  •    Adsense Privacy Policy Deadline Today   

    Thanks to Plurk and Marhgil Macuha because if not for those two, I wouldn’t know that TODAY is the deadline for a new requirement of Google Adsense:

    In preparation for interest-based advertising, please ensure that your site’s privacy policy is up to date by April 8, 2009. Visitation information from publisher sites will be used to create user interest categories, delivering more relevant ads and improving monetization for publishers over time. Learn more…

    I need not say more, JUST UPDATE YOUR SITE with PRIVACY POLICY NOW!

    You could take a look at JenSense for some examples.

  •    Voice and Video Chat on Gmail   

    I guess a voice and video solves all the problem for people who communicates via Gmail. My father and I use this because my dad doesn’t know how to use anything but Gmail.

    It is an answered prayer. Check: Voice and Video Chat on Gmail.

    Now communicating via Gmail would be better than ever, and I know Google is making things better.

  •    WordPress 2.7 Beta   

    Testing Wordpress 2.7 Beta. This is the version that I have been waiting for. GREAT!

    What are you waiting for? Update your WordPress now!

    So far, I haven’t encountered any error using this version. But since it is still in Beta, I wouldn’t expect it to run perfectly. Even a non Beta version could have bugs. If ever you encounter one, just report it so that they would check on it and develop a better and safer version.

    I updated almost all my blogs. It looks and feels great!

  •    New Open-Source Web Browser: Google Chrome   

    Everyone seems to be talking about this new Google Browser – Google Chrome. As Google had announced it on their blog, that it will be released for Beta September 2, 2008 (Tuesday). Philippine time seems to be advanced, so need to wait for their Tuesday.

    In the meantime, while we are waiting for the launch, here is a comic book to explain more about Google Chrome.

    It seems, Google is slowly making its way to be the virtual service that anyone would ever need. Plus open-source … FREE FREE FREE is always nice!

    Will it kill Firefox, Internet Explorer and all those other web browsers? We don’t know yet. But time will tell, and that time is near. So, let us keep track on its update and reviews once it is out.

    If this works well, Google will surely conquer the virtual world.

  •    Blogger Arrested Over a Leak of Guns N’ Roses Songs   

    I have stumbled upon this Yahoo news, stating that a Blogger was arrested for posting songs on his blog. He was charged for “copyright-infringement.”

    I have been online too long and I know that a lot of people are doing this.

    This poor guy is just a victim of a mere bad luck.

    He is currently looking for lawyers and I hope he would find one that would defend him properly.

    Now, let this be a lesson for us all. That we should be careful on what we post. Even though a lot of bloggers have been doing things illegally. Let us do it on the legal way. Because we don’t know when Bad Luck would strike.
