No More Music Search in Multiply?

When was the last time you used the search function of Multiply? I was surprised today and noticed that the Music item is no longer in the drop-down list of the search function in my Multiply.com account. Seems that the music file downloads at Multiply.com (outside your network) is over.

Now, the work-around:

You may use Google’s Advance Search to look for your favorite music files within Multiply.com. In the Find Results > With All Of The Words field, type the title or artist’s name of the music file you wish to look for. Just add the keywords “music/item” without the quotes. Next, in the Domain field, key-in “multiply.com” so that the search results will be limited to Multiply contents only. Though this work-around may not work 100% all of the time, atleast, we can still search for our favorite MP3 and WMA files in the best social networking site this side of the planet.

Celebrating Five Years Together

More than half a decade ago, I saw this girl sitting in one of the tables at the faculty room of UP Manila’s Department of Physical Science & Mathematics after a meeting with my friends there, her name is Ruby Rose.

Exactly five years ago today, 28 December 2007, we had our very first date: first stop was San Ildefonso Parish Makati to hear mass (what a nice way of doing your first date!), then went to Glorietta 4 dinner after watching a movie. And the rest is history — now to include Robyn Andi Xeon.

Happy anniversary, panget!

Adobe Users Group Philippines (AUGPhil) Year-ender 2007

The Adobe Users Group Philippines (AUGPhil — http://www.augphil.org) concluded Y2007 with a small get-together at McDonald’s Greenbelt (in front of the AIM) tonight. Present were Regnard, Naz, Patrick, and myself (we’re supposed to be 7 based on the online sign-up). Too bad for AUGPhil members who missed the event, as there were more than 18 prizes and give-aways at stake that night, not to mention the grand prize, which is a licensed Adobe software (won by me!).

As a result, everyone went home with at least the following items from Adobe and Apress:

an Adobe t-shirt, a SIM card back-up gadget, a notepad, a computer mirror, a universal USB cellphone charger, a squeeze bottle, and an O’Reilly book (Dreamweaver CS3 and Flash CS3).

Plans for Y2008 was discussed by members present at the event.

Thanks to Adobe for the give-aways and the prize! Thanks to Regnard for organizing the event!

What are you waiting for? Join AUGPhil now!

Merry Christmas, Everyone!

[Review] Dream Journal The Very Best of TrueFaith 1993-2007

The much-awaited compilation album of TrueFaith band is finally out (made available just three days ago). Consist of thirty-four (34) songs in two discs, this album is a must-have for all Faithfools out there.

Included in the album are re-mastered hits like:

(Disc 1) Perfect, Love Stings, Everything She Wore, How Much I Feel, Ambon, Sa Puso Ko, Huwag Nalang Kaya, Muntik Nang Maabot Ang Langit, Shotgun Baby Bang! Bang!, Pure, Kahapon, Silence Of The Heart, Alaala, Baliw, Kundi Rin Lang Ikaw, Bukas Liligaya Din Ako, Hi, Ika’y Mamahalin.
(Disc 2) Enjoy, Alam, Get It On, (Awit Para) Sa Kanya, Kung O.K. Lang Sa Iyo, Minsan (Lang Ako Umibig), Sumasarap Ang Gising, Basta-Basta, Ngumiti Ka Lang, Deadma, Mistake Number 3, Dahil Ikaw, Sayang Ang Lahat,
Cross My Heart, Araw’t Gabi, Isang Pangarap Lamang.

How I wished that they had released a 3 CD compilation instead of 2 only. They missed to include my personal favorites Goodbye, God Bless and Sugar Kisses, but nonetheless, this is an awesome album!

Go, grab your (original) copies now.
