I already got my free gadget, I picked the HP Deskjet F4280 Printer!

Of course the only downside of renewing my contract is that I’m tied with SmartBro for two years. Well, the services was good enough for my work these past few months. And the only internet available around my area are Globe Wireless Broadband and SmartBro Plan 999. I really wish for a physical line of DSL, but I think it’ll take a year or so for the phone companies to penetrate our subdivision.

Btw, almost the same promo is given to Globe Bro subscribers. Business competition is really good for the consumers.

I got this flyer when I avail for the “free printer” freebies in Smart Wireless Center for my SmartBro Plan 999,  it’s a pretty cool promo for SmartBro Prepaid Plug-It Subscribers. However, I didn’t get the SmartBro Prepaid Plug-It but the free printer which is HP 3-in-1 printer HP Deskjet F4280.

Pretty cool huh?

Design Coding

The Poetic Prophet (AKA The SEO Rapper) is back with another marketing rap. This time he describes how web standards and proper design can affect the ranking and conversion of pages on your site.
lyrics:Your site design is the first thing people see
it should be reflective of you and the industry
easy to look at with a nice navigation
when you can’t find what you want it causes frustration
a clear Call to action to increase the temptation
use appealing graphics they create motivation
if you have animation
use with moderation
cause search engines can’t index the information
display the logos of all your associations
highlight your contact info that’s an obligation
create a clean design you can use some decoration
but to try to prevent any client hesitation
every page that they click should provide and explanation
should be easy to understand like having a conversation
when you design the style go ahead and use your imagination
but make sure you use correct color combinations
do some investigation, look at other organizations
but don’t duplicate or you might face a litigation
design done, congratulations but it’s time to start construction
follow these instructions when you move into production
your photoshop functions then slice that design
do your layout with divs make sure that it’s aligned
please don’t use tables even though they work fine
when it come to indexing they give searches a hard time
make it easy for the spiders to crawl what you provide
remove font type, font color and font size
no background colors, keep your coding real neat,
tag your look and feel on a separate style sheet
better results with xml and css
now you making progress, a lil closer to success
describe your doctype so the browser can relate
make sure you do it great or it won’t validate
check in all browsers, I do it directly
gotta make sure that it renders correctly
some use IE, some others use Flock
some use AOL, I use Firefox
title everything including links and images
don’t use italics, use emphasis
don’t use bold, please use strong
if you use bold that’s old and wrong
when you use CSS, you page will load quicker
client satisfied like they eating on a snicker
they stuck on your page like you made it with a sticker
and then they convert now that’s the real kicker
make you a lil richer, your site a lil slicker
design and code right man I hope you get the picture
what I’m telling you is true man it should be a scripture
if it’s built right you’ll be the pick of the litter
everyone will want to follow you like twitter
competition will get bitter and you’ll shine like glitter
if you trying to grow your company will get bigger
design and code right man can you get with it

Yesterday, since I lost internet again and can’t sleep because it was “scorching hot” I decided to take my daughter Vanessa to the hospital for a quick visit. My wife agreed to make a quick visit since we don’t like the check up made by a general physician (family physician) in MariCris last Sunday. The lady doctor (family physician) concluded to give us Cefalexin, Muculytic (penbroxsol if I remember correctly) and anti-histhamine. Take note “Kasama mo na bibilin yun after ng consultation, and the boxes looked local“.
My daughter, Vanessa Jane is suffering from LBM lately and wasn’t able to sleep well at night. Her eyes are deep, and very restless at night.

We arrived at La salle 2:30pm but ironically we weren’t able to catch the pediatrician that was referred to me since she left 2pm. Since we are already in the hospital we decided to peek another pediatrician available. Dr. Melchoir Mathias (if I remember his name’s spelling correctly, I’m too lazy to go down and check his prescription for his name) did a good job, and oddly Vanessa was nice to him. They go along pretty well, I’d say.

Long story short, the doctor advises to finish up all the vitamins Vanessa is consuming and stick to Ped-Zinc and some Baccilus (Vial-type treatment) that she can easily swallow (in a liquid type-water taste form) that can help her disperse the bacteria inside her stomach. Stop the medicine that family physician gave, and do water therapy instead.
