Tablet does storytelling »

a couple more years and we'd be normally reading books on a tablet to put children to sleep -- maybe the tablet can just do the storytelling

Lady Gaga endorses Google Chrome

Posted on May 23 2011 by Gerry Comments: None yet Filed under: Chrome, Google, Lady Gaga, Blogging

Lady Gaga is probably one of the most, if not the most, expressive single I’ve ever got to watch on video and TV. She sings great music and I particularly love the way she expresses herself in her music. Her spirit and passion to music is really amazing. Looks like she is now endorsing the Google Chrome web browser. You can watch the YouTube video below.

Cool video!

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides opening tomorrow

Posted on May 19 2011 by Gerry Comments: None yet Filed under: Movie, Pirates of the Carribean, Blogging

I love watching the sequels of the movie Pirates of the Caribbean starred by Johnny Depp. The adventurous pirate portrayed in movie from Disney pictures has a way of making me entertained. The 4th sequel is entitled “On Stranger Tides” and revolves around the adventure (or should I say misadventure) of Captain Jack Sparrow (played by Johnny Depp) of finding the fountain of youth and the old pirate folklore of mermaids. Of course the saga wouldn’t be complete without Captain’s Sparrow’s encounter with Blackbeard the Pirate.

You can watch the movie trailers here.

Turning down a cool million dollars

Posted on Jul 4 2010 by iGerry Comments: None yet Filed under: Clay Mathematics Institute, Grigori Perelman, mathematics, Blogging

It’s not everyday that someone wins a prize of one million dollars. A cool million can buy a lot of things. That amount is enough to fund a small startup in the Philippines. It’s even enough money to buy a decent house, everything in it, a car and retire comfortably from the interest of what would be left. But I guess, conviction/beliefs are more important than fame and fortune.

Haiti needs your help »

You're probably aware by now about the destructive 7.0 earthquake that Haiti has experienced. The place is in total chaos and people over Haiti needs our help. Please extend help in any way you can. Just to give you an idea of how much destruction the earthquake has caused to the people of Haiti, here are some photos I came across at boston.com. I've posted a couple of them here.

There are several ways of donating money to the Haiti victims. If you have PayPal, you can donate thru this eBay link that has been setup for the purpose. Google has also a dedicated page for the Haiti earthquake victims here. Google has also taken the effort to get a satellite photo of the extent of the Haiti situation. You can download the file and view it using Google Earth from this link. Every amount will go a long way if everyone can spare some money, let's reach out and help out the victims.

2010: Happy New Year to all »

I'm starting off 2010 with several things and having a flu wasn't on my list of desired things. I'm feeling better now and I'm writing my very first post for 2010. First off, I've made some changes to my blog's layout to make it a bit more mobile friendly. As mobile is something I'm very much interested in these days, I've created a WordPress theme just for that. This year, I'm spending a lot more time online focusing on a couple of things -- Web development and mobile. I've put up my site for WordPress and mobile development at Code Stuff. With so much interest in what's currently happening on the mobile industry around the globe, I've put up my own site about the current trends and news of mobile phones going smart. I'd like to call them the Connected Phone. I actually started off with a site called Java Midlet and decided to transition on the more appropriate name -- Connected Phone.
