Note: So, I haven’t been really doing that good in my studies because of this, so I have to turn it into something ‘fruitful’ at the very least.
Equipment
One way to earn money is to look into your own equipment. Of course, one should make do with what you have, but improving on something is not a bad idea either, especially if it’ll cost you only a little.
Improving on your own equipment would make you tougher, hence people would take you in on party quests where you get the chance of netting awesome stuff. Plus, you’d probably be able to handle solo quests better, saving you time for other stuff to do. As they say, time is indeed gold.
But how can you go about improving your equipment without costing you that much?
Here’s how:
Use the Galgaron Cube
If you feel that your inventory is getting kind of stuffy with all the seemingly useless gear you get from random monsters, and that the NPCs give you a shitload of work, all for a crappy reward, don’t fret. If anything, you should be happy. You know the saying that nothing really ever goes to waste, as they’re just recycled? While this applies to our souls after death, the same goes in game.
You can combine gears that you’ve picked up so far and turn it into something better by using the Galgaron Cube. You can access the cube by clicking “U”.
3 gears of the same kind, of the same color, and of the same level can be placed in the cube and be combined into something stronger.
I’ll give you an example:
You received a Blue, LV9 pair of gloves from one of your quests. From killing monsters, you received two more LV9 gloves also having crappy specs.
Open up the cube (click U), click the fourth tab, open your inventory (click B), and right click on the three (or you can also drag them to the slots in the cube).
By clicking combine, you will then be treated with a LV9 yellow pair of gloves, complete with better specs.
Got it so far?
Here’s a list of the combinations:
3 Whites = 1 Blue
3 Blues = 1 Yellow
3 Yellows = 1 Gold
Please note that there’s still a fee for the process, which depends on the level and quality of the gears.
Accessories cannot be combined in the cube. Also, please be mindful of the equipment quality. There are ‘Elite’ items out there, which means three elites are needed should you find the need to use it in combining.
So there you have it. You can upgrade stuff via the Galgaron cube for your own use, or to consign (more on this in another post).
If you happen to have read this and you have other questions about the game, feel free to ask by leaving a comment, or by sending a message to YuffieKisaragi in Oriel Server. I’ll be more than welcome to assist you. 🙂

I’ve been playing MMORPGs a lot before law school. LevelUp! Games popped my gaming cherry when they released “Ragnarok” way back when I was still in college. I continued my journey jumping from publisher to publisher, mostly just trying some of ’em out.
Let me list down some of the games that I’ve played (and enjoyed) along with my primary character classes, with the exception of Ragnarok. It was mostly an experimental experience for me as I made a lot of different characters.
– Ragnarok
– Tantra (Samabat)
– Ran Online (Shaman)
– FlyFF (Ringmaster)
– Perfect World (Yao Jing)
– Fiesta Online (Cleric)
– Rohan (Elf Healer)
– Forsaken World (Bard)
Note: these games are all on Philippine servers from different publishers.
Looking at this list, I can definitely say that I have this affinity for support type characters. And yet again with Eligium, I created a Druid based on the Summoner tree.
The Druid Summoner is basically the healer, and as the name suggests, it is also the games’ resident summoner. More on this class in future posts as I have decided to log my gaming experience here (possibly doing a guide for the class, as info is really scarce at the moment).
Gameplay is still a bit buggy (some quests and the creation of the Fighter class, to name a few) with scripting needing a LOT of work (ENGRISH anyone?). Also, character notification and NPC interaction prompts a voice feedback, in CHINESE. So when I’m trying to use my skill when my MP is insufficient, my character says it to me in Chinese. Wish they’d fix that once the game goes commercial.
Skill leveling is similar to FlyFF PH (pre-PK on all servers era). You need to use the skill a number of times to level it up. A little tedious, yes. But compared to FlyFF’s now non-existent system (in which I have to use a third-party program to level my skills, which I have to admit wasn’t my shining gaming moment), Eligium boasts of the Assistant feature which is available once you hit LV25. It is basically an in-game botting system. I’ve been using it to level most of my skills, and to kill a lot of monsters minus the button mashing.
The game is now in its Open Beta stage, so the quirks I wrote above are understandable. There are currently a lot of players as the 4 servers (2 PVP and 2 PVE) are either showing full or busy, and as I’m writing this, they’re currently having a system maintenance that will last ’til 3PM (approx. 6 hours from its down time), which explains why I have time to write this in the first place.
