the other day, our new IT consultants changed our IP address and installed some web filtering software in our server. it's the most ideal set-up to protect us from unwanted stuffs that are lingering in the cyberworld.
and then it happened.
i cannot log-in on this blog.
i cannot accessed my yahoo account. i cannot view my flickr account. i cannot open my multiply account. waaaaaa! and friendster is the only thing okey??? what the...?
and my eight-month old blogging life flashed before my eyes, patay!
i need to have a plan b. think, think, think. okey, i'll buy a laptop and ask smart bro for an internet connection in the house. sandali lang yun. what? a laptop is more than 1000? wala bang tingi? hahaha, desperation, desperation, desperation.
of course i know how much a decent laptop costs (decent is subjective), and i know it will cost me an arm and a leg, i should know, i've been drooling like crazy whenever i see one (discreetly syempre, but it's different when it comes to dslr kulang na lang yakapin ko yung camera hehe) and i wanted to have one but practicality is what hinders me from getting one (and i have other plan/priority for the little money that i am getting *wink, future, wink*).
yesterday, i talked to our japanese contractor, and he told me it's only for a few days that we will be experiencing some glitches, one week maximum as they are still doing some off-site adjustments.
nakahinga ng maluwag ang lolo hehehe.
and today, everything's back to normal, at least on this blog. obviously, naka-log in nako. the web filter is now working and sad to say, it's goodbye to my flickr and multiply accounts. i still cannot view some blogs, like toe's (under the news advocacy sabi ng filter, di ko alam ano ibig sabihin) or sngl's (forum/message boards daw). i guess, from now on, it's going to be tough accessing anything wordpress related or some stuffs. sigh.
you can't have it all sabi nga, but at least, i still get to blog on my free time in the office (defensive no hehe) and can post something relevant like this or as thought provoking such as this.
happy weekend everyone, kanpai!!!
the Optimus Prime that i know
PS: it's a TRANSFORMERS' weekend!

Hahaha... adik... can't live without blogging. ;) Ang gulo kc ng mga IT consultants nyo e. :) Baka naman temporary lang yung hindi mo pag-access sa blog ko. Wala naman security chenes-chenes or anything. Anyway, good that you can blog in the office again. :)
hmmm baka nag down na naman yung domain nila Toe at Sngl...magkakabit kasi bituka ng mga yan hrhrhrh
anyway good thing okay na :)
mabuti naman hindi totoo. mahirap mawala ang blogging. pampalipas init at gulo ng utak din ito. (defensive)
there was a time when I couldn't access my blogger account at work because of software that blocks blogs, friendster, etc. Now, I can access my blog and other blogs, but since they monitor my web activity via computer logs and my cubicle is located in a high traffic area (lots of people walking by), i just limit my surfing to 3-4 websites.
All's well that end's well...
It is a good thing that you're back to being 'almost normal' in your blogging /bloghopping activities. Wishing you more & more money para mabili mo ang gusto mong laptop!
C u around , Zherwin!
whew! nakaka-kaba siguro talaga yun ano? thinking that u cant access your blog na! good that its ok now...at least! :)
Buti naman na ka blog ka na ulit. Transformers is awesome!
nakow! Buti na lang at sa office namin walang IT... Feel free to use kami ng internet anytime. Yung nga lang, i hate it when my officemates brings their kids/pamangkins to work. With matching kamag-anak pa. Parang abuso kasi.
Bumili ka na lang ng laptop...
nice to know that you are able to blog in the office. wheeww! it scared the heck out of you, huh?
hope you can still access my blog, if not, it is okay, i will visit you from time to time whenever possible.
no reason why they have to restrict from doing what you love doing. happy workers are efficient and productive, di ba?
and that's the optimus prime that i know also... pero ok na rin yung movie, sana sa next isama ang dinobots and the constructicons, hehehehe
Dito sa opis namin, naunang na-block ang Friendster kasi napansin na wala nang ginawa iba dito kundi mag-friendster! Bakit naman kasi pinahalata nila! hahaha
Tapos sumunod na yung ibang community sites. As far as I know apat lang kami sa opis ang may blog so they don't see blogging as a nonproductive -slash-time consuming-slash-shoud be blocked thing. Yehey!
Glad to know you can blog now. Blogging is addictive as it can serve as an outlet of... whatever. Did you try if you could enter my blog? I'd feel very bad if you couldn't. Enjoy your free internet access. :)
toe, it's okey na. though for the last two days, i cannot totally view my blog, pati blog ko na-block hehehe. yesterday, the IT people came and did something. so heto, pwede na ulit at naa-access ko na ulit kayong lahat. yipee! :)
verns, alam mo bang pati blog mo at lahat ng wordpress hosted sites ay di pwede? hehehe.
pero okay na. happy days!!!
atticus, totoo, pampaalis umay ng trabaho minsan lang nasosobra kaya nakakakonsensya din hehehe. :)
wil, everything's back to normal, and the things that are no longer allowed are multi-media downloads, anyway, i am not using youtube that much...
hi gina, laptop is like three to five years away from reality, not really my priority (or so i thought hehehe).
ferdz, super awesome! hanep sa action! i am planning for a review but i can't write properly, masyado akong excited hehehe (tapos two days ko pang di ma-access tong site...)
jho, wow, free for all? hehehe.
belle, even for the last two days that i cannot view even my own blog, i was able to go to your site and anyone else except for those blogspot/wordpress hosted. but everything's back to normal. :)
lino, dinobots!!! i have a feeling na sa next movie, ipapasok nila yung pagpalit ni starscream kay megatron bilang lider ng decepticon, kasi sa end credits sya lang yung pinakita eh (di ba ambisyoso nga talaga sya?)
watson, kabaliktaran naman dito, yung friendster ang di ginalaw o sya lang ang in-allow. hehehe
pero okey na ngayon :)
ey, yes okey na ulit. yahooo! :)
abaniko, last week i cannot access anything blogspot/wordpress, including yours and mine, but today everything's back to normal, as if nothing had happened. hehehe
hello dba you asked about the hotels here? i was supposed to give you the info kaso na misplace ko na. can i have your email addy? ill try to send it once i found it.
buti naman you got to access at least ang blog mo. :)
hi tina, i'll send you my email addy, asap. hehehe. thanks ha. :)
i can't access friendster here. filtered din dito pero at least accessible ang blogger at wordpress.
lazarus, okey lang naman kahit walang friendster, puro teenagers kasi nandun (tapos meron din akong account hehehe)
