I have decided to make a 2010 Project 365 in this blog.

The rains and the flooding did a lot of damage during last week’s deluge brought about by typhoon Ondoy.

To those who rely on their computer files for work-related tasks will have a difficult time retrieving their files especially if there have been no back up.

Emails pertaining to work and those coming from relatives who are eagerly awaiting news about the safety of their loved ones should be archived properly like how it is being done through email archiving services come in handy in emergencies like this.

Have you protected your computer files?

I am on the lookout for new cell phones, not that I can afford to buy one right now. I chanced upon the new Nokia X series and I must say the Nokia X6 captured my attention.

The unit may look boxy to others but for me this unit is definitely something I would set my sight at. Full specs can be read here.

Now if only this is affordable, 😀

For busy people and those who are on the go, there are self-service payment counters being offered in some stores. It works like the regular payment counters, with barcode scanners and all that stuff, except there is no one to help you.

Now, this is a good idea just in case you notice the cashier on the counter you lined up seems to be moving slower than usual.

Yes, cities have been espousing a lot of self-service, well, services. I just hope these will not jeopardize the services especially to those who are too lazy to do things better.

Me? I’d rather line up with that oh-so-slow cashier than scan my purchases and consume more time than I intend to spend there.

My son (and my hubby) loves to play PC racing games. Right now, son is beside me playing with Knight Rider race game.

One of the games they enjoy playing with is 18 Wheels of Steel Across America. They get to race across America carrying different kinds of cargo, maneuvering different kinds of streets, and buy truck accessories. Yes, son loves doing the “set-up” in cars and trucks.

The son learned a lot of places when he started playing this game. He even learned calculating distances, knowing when to gas up or not yet and converting miles to kilometers.

I have written in this post about playing Farm Town. I have been at it since June and it took me almost forever to reach level 30. To those in the know, I was able to get my greenhouse and gazebo yesterday, right after I got my new level. Woohoo!

FT (Farm Town) is not just a virtual game of plowing, planting and harvesting crops. Sure, there is also shopping for equipments, buildings and other things necessary to make the farm look real. There are cute animals too and who knows? maybe soon, we might be able to buy cattle supplies for them tee-hee!

I know of people who scoff at us for being happy with FT. I don’t mind, to each his own and frankly, we (my neighbors and I) are not enamored with this person anyway.