If you want to try this game out, come join me at Oriel server. My character name is YuffieKisaragi (yes, FF7 FTW!).
To know more about this game, you can visit LevelUp! Games microsite here.
If you already have a MyLevelUp! account, you can create an Eligium account by logging in here and clicking the “Create Game Account” tab.
If you still don’t have one (a MyLevelup! account that is): “Register Now!“

I’ve never kept my disdain towards Globe a secret. They have yet to do something that would really make me root for them.
I have been their broadband subscriber since 2007. My relationship with them has been rocky for the first 2 years. I’m telling you, back then, when Globe is really out of whack, it’ll stay that way for WEEKS. And yes, this has caused me enough frustration to last me a lifetime.
Or so I thought.
Enter 2012. Regardless of my experience with them, I applied for a Postpaid line (BlackBerry UnliSurf Plan 599). I was thinking, since this is wireless, I wouldn’t encounter problems with connectivity, right?
WRONG!
Since Feb., I have been plagued with “SIM Card Rejected” errors on my BlackBerry. Worst is that in my area (Pacita, San Pedro Laguna), there are a LOT of dead spots where the signal would display SOS, or just plain GSM. I thought you guys were widening your network infrastructure? What happened with that?
So I called them about it and the service agent guided me through the troubleshooting process. When she came into the conclusion that there were no problems on their end, she told me to have my SIM replaced.
Anyhow, it took me a few months just to have it replaced (didn’t have time to do it back then). But guess what? The problem still persists.
I sent them tweets, thrice, in different days, with regard to my predicament. But alas, I DID NOT RECEIVE AN ANSWER FROM ANY OF THE THREE TWEETS.
NONE.
So here I am, stuck with a dumb service with 1 1/2 years to go, contemplating on whether I should opt out of it. But that would mean I have to pay the base price of the handset that I availed; 8k+ for a BlackBerry 8520.
Then I saw it online. SMART’s Freedom Plans; a Postpaid plan that starts from ZERO, and you only pay for what you use.
(That was a lengthy intro, don’t you think?)
Some articles state that it targets students and those who have just started working. But I say, this is the perfect opportunity for people who are quite reluctant of jumping ship.
By getting a Freedom Plan, I can try out SMART’s network services and compare. If it doesn’t suit my tastes, I’ll just stop using it, and I wouldn’t be charged anything. (That is, if I avoid subscribing into any of their buckets).
Perfect!
So what do I need to make this all happen?
Apparently, only a valid ID and 250 PhP as application fee.
That simple? Yes, it is. (And yes, I am talking to myself again).
Now the only problem here is that most (if not all) of my contacts are on Globe. But I guess it’s still too early for me to think about that. Right now, what’s important is to test how good SMART’s network really is.
I’ll be dropping by my nearest SMART store within this week. I do hope it’s worth all of this excitement.

It started July 12, 2012. The administrators of Forsaken World PH conducted the first ever “maintenance event” for players to while the time during, well, server maintenance. I was lucky to win the first one. The prize: 5pcs. LV3 Keenness Jades.
Where are my manners, forgive me for not explaining it earlier. Forsaken World PH is a MMORPG and it is being published by Cubizone Philippines. Keenness Jades are stones used to embed on socketed armor and weaponry. One (1) LV3 Keenness Jade adds 120 to attack.
Anyhow, the theme for that event was “Pixel Heroes”. There are over 70 Pixel Heroes in the picture they’ve provided and all you have to do to win is name 70 of them correctly.
I wasn’t around for the event a week after I won so I don’t know what the challenge was.
For last week’s challenge though (July 26, 2012), they had a collection of 35 movie posters and all you have to do is guess (more on this later).
I consider myself busy on Thursdays (Labor Relations is a drag), but I always find the time to join events like this one – games that involve thinking.
Needless to say, I was in on it. I consider myself having answered all of the movie posters correctly. It was considerably easy as I was familiar with most of it, having watched ’em on cable or in cinemas.
A week after (Aug 2, 2012) they announced the winners. Lo and behold, I didn’t win. Trust me when I say this, but I’m completely okay with it…except for the fact that I felt cheated, seeing a lot of inconsistencies with the outcome.
So I reviewed the entries of the winners, and they have something in common, specifically for this movie poster:
I know. The movie poster already says it all. It’s ‘Tropic Thunder’. Of course in the event, only the faces of Stiller, Downey Jr., and Black were shown. I don’t remember where I’ve seen the movie, but my bet is that it’s either on HBO or Star Movies via Cable TV.
