When you go the official website of Apple, you will see a photo of Steve Jobs on the homepage. The man who gave us our iPods, our iMacs, iPads and iPhones is gone.

Like what I tweeted hours ago:

Now I know what the “S” stands for in the iPhone 4S. It’s “Steve”. RIP Steve Jobs.

He didn’t get to launch iPhone 5. If there will be one.

“The Wall Street Journal reports on a study into productivity and efficiency in the workplace, which found that people who are given a break to surf the web return to their work with ‘lower levels of mental exhaustion, boredom and higher levels of engagement.’ Researchers tested against two other groups; one continued working, and one was given a break that did not involve web browsing. They concluded that ‘browsing the Internet serves an important restorative function.’ In contrast, dealing with personal email was ‘particularly distracting.’ In the end, the researchers recommended that employers loosen restrictions on employee web access.”

This backs up a similar study out of Australia from a couple years ago.

They have been featured in our local channels, like ABS-CBN and its US counterpart, TFC. I wish The Ellen Show will feature them.

Watch the video after the jump!

T-Mobile is a genius for putting up the real life version of Angry Birds. It is complete with real birds catapulting away to those pigs that really explodes! I do love playing Angry Birds. There was a time when I could not sleep because I just had to finish all the games in one stage! I wanted all the golden eggs. I want to make each level into 3 stars. That was how obsessed I was!

I wonder if they can do a live version of Plants VS Zombies. Hmm…

I love her videos. This particular one just made me laugh! But it makes sense, what she said in the video about avoiding people that you don’t want to talk to. I have what they call, The Chronic Bitchface, so people tend to avoid talking to me, but sometimes, it can’t be helped. Some people just feel the need to be up in my face and talk. So JennaMarbles’ video should be taken seriously. It will work!

I sent them at least two tickets, yes, they responded after a few hours. Their LIVE chat is never online. I responded to their tickets so many times with questions as to when the server will be fixed. There was also a time that their server failed and all our websites disappeared. They had no backups to help us restore everything.

Their first email has this explanation:

We are ware of this issue and for the past 4 hours we’ve been working for the server problem. The main reason it was all down due to kernel panic. We are still updating it up to this moment. We really apologize for this issue. (view screenshot)

A certain David Velasco promised a credit discount to my next invoice, which I don’t expect to come anymore, since their website is already down since March 8. I have sent many emails that I didn’t care about a refund, but, they don’t respond to the emails anymore.

TracSpace is really the worst web hosting ever! I wish the owner of this service gets bitten by karma BIG TIME.

Congratulations Matt!
