I have no idea what is wrong with my broadband internet connection AGAIN! Half the web is dead to me right now, meaning I cannot access half the websites, including most of my self-hosted blogs. I have no idea if this is a connection problem or a server problem because other sites that I visit regularly are also inaccessible. I tell you, this just pisses me off because it wastes a lot of my time trying to trouble shoot, testing with Celcom 3G and what not.

What irks me more is that sometimes when I could not access some websites from my computer with Streamyx and these sites could be opened from my mobile device with Celcom 3G so I switch my connection on my computer so that I could work.

However, once I switched over, my Celcom 3G connection does not connect from my computer! Really pissed off!

I have to say that although Streamyx could be shitty sometimes, their customer service is very good and I pity the people who have to field calls from disgruntled customers. I called them up at 11pm and 4am and they entertained my grouses. A report has been lodged. Let’s hope that they settle this before the two working days timeline they gave me!

If you are a frequent user of Picasa, I am sure you noticed the change. To me, I find the new, revamped Picasa loads faster than before. I am not sure if the change did that or if it’s because of other elements like my computer or broadband speed.

Also, I love the larger thumbnail view. It used to be, and wasted a lot of my time, that I had to click on each image just to view it, or squint and try to make out what that image is just so that I could avoid an extra click.

I wish that they would allow us to somehow change our file name in Picasa itself, instead of having to delete the image and upload one again with the new name. If this feature is already in place, I did not notice it yet.

Also, I hate it that each time I uploaded a wrong image to my Blogger blog, I have to access that image from Picasa to delete it. I wish that Blogger/Picasa would make it easier for us to access our blog images from Blogger itself so that we could delete or edit those images after uploading to Blogger.

I agreed to help a friend prepare for the wedding later this month. It is not that I know how to do it but because she needed assistance because of time constraints. I don’t even know why this couple decided on a wedding at the last minute but since it is a happy occasion, I did not deny her.

However, even if I know nothing about wedding preparations and stuff like that, I was able to look up information and read on the Dos and Don’ts online. I find it a little amusing that here I am, actually enjoying the “work”. I think it’s because I am spending money that’s not my own! Haha!

If you are preparing a wedding, whether your own or helping out a bride, you must check out The Wedding Channel. I absolutely love this website because it is so comprehensive it covers everything! You need not even look at another wedding website!

I log in to my Gmail account every day yet I did not notice how my Gmail storage space has grown. I now have more than 7000MB of space in each account!

Actually, I don’t even know if I ever will limit up my storage because I don’t email that much but there are some email that I do not delete because I need to keep for record’s sake and wish that I could somehow store them “as is” somewhere safe. No, I do not trust any email client, you see, so I do hope that I could move some important email away.

Actually, at this point, the storage is unimportant already. I just hope that they will increase our file size limit! If only we could send files as large as 100MB, at least, it would be great. Then we could email video clips directly instead of uploading them to YouTube or MegaUpload. Waste of time only, right?
