Just less than two hours from now, another much awaited fight between two great fighters, dubbed as the “Lethal Combination“, Manny Pacquiao will battle it out with the Mexican - American David Diaz.

If Pacquiao wins this match then it will go down in the history books as he will be the first Asian to hold four world crowns in four weight division as well the first Filipino to reign in the 135-pound class.

Preliminary fights will start at 8PM EST / 5PM PST (8AM PH time) and the main match should be starting after 2 hours or so. I’ll be watching it live again for FREE as usual.

First of all, I’m sorry for the lack of updates and for not able to reply back to comments left on my blog. As much as I wanted to, my online activity is limited since my main rig was out of commission and my Internet connection was also down (most of the time) thanks to my no good cable Internet provider - Destiny Cable.

I moved back to my original broadband provider Bayan DSL, which I’m happy that they activated my DSL line within just 2 days upon submitting my request. So far, I’m satisfied with the reliability I’m getting through them unlike when I was still using Destiny’s crap connection. Sure, I’ll miss out the faster net connection but who would want a fast Internet connection if its down most of the time? I’m sure no one would right?

This is the first time that I’m blogging and I’m not in front on my desktop PC (which rarely happens). I’m currently in Laguna right now (Calamba, Laguna to be specific) on a yearly summer family reunion. For readers not familiar with it, Laguna is a province located southeast of Metro Manila.

I’m using Smart’s 3G connection through my Nokia N95 connected to my laptop. Download speed is pretty decent at 384kbps though I can’t get a good VOIP call. It’s understandable since latency problem is common on a wireless connection and can be a big hindrance to VOIP and data streaming.

Demonoid is back after almost 6 months of being offline because of a problem which started June of last year . Last February, reports about the Demonoid tracker being moved to Ukraine created speculations about the return of the popular private BitTorrent tracker.

With its resurrection, Deimos, the former administrator, left the Demonoid staff because of person reasons.

Welcome back!

Since a few months ago, Deimos, the site administrator, lacks the necessary time to take care of the website, because of personal matters he’s been needing to attend to. For this reason, he has decided to leave the site staff.

Before leaving, he assigned a new site administrator from among his friends to take care of the site. The old moderator team will continue helping with the site, unchanged. We will try to keep running everything just as it always has been.

The trackers and website seem to be working properly, and should any issues arise, they will be taken care of as soon as possible. The site might be going on and offline over the next days as we work out any problems.

Welcome back, and enjoy your stay!

One of the things you need to consider to blog effectively is Technorati. Specifically, you need to know how to make it work to your advantage especially if you have plans on monetizing your blog.

At first, I was confused on how the system works and my ranking was stuck for months. Now its slowly going down (the lower the number is better) and I hope the trend will continue.

I was at the mall this afternoon, trying to cool myself from this hot humid weather then I decided to drop by at Datablitz to check out some new game titles. Lo and behold, Command & Conquer 3: Kane’s Wrath is already on their shelves ready for my picking. As an avid RTS fan like myself, I quickly asked the saleslady if I can have one and lucky me they still have one on stock.
