 months of using it. My cell phone was not detected by the computer (Windows XP Sp2 operating system) while it was plugged in using the free USB cord the cell phone model provided. I thought it was just the USB slot that had the problem because a few of the USB slots in the computer had been faulty to a point, inactive, hence I used the remaining USB slots but the results stay the same. The USB device is not recognizable by the Windows XP operating system no matter what I do, even if I restarted the computer and restarted and re-plugged the cell phone the same thing occurs; the device is not recognizable.

I thought I only had this weird problem, but my brother who uses the same phone as I also experiences the same problem that I had been facing. To be honest, he was the first one to experience the difficulty in synchronizing the N series cell phone’s content from the phone and memory card to the computer itself. Hence, I looked at possible explanations and possible answers to the root cause of the said problem, but all I get was canned responses from different persons that:

  1. You needed to uninstall every associated Nokia products installed in your computer.

  2. Reboot your computer and your phone.

  3. Download the latest Nokia PC Suite provided in their website.

  4. Install the following update, and never plug your cell phone unit until you’re asked to do so.

  5. Reboot, and plug your cell phone unit.

  6. If problem persists go to the nearest Nokia Care Center to let your phone be checked by a specialist if ever there is a damaged internal part in your phone.


So I did, steps 1-5 and I was successful as of the moment, and my N series phone was detected by the computer itself. Hence I was able to get the necessary file that I created within the phone’s memory card. I had plugged the same phone on another computer to test whether it’s still detectable by Windows and so far it was still detectable, not until I managed to plug the phone of my brother that the same symptom arose again.

Maybe, I should do the last and remaining step to go to Nokia care center to let their technicians delve into the matter at hand. But I doubt whether they will really fix it, maybe they’ll just look at it and state that there isn’t any problem with the unit and charge me with the consultation fee. Or worst they will replace the phone and if ever I had arrived at home the same scenario might exist. I just don’t know whether this last option is best, since after the months that I had used this phone I had never dropped it once, hence I think they will never replace anything inside it. Anyway, I’m just going to try again the same steps from 1-5 and maybe it will work again, and I’m crossing my fingers to this.

PBB Teen Edition Plus Housemate, Josef Elizalde Scandal?!



I don't understand why some people try to ruin people's reputation by placing malicious anchor text on a certain video. A concrete example is the above video of ex-teen PBB (Pinoy Big Brother) Teen Edition Plus Housemate, Josef Elizalde, where in he and his friends were making a dare on drinking tequila with a twist.

I don't know why this video surfaced on the internet and what its purpose would be. I don't even personally know the persons involved in this video, hence I don't know how and what to comment. It's Josef and his friends' video, and Josef himself, should actually make a statement on why this has surfaced over the internet. If this is for publicity stint then it had served its purpose, it went over the internet and over board to national television.

If indeed Josef Elizalde is a straight-tripper or preferably as what most people commented in Youtube had said that he is a homosexual, then it is his prerogative and not for viewers to actually shout out loud.

Now I think I made my point. You decide whether this video served as a simple dare of getting a lemon on a tequila or an intimate kiss of two males. Read More......

Site forwards to Blogmad?!

Has my site been redirecting to blogmad.net? If it is. I'm so sorry for it. I haven't seen that coming, more so, I don't know how did that happen. Anyway, I already had found out the source of the problem, and it was the faulty script provided by blogmad.net to me before. But with it having the ability to forward a blogger hosted web page is such insane.

Anyway, I had removed the faulty script and had claimed again my rights to this site. However, I don't know if they still have a chance on taking over my site. But if ever that happened again for sure I will make it a point to remove my affiliation from them.

By the way, the said site for web traffic exchange seems defunct now. Is it? But if they still went live online again, I'm going to file a complaint to them to let them know that they are trying to screw people and it's users by taking over their site or sites by redirecting them to the blogmad site itself.

Sam Milby and Piolo Pascual withdraws the libel case

Piolo Pascual Sam Milby


Badmouthing and backstabbing people, be it someone you barely knew, is the worst emotional violation that someone could inflict on somebody, hence if given the chance to rectify the situation legally why would someone blew it away? This is my own opinion on the Sam Milby, Piolo Pascual and Lolit Solis controversy that spanned for more than a month now. It's such a shame that both actors had agreed not to continue the libel case filed against the latter person after retracting her malicious statement for her article, because who would teach her a lesson if she's not even punished for what she had done.

Below is the SMS or text message of Ms. Dylim stating that Lolit Solis had signed the statement of retraction for her published malicious article.

Text message ni Ms. Dylim:

"Gud pm. Just came fr mla city hall. Ms. Lolit sgd her statement of retraction— There s no factual basis for my article, wch came out on oct 12 2007. I am extremely sori for dragging d names of sam en piolo. SAM, PIOLO, I AM SORI FOR D HURT EN EMBARASMENT I CAUSED. Separate undertaking, no mor talkng abt sam en piolo or ths incident. With this, piolo and sam sgd an afidavit of desistance. [Good evening. Just came from Manila City Hall. Ms. Lolit signed her Statement of Retraction—There is no factual basis for my article, which came out on October 12, 2007. I am extremely sorry for dragging the names of Sam and Piolo. Sam, Piolo, I am sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I caused. Separate undertaking, no more talking about Sam and Piolo or this incident. With this, Piolo and Sam signed an Affidavit of Desistance.]"


To be honest, I definitely don't agree that they (Sam and Piolo) actually discontinue their case because the latter person would definitely repeat what she had caused - to tarnish people's reputation. Besides even if she retracted the said published statement, the thing is, it still had reached the public and their reputations are clearly stained by malice, and not a single retraction could ever change the fact that the said statement had caused people to doubt their sexuality more so to typecast them as closet homosexuals.