However, both the winners answered something different altogether. In their entry, the movie title they placed was “Three Amigos 2 – This Time It’s In Vietnam”.
So yeah, WTF right? What the hell is that movie? I tried searching for it on IMDB, but to no avail. I tried looking for it via Google Search and voila, I found this:
Same poster, different movie title. Even if you’re not a movie buff, if you’ve already watched “Tropic Thunder” you’d know which is which. Heck, if they even bothered to dive into the link where that “Three Amigos 2” poster came from, they’d know that it’s not real.
Here’s the title and heading of the article:
8 Preposterously Honest Movie Posters
Photoshop makes film ads tell the truth…
By Sam Ashurst
Holytaco have used Photoshop as a kind of truth serum for movie posters, revealing how flicks would really be sold if distributors were forced to be honest about their products.
Crazy right?
What’s even crazier is the fact that the admin accepted this to be correct, at least that’s what I thought.
I forgot to mention that the event is held on their Facebook page, and entries are posted via comments. So after the announcement of winners, I decided to write a comment about the outcome and on the middle of my argument, I had to cite the rules which means I have to search for it again. It was then when I realized that it was made by crazy people:
Yup, you’ve read right. It said “to Guess”. No mention if one should do it “correctly” to win.
And there I was assuming that one should guess ’em all correctly to be able to win. So I had no choice but to accept the outcome, save for one:
Going by the rules, it still said “First player” from each server to “Guess”. After reviewing the entries, it turns out that the winner from Brink (not my server) was not the first to post his entry, therefore he shouldn’t have won.
It was mind-boggling to say the least. I mean, they can’t even follow their own, anomalous rule.
Right then and there I lost all faith in the game. I mean, the game was already losing its charm, but there’s still that tiny bit of hope left in me that somehow, they, the admin, would pull their shit together and make this game greater than on its current state.
But obviously, that’s still too much to ask of them. I mean, if they’re making rules as ambiguous as the one above for a mini-event such as this one, what more if it were a proper event?
This prompted me to post on my Facebook page that my character (a Wind Bard) is for sale.
Anyhow, I still went on with my comment:
I don’t expect them to answer and I don’t expect them to change the decision. Heck, I don’t expect anything from them anymore.
I AM DONE.
To me, they’ve truly forsaken the game through their inconsistencies.
One thing that’s funny though is this comment, which I assume is for me with regard to my comment as seen above:
Well, Mr. Yves Tayao,
First and foremost, thank you for calling me a nerd. I took it as a compliment given the fact that it would only be derogatory if uttered by someone who’s gifted in ALL aspects of life, and from your post I can already tell that you’re not one of them.
If you bothered to read it, or should I say, if you know how to read (assuming that you’d understand it afterwards), then you’d know that my post already exclaims what my problem is, and further reading (again, if you’ve done it) would show that I have already come to terms with the said problem by accepting the outcome of the event for our server, Verge.
However, seeing that fairness is still in question with regard to the winner from Brink server, I took the liberty of sending the message across to the proper authorities.
Again, thank you. I shall continue filling this world with my nerdiness, one post at a time.
With this, I end my rant. If you’re still reading this and you want a Forsaken World PH game account, send me a message. I’d be happy to sell you mine at a reasonable price. 🙂

I’ve neglected my “duty” to this blog (and to my non-existent readers), but just so I could put an end to what happened to my last post, I’ve decided to give an update.
Recap:
April 15 was when I purchased the HTC One V from MemoXpress Festival Mall branch. I had two replacements, both having physical (albeit minor) defects, but defects nonetheless. So I opted to take the second replacement the next day for another replacement.
Again, I had no qualms whatsoever with regard to the service that MemoXpress gives. They truly are pros and I intend to still do business with them in the future. (More on this on this later)
– End of recap –
On April 16, I was in constant communication with one of their employees. I never really asked for her position but with the way she handled things, it looked like she was not your typical rank-and-file.
Went out early in the morning. When I arrived at their store, she immediately checked the defective unit. After which, she took out their last stock of the One V. Apparently, they only had 3 initial stocks available.
I tested the last unit to the best of my ability for possible defects, and lo-and-behold, a silvery sliver of something emanates from the upper left portion of the screen, bringing in this feeling of devastation. My view of HTC evaporated and at that point, I felt like I’m totally lost.
