www.godaddy.com - very slow response?
Have you tried to access GoDaddy.com lately? Seems like it’s extremely slow.
Maybe I should opt to namecheap.com instead.
www.myspace.com - MySpace Down? MySpace Login / Sign In Failed
What’s wrong with MySpace? What happened to MySpace? I heard that everybody is complaining that MySpace is not working.
People now rely too much with social networking. They’re part of it and obviously can’t live without MySpace.
I prefer Facebook than MySpace. And yeah, referring to Alexa, Facebook beat MySpace in term of traffic.
HP to Acquire EDS for $13.9 Billion vs Microsoft-Yahoo!
May 13, 2008 — HP today announced that it has signed a definitive merger agreement to purchase EDS at a price of $25.00 per share, or an enterprise value of approximately $13.9 billion.
Read the official news here.
Several friends of mine working in these two companies. Mostly on the enterprise side such as networking, servers and storage.
IT has become so fragile and we don’t know what will happen in the future. Lay-offs for sure.
That’s the similarities with Yahoo! staff. Being taken over with Microsoft only creates uncertainties.
YouTube Down?
Yes, YouTube.com is unreachable right now. Anybody having a same problem?

WAG200G - Linksys Wireless-G ADSL Home Gateway
This is an ADSL2+ Modem, Internet-sharing Router, 4-Port Switch and Wireless-G Access Point in one box.
Yes, that means I don’t have to use separate Aztech modem for Streamyx dialing and WRT54G v5 for the routing purposes.
I’m still thinking should I consider upgrading to WAG200G from my old WRT54G v5 which having a firmware problem lately?
I will rather play look-and-see first. As for the last firmware upgrade to 1.02.5, it’s shows a stability which is good for me.
I’ll keep on monitoring this.
Revert Back from DD-WRT to Linksys Official Firmware for WRT54G v5.0 Router

From GoTalkMobile to eBuddy Mobile Messenger (BETA)
eBuddy Mobile Messenger has a very nice interface. Plus you could aso add your Yahoo! and MSN. Since then, I left GoTalkMobile.
I don’t even need a Blackberry now and I can still online 24/7.
