Apple iPhone 4 now available in the Philippines

Globe Telecoms announced on Friday, September 24, that iPhone 4 is now available in the Philippines.

The Apple iPhone 4 is the 4th generation of the iPhone series, and has also been launched recently in China.

As claimed by Apple on their website, it is a result of three years experience of designing and creating phones that will truly satisfy their customers.

With so many new features, Apple iPhone 4 have detailed explanation of each of them that they expect to impress the Filipino customers.

The first new feature that seems to be noticeable is Retina Display, wherein the pixel density is so high; the human eye is not able to distinguish individual pixels.

The 960-by-640 backlit LCD display results in a super crisp text in web pages, and email, which is now considered as the highest resolution display ever built into a phone.

In addition, the Retina Display promises four times the contrast ratio of previous models, so whites will be brighter, blacks will be darker.

Another iPhone 4 feature that can be useful to Filipinos is the Face Time, in which users can be able to make video calling.

With just a tap on a button, one can provide a real-time smile to their relatives abroad.

This iPhone 4 to iPhone 4 feature is also said to be possible to new iPod touch over Wi-Fi.

Apple also said that iPhone 4 will also use its new operating system called iOS 4, which can make users do a ‘multi-tasking.’ This is because of the Apple A4 chip Processor, Apple said.

One can now run his favorite third-party apps, and switch between them instantly, without slowing down the performance of the foreground app.

This means that he can listen to audio from compatible third-party apps while checking email, playing games, surfing the web, or performing other tasks.

Apple also proudly announced that iPhone 4 is the world’s thinnest smartphone, with a mere 9.3 millimeters thickness; while the unit is situated between two glossy panels of aluminosilicate glass.

According to them, this is the same type of glass used in the windshields of helicopters and high-speed trains.

Globe Telecom also announced that on September 26, 2010, they will host an exclusive launch event, which will be held at the Makati Shangri-la and New World Hotels in Metro Manila.

This will be for the first customers who registered online at the Globe website.

Glee Season 2 Audition: Listen lyrics sung by Charice Pempengco

Pinay International singing sensation Charice Pempengco will be a special guest in Glee Season 2 Episode 1: Audition, where she plays as Sunshine Corazon and sang the song Listen.

Now, it's your time to listen to her very powerful but charming voice as she sings 'Listen', along with the lyrics.

Listen was originally sang by Beyonce.

Listen to the song here in my heart
A melody I start but can't complete
Listen to the sound from deep within
It's only beginning to find release

Oh, the time has come for my dreams to be heard
They will not be pushed aside and turned
Into your own all cause you won't listen

Listen, I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home in my own home
And I've tried and tried to say what's on mind
You should have known
Oh, now I'm done believing you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what you made of me
I followed the voice you gave to me
But now I've gotta find my own

You should have listened
There is someone here inside
Someone I thought had died so long ago

Oh, I'm screamin out and my dreams will be heard
They will not be pushed aside on words
Into your own all 'cause you won't listen

Listen, I am alone at a crossroads
I'm not at home in my own home
And I've tried and tried to say what's on mind
You should have known
Oh, now I'm done believin you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what you made of me
I followed the voice you gave to me
But now I've gotta find my own

I don't know where I belong
But I'll be moving on
If you don't
If you won't

Listen to the song here in my heart
A melody I start but I will complete
Oh oh, now I'm done believing you
You don't know what I'm feeling
I'm more than what you made of me
I followed the voice you think you gave to me
But now I've gotta find my own, my own

Congratulations to Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs 2010 winners

My mind tells me not to make this post since it is almost a week late, but my heart cannot resist doing so.

Anyway, one year has passed away but the memories of 2009 are still fresh; as my Father Blogger dot Com was chosen as among the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs of 2009.

This year, another batch of interesting blogs came in and I cannot help but to congratulate the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs of 2010 winners.


1.0 When in Manila

2.0 NomNom Club

3.0 Facebuko
Ganda Ever So Much!

4.0 Kusina Maria
Project 52 Weeks

5.0 Fat Girl No More
Music Vlog
The Creative Dork

6.0 The Thirsty Blogger

7.0 Foodie Manila

8.0 Jay.eLx

9.0 Paolodome Edge HD

10.0 Get Prettified!

Sad to say, I was not available to vote since I am busy now with BatangasToday.

But as I checked the blogs of the winners one by one, I should say that all of them deserve the recognition.

As for The Thirsty Blogger, I was surprise to know that Fitz Villafuerte loves drinking. I am a big fan of his Ready to be Rich since 2007.

I met him a couple of times before on blogging events and I knew from the start that he can influence people through blogging.

But anyway, I am glad Ms. Janette Toral still continues to support fellow Pinoys in the field of blogging, and I know she is looking forward for 2011 this early.

And to all winners, again my congratulations and I hope you stay long in this field.

Mabuhay ang Pinoy bloggers!

New Twitter allows users to add photos and video

The new Twitter has just been launched its new service, where users can add photos and video on their Twitter page, as being published at CNN Money.on Tuesday.

Twitter, with 145 million users said the new features are only a part of their project to make the 140-character microblogging service be more user-friendly.

"It's faster, it's easier and it's a richer experience," Evan Williams, Twitter co-founder and CEO, said at the company's San Francisco headquarters.

"Simple things that are cryptic on Twitter today become a lot clearer." He added.

The new Twitter now features an extended sidebar that shows related content when you click on a specific Tweet.

This eventually helps users to save time and effort to toggle back and forth between different Web pages.

The company joined with 16 media providers, including Flickr and YouTube, to now allow users embed pictures and playable videos directly on Twitter.com.



The new Twitter.com also includes the ability to scroll down the page without having to press a "more" button.

But so far, only a few selected groups of users, including members of the media who attended the launch event in San Francisco were given access to the new Twitter.com immediately.

Twitter’s top executive however, could not say yet as to when it will be available to all.

Willie Revillame now preparing for a TV noontime show at ABC5?

There are now rumors that controversial TV host Willie Revillame is preparing for a TV noontime show at ABC5, according to PEP.ph.

According to a reliable source from the supposed upcoming TV show, some of the members of the defunct ABS CBN show Wowowee have been doing dance rehearsals more than a week now.

The group, composed of more than 30 staff and dancers resigned from Wowowee in support for Willie when the show was replaced by Pilipinas Win na Win; in which Willie immediately accepted.

While there was no formal report that Willie Revillame is being seen during the practice, a source told PEP that the TV host is there almost everyday.

The source also said that the said TV show will be co-produced by Revillame and Viva Entertainment, a production outfit by Mr. Vic del Rosario, which is reportedly close to the TV host.

If the spreading rumors will be true, the upcoming noontime TV show of Willie may not be live, and the title will be ‘Wiling-Willie Kami!’

Meanwhile, the legal battle between Willie Revillame and his former employer ABS CBN still continues.

It can be remembered that the TV host filed a P11.5-million case against ABS-CBN after his show Wowowee was removed on-air last July, 2010.

ABS CBN on the other hand, said that Willie violated ‘behavioral provisions’ and that he have no legal rights to end his contract on his own.