They said other stocks will arrive on Thursday or Friday, or maybe even next week. I wasn’t in on that plan as in my opinion, If I paid outright for something, I must also get it in the same manner. But with the limited stocks that they had, having another replacement the same day was not an option.
The lady who assisted me the whole time then gave me other options: To get another unit within the same price range, to upgrade, or to completely cancel the transaction.
The second option, to upgrade, was never in my plans, even though my Mom supported the idea and that she’s willing to pay for the extra (I was calling and sending out messages to her regarding my situation at the time). Sure, the idea of having a high-end phone was indeed tempting, and the fact that they had stocks of the One X, the latest quad-core phone from HTC added to the temptation. But if there’s one thing I learned from buying the Samsung Galaxy S way back in 2010 is that never to be an early adopter for high-end units as prices seem to depreciate very quickly (spent over 30k for that phone, and it went down all the way to 20k).
Also, if my Mom is willing to spend extra, she might as well use the money for her monthly bills.
So I looked around, implying that I am willing to get another unit. But alas, at that time, they only had old units (like the LG Optimus Black and the Samsung Galaxy W which is not something I want) and the One V was the latest one at the same price. I am not willing to spend money on something that’s about to be replaced by a newer model. So that leaves me with the last option, which is to cancel the transaction.
I never thought this was possible as I’ve never even tried it before. My whole idea of a transaction like this one was that it was something that retailers would never do as it would be bad for their business.
But no, MemoXpress made it happen. The lady took my sales slip from yesterday, went into the back room, and came out with another slip that says the transaction has been cancelled.
I’m not saying that readers out there can opt to cancel at anytime. In fact, just in case you didn’t notice, the cancellation of transaction was given to me as a final option. We’ve exhausted all avenues to remedy the situation but none of the options worked for me, hence the cancellation.
Here’s what I’ve learned from this experience:
– Never be an early adopter of anything, even mid-range handsets.
– Even top brands like HTC, known for their great build quality, is susceptible to defects. (Oh the irony).
– That MemoXpress is a GREAT store. Even though their prices are way up there, they pretty much make up for it in terms of service.
– And finally, that I should stop being a phone-whore and just enjoy what I currently have, until its last “breath”.
I’ve managed to stick with the last thing I learned so far. I even surprise myself that I’m no longer that impulsive anymore. (But I have to confess that I still do some “research” on the latest phones that are out in the market).
Again, I would like to thank MemoXpress for their excellent service. I know this is now bordering “ad campaign” of some sort, but it isn’t. I’m just that grateful.
July 11, 2012 | Categories: Tech | Tags: defects, HTC One V, MemoXpress | Leave a comment
It’s been 2 months since I last had a new phone (I think I know what you’re thinking). Sure it hasn’t been that long, but the reason for the gap was the wait for new models to be released, and I have had my eye on HTC’s new One line.
For as long as I can remember (not too long actually), HTC has been churning out beautiful handsets. The likes of the HTC Desire and HTC Legend were the first two phones that got my attention. Although at that time, new Android phones with big screens were starting to unfold, so I opted for the Galaxy S instead. But my fascination for HTC never dwindled.
Okay, going back. Since I’m not really open to the idea of letting go of my BlackBerry, I opted to get the HTC One V, which is the cheapest of the bunch, as my secondary unit. I’ve waited for weeks, calling the same stores everyday, which I think bordered harassment. Then finally it happened. I received a call from a guy from MemoXpress that they already have stocks of the unit. I wasted no time and went there as soon as I could (I think 1-2 hours after the call) and bought one. So there I was, happy about my super sexy phone with a metal chassis. It was light, solid, and oozing with gorgeousness. I just couldn’t take my eyes off of it! Then, just when I got home after my trip to the mall, my eyes saw another thing that made it twitch like crazy…
Satan's Smile
So there I was, with a new phone in hand and a major annoyance in sight, I was flabbergasted to say the least. So I called up MemoXpress with regard to the defect and they told me to come over so they could have it checked.
I have nothing to complain with regard to MemoXpress; they have a solid customer service at their Festival Mall branch. But I’m starting to think after three phone models that our union is somehow cursed. I mean, the BlackBerry that I bought from them last September went “The Exorcist” route and decided to have its own way (cursor moving by itself). Next is the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V which is a complete disaster to say the least (camera purple fringing problems); I had to go through their entire stock just to find something that’s close to okay, and now the HTC One V and what seems to be a smile emanating from below the capacitive home button.
