The great thing about having a blog, if you are consistent poster, is that you can look back at stuff that happened to you during a years time… of course some things which weren’t posted I added here too.

1. Visited tagaytay with my wife - never brought her there when we were still dating because I broke up with my ex of 6 1/2 years right after I brought her there… call it a stupid superstition…

2. Bought a PDA - finally added some structure to my life

3. Programmed my first PHP site for public consumption - the first… not exactly the greatest… but definitely not the last…

4. Pistons Eliminate Pacers in the Play off’s and Reggie Miller Retires - so long old 31… you were my most favorite player in the NBA

5. Left a dream job to go back to the homeland to take care of my mother and take a shot at being an entrepreneur - that basically summed up all I had to say about that.

6. Compressed National Gas Bus plying EDSA - hope for an oil-import dependent nation.

According to Netcraft the total no. of domains registered in December is 1M less as compared with November. This is attributed to Zipa (a hosting and colocation service) losing 1 Million users after their .name promo expired after the 60 days period… what I don’t see however is the effect of Belgium giving the .be domain extension for free…

And for me, this is just the market correcting itself, what’s 1 M lost against 17.5 M gained in a 10 month span? It’s still 16.5M over… :D
