Pinay is crawling

Maybe you’ve noticed but Pinay.org is crawling this days this is because I switched DSL provider (actually same provider different services they said a better speed) to avail their VoIP service and of course, to save money but I ended up frustrated and causes lots of trouble and wasted time talking to the ISP tech support which by the way not as technical as I expect, maybe they should think of outsourcing their tech support to not India but Philippines.

Last night I noticed that my server (it’s an IBM xSeries 340 dual P4) run out of space that’s why it’s sending an error message when you open the gallery, the good thing I still have an extra 4Gig on my other drive which I forgot to include in the fstab. So, I made changes to the /etc/fstab created a sym link to point to that extra space, restart the fs deamon and now I have a an extra 4gig space but I this might run out too, so I guess I need to get another SCSI HD which BTW can be hotplug.
Anyway, I might move this site to a “real” hosting company so I don’t have to worry about the speed,bandwidth, security and connectivity problems but Im still going to host all my photo’s in-house using different domain name though.

Homesick? Try Google Earth

When was the last time you went home? Miss mo na ba ang pinas? You should try the new version of Google Earth can be downloaded here. I really like this new version because of a clear satelite scan where you could actually go from different major cities in the Philippines, just like riding in a low flying airplane. Oh try na!
