I had just successfully upgraded the blog engine to WordPress 2.5, and I should say the wait is really worth it! I love the new administration interface, very refreshing to the eyes. And the newest feature of one-click upgrades for my plugins, it’s very very kewl! I was able to upgrade 10 plugins in under two minutes. Isn’t that amazing?

Is Domain Cloaking Possible with cPanel?
By default, cPanel does not have a built-in function or tool that will let you cloak a domain name or website. But first, what is domain name cloaking?
Let’s say, you bought a domain name: juandelacruz.com and you want users to see your Friendster (or Multiply) profile site when they point their web browsers to your domain. One option you have is to use cPanel’s built-in Redirects tool. But what’s the down side? When people point their web browsers to http://www.juandelacruz.com, they shall be redirected to something like http://www.friendster.com/juandelacruz or http://juandelacruz.multiply.com — with the redirected URL shown on the web browser’s address bar. If you do not want this to happen, a work-around is to cloak your domain name.
Basically, the trick behind cloaking is to create a framed webpage (covering the entire width of the user’s web browser) that bears the redirected website. If you’re just too busy to study the FRAMES in HTML, you may want to use http://script-smart.com/resources/hide-affiliate-link/online-link-cloaker.php instead.

It’s Maundy Thursday
Today is Maundy Thursday, a time to reflect on the past year and what will our future be. It’s a holiday, but why am I on duty?! The last time I was on duty during the Holy Week was five years ago. Today, I have to assist in facilitating the Boeing 747-400 Aircraft Door Operations Training for our staff in two sessions: one in the morning and the other one in the afternoon. Not so bad — even if I am on duty — as after the training, I will have another certification on aircraft doors operation of the B747-400.
Then later, after the after training session, Rose and I will have our Visita Iglesia and perhaps attend the Washing of the Feet tonight at SIP.
FREE PLDT Landline Plus SIMs
The Captain’s Log (http://jepoy.bengero.com) is running a contest, and they (he) are (is) giving-away two (02) PLDT Landline Plus Sim cards to lucky bloggers. Mechanics of this contest can be found here.
If you haven’t heard about it yet, PLDT recently launched their wireless landline solution — that uses a SIM card. What does this mean? It simply means that the wireless landline service (from PLDT) can be used in any GSM phone unit that is locked or unlocked to Smart Communications. Kewl, isn’t it?

The (Brand New) Car That Blogging Will Buy
I guess you had heard stories of fellow Pinoy bloggers who were able to buy a used car (just like Abe of yugatech.com) and a brand new house & lot (like Jedi of tsikot.com), thanks to their blogs (and advertisers, i.e. Google AdSense + banner links).
How about a Pinoy that was able to buy a brand new car through blogging?
I will still have to wait for a couple of weeks for my Chery QQ3 (in blue, just like the one in the picture below) to arrive, since my favorite color is currently out-of-stock (available now are models in green & yellow; the red one’s are reserved for Coca-Cola Philippines — around 200++ units).
Blogging is truly great!