Regardless of the abovementioned problems, everything still worked out as they should (with regard to the first two that is). They sent the BlackBerry for repairs (got it after two friggin’ months), they replaced the Neo V, and after showing them that cute but awkward smile on the One V, they replaced it as well.
So now I should be happy, right? But alas, the curse kicked in yet again and gave me this:
The Dimple of Death
Yes. Although it did lose its smile, it on the other hand developed a dimple, and it’s driving me crazy!
I emailed Nino Matienzo (I’m not really sure of his position in the company, he may be the owner for all I know) regarding what happened. I also forwarded the email to the branch and gave them a call (see how annoying I am?) to inform them of the same. The guy on the other line (the one who assisted me with the replacement earlier) didn’t seem too accommodating (although he may just be tired. After all, I called in at nearly the store’s closing time). After I mentioned the “symptoms”, he inferred that it might be a dead pixel, but I’m pretty sure that it’s not given the fact that if you look at it from the top, it’ll seem as if it got sandwiched between the glass screen and the LCD panel, and really as part of the black bezel. Nevertheless, I told him that I would just drop by tomorrow morning, and he agreed.
So here I am with a new phone that I refuse to use due to its imperfection. Right now, I’m thinking that I made a bad choice buying it. My view of the HTC brand crumbled into nothingness after two units, and if things doesn’t work out with me and MemoXpress, I guess this will be the last time that their terminals will get a taste of my plastic. I can feel myself rotting from the inside with guilt, denial, and regret. But before I lose all hope, there’s still that visit tomorrow to try and have it replaced. My only wish is that things go smoothly.
Wish I could sleep this one off, but all I could really do right now is just sleep.
Mental Note: I also wish I didn’t pay that much attention to detail, giving me the ability to simply not care about these things. But, thing is, that’s what makes me “me”. I guess I’ll just save my pseudo-OCness rants for another post.

This should have been first before the post regarding my application, but as they say “better late than never”.
December 16, 2011 marked the launched of the iPhone 4S in the Philippines, and this time SMART Communications joined in on the iPhone fun as they decided to carry the 4S as well.
Anyhow, I’m not going to elaborate on the brawl between Globe and SMART, save for one.
Of course, with the advent of competition, Globe decided to step-up their game. A part of that game are TVCs, specifically the “My Super Wish for Love” commercial.
But before I get to that, as I’ve said Globe and SMART both launched the iPhone 4S on the same date. So what does that entail? Well for one, forum frenzy relating to the device itself. I’ve been in one of the forums (joined last November) and I somehow followed the everyday ordeal of the people there wanting to get their hands on the new iPhone 4S. What’s interesting to note though are those few people who already have the device on their hands, but are experiencing problems with it.
While some people said that Globe has a 7-day outright replacement of faulty units, others pretty much slammed that claim as they were told that they’d have to wait for a few weeks before they could get their phones back.
So what’s the relation with the TVC? Well, it mentioned there that they have a “Guaranteed Phone Replacement”. So the curious fat cat in me wanted to inspect, and lo and behold, I found that new, magical link on the bottom of the My Super Plan terms. Unfortunately, at the time of my inspection, the link was set to a loop, sending me back to the same page. But that was a few weeks ago. Yesterday however led me to visit that link again, and this is what I found:
I thought it weird that they kept referring to “handset” as “headset”.
I would’ve let it slide if I knew it was only a typo of some sort, but the same term kept reappearing over and over again. So that got me thinking: what’s their stand on Handset Replacement then?
There’s still no hard-and-fast rule with regard to replacement that’s indicated in the page. Everything’s just vague, even the terms used. I mean, we get it, you’ll replace the Headset, but if something happens to the phone itself? I guess subscribers are at the mercy of Globe employees then; having no set rules, it’s clear that it’ll be their decision to make.
*sigh*
In my honest opinion, that was just a hurried concept, something that they thought was an ace up their sleeve, something to beat the competition with. But alas, the policy itself is still vague to be even considered as informative, or useful for that matter. I already sent @Talk2Globe a tweet with regard to this but unfortunately, they chose to remain silent.
I guess I can say that I’ve done what any concerned citizen would have done, and then some. It’s really not my problem anymore. I just hope they clean up their act though. Being number 1 (or 2, depending on how you look at it) doesn’t mean you should be complacent. Just my two cents. 🙂

After a heated internal debate, my other self decided to get Globe’s BlackBerry Unli Surf Plan 599 with a free BlackBerry Curve 8520.
