Everything is now available online. so here are the latest trends in the web development world

I. There are 13 Useful Scripts that you should know

Talking about social bookmarking script, it is very useful in case you will start your code from scratch and just by passing CMS. Most of the websites now want to upgrade their static or limited featured website to something into social bookmarking website, in this feature more people will visit to their website because of active participation and more communication, plus a community will be built.

The Star rating system, I guess this would add convenient to the visitors or members to rate the article , picture, and videos in just one click without loading. This system is higly appreciated by users.

Ajaxplorer. This would be awesome, I remember one of my classmate who wants to pursue a web OS but failed to proposed it as our thesis because the rule that time must create a system that implements the system analysis and Design.

Last month was a long month for me since there are lot events transpires, Moreover here are the following events: ,

• System Proposal Defense- read here

• Students Day- last February 13-14,2009. As a SSG officer as usual I was again charged to set up the SSG attendance system, yet I relished it (love what you do). I really enjoy the Battle of the bands it somewhat unveils who are the UCIans are peculiarly the songs (most of them are composed songs), the audience and the production of course brought to you by the UIC Executive spearheaded by our President Neil Capricho. But calamitously , I lost my wallet and it caused me super broke on the following days.:(

• IT Research Presentation – read here
• Job Seeking – too early right? I’ve been to job interviews and one of the interviewe I undergone through was a foreign technopreneur (nosebleed), exams objective test (basics of web development) and actual program of PHP/Mysql, the AWS test? People who pass the AWS are really damn genius people and submitting a resume to IT companies, by the way thanks to him (uuyyy!) he let me copied his resume template.
• Visited the DabaGNU meeting -I got star struck to the famous Open source gurus here in the Mindanao, they are really the certified IT geek here in our place, they almost know what is latest and they grasp one another, I was like the person who doesn’t speak their language.
• and Night Outs – never be voided and with them:

Last February 20, 2009 as part of the IT Olympiads 2009 was the Student Researches Presentation prepared by the PSITE XI, CDITE XI and CHED XI.

Yeah! Now I really done it! Installing Ubuntu to my laptop for second time and this time, it mean so much to me.. lol

I have an essential reason why I decided to install Ubuntu to my PC, it is because of VIRUS yeah! I don’t care if this a free or proprietary as long as it’s cater my needs. No matter how updated your anti virus is, still, spy wares and other suspicious scripts invaded my operating system, it’s Window XP i am talking about. You will just be shocked that your task manager suddenly disabled, the RUN becomes invisible and a very irritating sudden restart (grrrr). So I finally decided to use Linux since it’s an operating system that is free of virus.

You might thought that linux is hard to configure, you’re wrong! The Ubuntu 8.10 is the most user friendly OS I ever tried, it’ like a combination of the positive side of windows and mac in one interface. It’s so fast! although you will first get annoyed with package installation and terminal commands but in the long run, you will get use to it, and much prefer this way than the click next next finsh.

My most favorite feature of this Ubuntu is the Appearance, since the video card of my laptop is built in, it automatically detect by the OS and I used the extra visual effects that provides more aesthetically pleasing set of effects.COOOLLL!

I really really recommend this Operating System to all! it’s clean, its faster and virus free!

By the way, Ubuntu 8.10 is really good for new user, try it!

Finally! Last February 4, 2009, All UIC IT 4A conducted their ASD presentation defense with 7 groups namely (in order of presentation):

1. Team Glamorous (Maricel Tan, Lloyd Gaanan, Jesus Luna)

Blogging is really my tool of expression since 2006 . And now 2008 will end and this will be my last post for 2008. Remember my 2006 and 2007 New Year posts?

My 2008 summary of events and activities that took place in my life.

Let me start of in January- who would forget the month they first bought their very own laptop using their own money. Yeah! The month I bought my Toshiba L200 A410 Laptop aka “baby”. Hehehehe.

January- March, these months are the last three months of being an ITE President. In that position I really experienced the most complicated, independent and hard to handle of my life. I experienced to have an enemies, false accusations and even gossips. But all throughout I still managed to stand firm although I cried but thank God there are my friends that always there for me.

April- May – My birthday I celebrated at our office and at church, our outing at Samal Canibad with my friends in which I, Harvey, Brylle and IC celebrated our birthday. And then these 2 months were my on the job training experiences that says to me “This would be the industry I will be dealing with after school”  , working in a off sourcing company I should say is different  from the others, not to mention the 24 hours open office. It also great working with an professional IT people the SD peeps especially to our senior programmer, the technical support guys who taught us the TRUE networking that must be learned , the HR girls for being suplada all the way (good job!).Also I continue my CCNA course.

June- start of our class and start of my work as a UIC SSG PIO Main also start of our system proposal development. I don’t want to mention the senior uniform chronicle.

June- October – in short the 1^st semester, school, blogging, family, officer, online life. No more no less I think. Oh! Most exciting part was the Intramurals. The 11^th consecutive year’s champion, the Engineering didn’t partake the event, I sympathize these students they want to play but unfortunately they can’t. And in the end of the event at last for the first time, the ITE program proclaimed as the overall Champion. At the end of the semester, me and my classmates went to Samal Fernandez Resort to chill! Yeah!
