I hope that someone from Ovation Production (or Mr. Renen de Guia, himself) visits the local blogdom and reads this post of mine. Will do anything just to get a backstage pass for two (or even one, just for me alon — sorry Rose) for Swing Out Sister’s (SOS) concert come 07 April 2008 at the Big Dome.

You can leave a message thru the comment feature of this post, or email me robert.reyes@gmail.com or SMS 0916.320.1513. Thank you!

Ever experienced going to a website and your browser will display: Page cannot be displayed?

The computer unit that we share for internet surfing at home uses Smart Broadband. It is not once that I have to call their Customer Service Hotline just to ask them to refresh their DNS Servers, because we are trying to access a website, which we firmly know that is online (because TurfSitePH.net is the host) and does exist, but gets the “Page cannot be displayed” error over and over again. It only means one thing, the DNS Server of my ISP is broken.

Now, if you do not want to spend wasting your time calling your ISP just to request them to refresh their DNS servers (based on my experience, they will act on it after 48 hours), you may want to use OpenDNS instead? OpenDNS will let you use their DNS Servers, instead of the ones provided by your ISP. In this way, we can be assured that we are browsing the latest version of the website, and it also gives you a safeguard against phishers and scammers, as they try to block websites that fall to these categories when you surf to them.
