New Clients

By Benj Arriola • Mar 26th, 2005 • Category: Business, Web

Just closed a new hosting deal. Now my priority is to get Martal Exterminators done, start on Home Simon, and work on Graveyard Chef. After desinging graveyard chef, I will train Amor on building sites in full CSS, tableless sites.
Now back to work…

Gerald, ang dilim naman nito. Pero it’s better na meron kesa sa wala.

Looks like fun, kaso wala ako. Anyway… try ko pa din mag habol ng wedding gift ko.



Scientist?

By Benj Arriola • Mar 20th, 2005 • Category: Life, Science, Work

I decided to check out Mt. St. Helen’s current activity and found up-to-date information on the US Geological Survey website. Well this is an active volcano, unlike Pinatubo which was dormant, when it erupted, it was a big one since being dormant, there was a lot of pressure build up inside before it blew up.
Intrigued [...]



Filing Taxes

By Benj Arriola • Mar 18th, 2005 • Category: Social, Work

The first time I needed to pay taxes when I was working for SGS Philippines. I was a quality analyst/chemist there and the HR was pretty cool in handling all the paper work for my taxes, all I needed to do is check it out and sign. I never really understood how to file taxes [...]



Thunderbird

By Benj Arriola • Mar 12th, 2005 • Category: Computers & Gadgets

I was a long time MS Outlook user, not only for email, but for synchronizing with my Palm, where I started with a Palm m100, then cIII and now a Zire 71. I tried StarOffice, and this other one I forgot the name. I was not happy.
My Outlook crashed twice within a week. All emails [...]



New Team on Monday, Logo Approved, Laptop, Work

At work, we are grouped in teams. A designer, a builder, a writer and we do nothing but websites. Starting monday all designers will be on one team, all builders or Production Assistants will be another team and all writers another team too.
I’m not going to comment on this, but I guess the people happy [...]

Hey, email me some pics ok?

This is exactly 1 hour after Mt. St. Helens emitted volcanic ash in the air, 36,000 ft. above sea level.
The most up-to-date site seems to be this site.



What laptop to buy…

By Benj Arriola • Mar 7th, 2005 • Category: Computers & Gadgets, Life

After thinking on my trip to the Philippines…
I thought of buying a laptop. So I can bring my work with me, and even work on the long plane trip. Be more productive on lost time.
But I really do not have much money, the plane ticket is so expensive. I even searched for the best deal [...]



Selling TLDs

By Benj Arriola • Mar 6th, 2005 • Category: Business, Web

I sell TLDs or Top Level Domains.
Domains are nothing but your address that ends in either of the following:
.com
.net
.org
.info
.biz
.name
I have a new web hosting client that has 2 .ws domains and 1 .net. So before his domains expire, I plan to have him transfer to my domain registration company. But I do not sell .ws [...]
