Finally, iPhone 3G will be launched in the Philippines on August 21, Thursday, 10pm at Ayala Tower One and Exchange Plaza in Makati City. Economically speaking, it may be not a proper timing with the present crisis we have, we can never tell. Have fun to those who will attend the launching party.

I’ve devoted my time migrating glitchline to wordpress. I could say that its ok at the moment although I still have things to do on that blog. Anyway, WordPress 2.6.1 is released, it has minor bug fixes but we can still enjoy wordpress 2.6 if we want.
2.6.1 offers several improvements for international users. Styling of the admin for right-to-left languages is much improved thanks to the efforts of the Farsi and Hebrew translation teams, and a mysterious gettext bug caused by certain PHP configurations is now fixed. For IIS users, 2.6.1 fixes several permalink problems. Image insertion problems in the Press This feature experienced by IE users are also fixed. Of note to everyone is a fix for a performance bug in the admin where those with a lot of plugins would experience slowness on some pages. -taken here.
I’m actually waiting for another updated wordpress version to test a plugin I installed two weeks ago. The said plugin, WordPress Automatic Upgrade 1.2.1 had various negative feedbacks but it is now fix on their latest version 1.2.1 released last July 18. It did wonders on upgrading my two blogs, hassle free.
Instead of seeing a display note “WordPress 2.6.1 is available! Please update now” on your wp admin panel, another bar below will display “Click Here to Automatically Upgrade WordPress to latest Version.” Its easy, no need to be a geek to upgrade a wordpress blog. Just click and follow the prompt, download database (for back up) if you want. WordPress Automatic Upgrade 1.3 will be coming soon especially now, a perfect combination for latest release of wordpress 2.6.1. Now, my addiction to upgrading my wordpress version is healed. LOL

As of this time, my personal blog is still down. I can’t update this blog for a while until its running smoothly. To my co-recipro droppers, glitchline still continued to drop on your sites. And to other glitchline droppers such as my favorites and yesterday’s droppers, I did reciprocate.
I hope everything will be okay soon.
PDF to Microsoft Word conversion? The easiest way is to open the PDF file, click edit, choose select all, copy then paste it to blank word document. How about batch conversion? Will you choose to do the repetitive steps? Count me out. The best way is to use conversion software like Some PDF To Word Converter I stumbled. A shareware that is powerful enough for batch conversion is great.
I’ve tried and tested SomePDF2Word software. Well, it is user friendly and converts PDF files easily. As I’ve said before, PDF files is the most popular and common ebook format but not easy to read on symbian mobile phones. The best way is to convert the PDF to other format and convert it to mobile ebook format you want. That depends on the ebook conversion tool you have.

G-Blogs is where I started blogging in 2004, it was a moblog or mobile blog. Due to many glitch of the old g-blogs system, there are rampant hacking of blogs just to prove their worth. Was it worth it? That’s a long story but without g-blogs, I maybe not here blogging. I still love g-blogs even if I did got tired of the old system. If not, I will not be blogging about it now.
Just a short recap of the old system. Old g-blogs can be access to any built in browsers before, it was possible to moblog using third party browser such as Opera, Opera Mini, Netfront etc. Legitimate bloggers can download images, audios, videos from other moblogs for Php 5 per file. I did forgot the rates already. To some, they can upload and download other files such as mobile applications, virus, ebooks and other unsupported files for FREE.
Those were the happy days until the Globe Telecoms numerously changed the system from time to time and our moblogs are always unavailable. Good thing that they decided to use wordpress to their recently launched g-blogs.
What’s with g-blogs 2.0?
G-Blogs 2.0 is built to give you a refreshing experience in personal blogging. Powered by the powerful open blogging platform, WordPress MU, G-Blogs 2.0 is equipped with new and exciting features that enhance the way your life’s moments with your friends online.
This is a giant step forward on blogging considering that I, myself experienced blogging at g-Blogs before. Indeed a wise decision but the normal mobloggers are waiting to access the site using their built-in browsers just like the old g-blog days. Globe Telecoms temporarily disabled G-Blogs’ SMS/MMS and WAP blogging service, as they prepare for the enhancements which they will be launching soon.
G-Blogs 2.0 is still in BETA – fresh out of the clinic after a thorough beauty makeover. This means you may still see a few bumps, scars, unwanted moles or hairs – things you would want us to tweak a bit, or probably even get rid of, here and there. If ever you do encounter any, do send us a note at gtg-blogs@globetel.com.ph and we’ll gladly tidy them up for you.
After recovering my old g-blog, I access the page for my old entries retrieval. They said wait for 24 hours to export my blog blog to new blog. That was 4 days ago and still nothing happened. Since I already knew wordpress, I hope they add more widgets (and plugin if possible), add page feature and more template choices. As of now, there are only two available template.
G-Blogs is built on WordPress MU. Should you need an extra know-how on advanced coding and features, feel free to visit their FAQ section.Technically, no need to hack for free download anymore just like the old days… The site can be access using Opera using Inet connection on mobile.
