Yahoo just emailed me inviting me to check out the new Yahoo Email Beta. I found out I was not on their priority list since a few people already have their hands on them since mid-September. But, nevertheless I got to it before it was released. You can check out the new Yahoo Mail features by taking a tutorial here. As expected Yahoo took full advantage of AJAX, the use of tabs, and a few shortcuts. It’s quite impressive and seems to be outdating Google’s new mail interface. I can’t really get a full picture of how good the Yahoo interface is, due to a slow DSL connection.

Here’s a list of famous WordPress blogs.

I arrived in the Philippines last Tuesday morning and it’s now Friday afternoon. I didn’t get a chance to post due to a very busy schedule. It’s true what they say, time does fly when you’re having fun. The last three days have been a blur. It has been raining hard here which is good because it’s not as hot as usual. A typhoon arrived Wednesday and there hasn’t been a letdown ever since. Manila and northern Luzon took the brunt of the storm. I saw on the news that 16 people have died, and thousands have lost their homes. I’m Iloilo City in Central Philippines and we haven’t experienced the high winds that Manila has had, but it’s been raining consistently. Regarding sleep, I need it. I can harldy keep my eyes open in the late afternoons which makes sense since it’s past midnight in California. Jetlag blues. I’ve also have been waking up consistently at 3am. Go figure.