So I went to Globe’s Business Center at Festival Mall to apply for the said plan. Good thing that I was just second in line at the time (I’ll save that for another post) and the wait for the subscriber before me to finish was relatively short. Anyhow, once it was my turn I told the guy on the counter my interest with their Unli Surf Plan 599. He then told me the requirements, of which I have in my bag, and after giving him the documents he then told me to fill-up the application form.
What caught my attention is the BlackBerry promo flyer he had in front of him. It was their Free BlackBerry 8520 for the Unli Call and Text Plan with Unli BBM (698/mo) and for My Super Plan 499 with Unli BBM (598/mo). It did not indicate anything with regard to the Unli Surf Combo Plan 599, so that prompted me to ask.
The guy was blissfully unaware if they still had the promo, so he did what any good employee would have done: ask his co-worker (wait a sec…nevermind). His co-worker confirmed my fears that they do not, in fact, offer the promo anymore. So that got me thinking, if they don’t have that plan anymore, then what was it that I kept seeing being posted by Globe BlackBerry on Facebook?
Apparently, they kept posting on Facebook the same promo as with the flyer I saw at their GBC. There is a difference however as if you click the link from their FB post, it’ll send you over to their website where complete details of the promo is located, and at the bottom of the page:
Clicking that link would then lead you to details of the Unli Surf Plan 599 with the free BlackBerry 8520 handset, and there’s nothing there to indicate that this promo is limited to online applications.
So what’s bugging me you ask?
Coherence. Are they not under one and the same company? So why is it that the GBC doesn’t have the same promo when it does not state that it’s an “online exclusive”?
*sigh*
It’s just as confusing as their Handset Replacement Policy.
Despite the fiasco, I’m still interested in getting the said plan. So I might as well suck it up and proceed with my application online.

Christmas is fast approaching, and since I really have nothing else to do tonight (I’ll do all of the necessary reading tomorrow), I figured I’d create my list of “droolables” for this Yuletide season. This would consist of gadgets that are in WHITE (hence the title). So without further ado, here is my White Christmas Wishlist:
5.) BlackBerry Bold 9780
Wish it snowed here in the PH. Side comments aside, I already have a BlackBerry 9780, but ’til now I regret not getting it in white. I Have this theory that white is good at hiding fingerprints. I would like to know how my theory pans out, so having this one for Christmas would leave me giggling all Christmas-long.
4.) iPhone 3GS/4/4S
A two-year old iPhone, an iPhone bugged with reception issues, and an incremental update. All of these aside, an iPhone is an iPhone. Any of these will do so long as I get to experience the iOS ecosystem, and as long as it comes in white. Sure there’s the iPod Touch, but having access to cellular data as oppose to having to look for a hotspot, it’s a no-brainer.
3.) iPad 2
No surprise here. Of course I’d love to have an iPhone with a bigger screen, and that’s where the iPad 2 steps in. The white one I think was introduced upon release and that’s a good thing ’cause there’s no more waiting for months just to get one.
2.) Nokia N9
Saw the phone and was immediately captivated by its looks and its MeeGo OS, and when I saw it in white, hark the herald angels sing! Too bad Nokia decided to throw MeeGo in favor of WP7. Officially, WP7 and iOS are the last two OS’ I have yet to try out. But since Nokia outed this MeeGo masterpiece, I’m thinking it’s still worthy of a test drive.
1.) Macbook
This is my first love; the one that got away. They discontinued this in favor of the Macbook Air (which in my opinion is just a souped-up netbook). Although I have seen this still being sold in stores, probably stocks they’re trying to get rid of; well, I’m here, and I’m more than willing to “get rid” of one of these babies for them.
Well there you have it, my top 5. Most of ’em are not really that current, but what can I say, their charms are just that hard to forget and the thought of having them makes me want to scream “Merry Christmas” at the top of my lungs and just give hugs and kisses to everyone, which is a good enough reason why no one will give me one of these in the first place.

I’ve just learned ’bout this yesterday, no biggie as I started using WordPress only a few days back. The app has been out since last year and is now on version 1.3.9 which was released last January 25, 2011.
Below is a screenshot taken from my SGS.
If you’re on Android and you like blogging on the go, then this is for you.
You can download the app straight from the Android Market on your phone or on the web, or you can just use a Barcode / QR Scanner (if you don’t have one, you can download here) and use it on the image below.
