Pacquiao Vs Cotto

The much anticipated boxing match between Manny Pacquio and Miguel Cotto has come and gone. I stayed up to watch the fight last night, with it's consequences during the day. I sat through three pre-matches before the big fight, I hadn't heard of any of the six boxers but was interesting nonetheless but I did nod off every now and then.

The match finally got on the way around 4:40am.....there abouts, I couldn't wake up my partner to watch with me. She had asked to be woken up but was already in dreamland. So, I lay there and watched the fight by myself.

The bell goes and the fight starts, I get a tense feeling, I wanted to reach for my BlackBerry and check my Facebook to check out friends status' and Twitter for any tweets relating the the match but I didn't want to take my eyes away from the screen, I wanted to watch every punch thrown. Instead, I thought about how millions of Filipinos around the world were probably glued to the TV just like as I was, to give support to the man who has become a national hero, bringing Filipinos around the world together with every match he fights. I can't think of any other person that has brought the Filipinos around the world to a halt and sit in front of the TV to watch him defeat boxing champions.

I was born and raised in the UK but I was brought up in a very Filipino way and Filipino Pride runs deep in me. It's great to a Filipino proud to represent.

SquareSpace

I've been wanting to update the look of website for sometime but always get distracted by other things and don't really get the time to do so. Or maybe I'm just procrastinating too much and need to just get on with it.


Anyway, I've been hearing a lot about SquareSpace lately, it's a website builder but not just your ordinary website builder, this site also lets you import your existing blogs from Blogger, MovableType, WordPress and TypePad. It will also import tags, comments, media, authors and search engine optimisation so as not to lose your Google ranking.

It has been much hyped by the guys over at Tekzilla and well as GeekBrief's Cali Lewis.

I'll work on it during the next week or so and blog on the results soon after.

Why not try out yourself too, check out SquareSpace now.

Getting back on track

It seems I have been neglecting my own personal blog for some time. Rest assured I shall be blogging on here once again. I was focusing a lot on a tech blog which I am trying to launch over at www.thematrixfactor.com but that too has been neglected of late although not as long as this one.

I have been busy with personal life and getting things back on track so things will pick on here more frequently. Mostly on personal thoughts but may also start to add some tech and gadgety stuff too, as those are the things that most interest me but my main tech blog will be at www.thematrixfactor.com (which is also going through a design change soon).

You can head over there now to check out my previous blogs.
