GEE, is there no escaping spam?
Take a look at this text spam I received while surfing using PLDT WeRoam. Click on the thumbnail.
I guess it’s just to be expected since mobile phone spam is unfortunately still a big problem.
Anyone else experiencing this on PLDT WeRoam or Globe Visibility?
A FEW years ago, I reviewed an online mystery novel called The Daughters of Freya from Emailmystery.com, which creatively uses e-mail as a medium for literary works.
Yup, the stories published by Emailmystery.com unfold via e-mail, with new messages getting sent to your inbox over a period of three weeks.
Now The Daughters of Freya co-author Michael Betcherman has a new e-mail story, this time a romantic comedy called Suzanne. It was great to hear from Michael again, and here’s an excerpt from his e-mail:

OK, I’ve finally seen the light
After years of being in the PC camp – it’s been almost 13 years since I last used an Apple computer – a few days ago I left the, er, Dark Side and embraced the Mac.
New Mac convert here, so pardon me if I gush over things I know every Mac user might take for granted, heh. (I mean, seriously, how come it’s so easy to boot up and shut down when Windows takes forever?) So say hello to the sleek new MacBook Pro with the 15.4-inch screen that the office has assigned to me, which my five-and-a-half-year-old daughter Sam and I have christened Mikaela.
