I am proud to present to you the free lifestreaming wordpress theme: LifeStreaming White. I know, not a very creative name, but hey it’s free! This theme utilizes jQuery to display recent updates in a  horizontal scrolling fashion, kind of like a timeline. You can watch your life go by, and scroll through your updates! Without further ado, here is LifeStreaming White.

I see a big problem with the semantic web and social networks. We have all these great tools like twitter, last.fm, youtube, etc, but it becomes time consuming and unmanageable to update them all. For instance, you want tweet on twitter, you have to login in and post your update. You then update your facebook status, same thing – login and post your update. The process repeats. As soon as your list of social services grows, this can take quite some time. Wouldn’t it be easier if this was streamlined from your desktop or mobile devices? In my opinion, yes! There are a handful of apps already developed to do so, and many more to come in the future. Here’s a list of some tools to help you streamline your social updates.

I haven’t been posting much lately, but I promise I’ve been working hard on the tools mentioned in the previous post. Life is about to really change for me now. I can’t go into much details at this moment, but trust me when I say its drastic. I’m excited, scared, nervous, and anxious, all at the same time.I’m gonna start blogging a lot more when things settle a lit bit more.

To get ‘viral’ aka spread around like a disease on the net (meaning lots of traffic), you gotta come up with something people are interested in and provides some value. This value can be in the form of entertainment, the form of something free, something informative, anything really. The key is that its interesting or useful. I will be pumping out some ‘viral’ tools / products shortly, but don’t want to spoil the suprise before I do. It’s really about experimentation and finding a formula that works. After my experiment, I will post a follow up and let you know the exact details of what I did, and what kind of traffic it generated. Stay tuned!

I’ve been super sick since sunday, but I managed to post a butt load of music I’ve made over the years onto the music page (right hand link). A lot of it is still incomplete, and none of it is in any particular order. I just seperated the beats from the other stuff. The beats are on the bottom half and start with ‘beat – ‘. I’m not proud of all of it, but I posted it anyways. I still have a lot of stuff which isn’t up yet too. Have a gander, and post some feedback.

Whenever I listen to Bloc Party it really brings back memories and feelings of a certain time in my life. I was first introduced to them 3 or 4 years ago during the autumn season, and listening the brand new album ‘Intimacy’ them now, on October 31, really brings me back. I remember riding the bmx around in the cold crisp air, with the brown leaves starting to fall, gray skies, wearing a warm scarf, and grande vanila americano with a smooth leon jimenez cigar. How poetic, I know. Laugh all you want, but I do miss this indeed, and right now wish I could be home to rekindle that. On the subject of bloc party, the new album intimacy (released oct 28, 2008) is pretty damn good. I did an ‘index of’ search and found the full download of bloc party – intimacy album here. Leave a comment if this link breaks.

Here in the Philippines, it is not a common practice to use toilet paper. Instead, most of the locals use the ladel to clean the black hole of doom after defecating. In a recent event, one of the filipinos that works on the same floor as me decided it would be funny to break the lids off the toilet seats, so you now have no where to put your ass. Thanks a lot dick wad! I’m really glad I consistently do squats at the gym, as staying perched in the frog position gets rather tiresome. Thankfully I pack my own supply of toilet paper around so I don’t have to resort to getting my hand stinky.

I always preach that the most important part of your body to train is your core. You should really train your core every single day. A huge part of gaining core strength is to always be thinking about good posture, especially for those of you who have desk jobs. Good posture at the desk can be difficult because most of us don’t have a proper ergonomic setup. With a little creativity however, you can do things to FORCE you to sit properly at your desk.

It’s hard to come home after a days work and go back to work, especially when you don’t have any guarantee that what your doing is going to pay off. It feels like ‘why should I even bother?’, especially when the web is so saturated in every topic. Well, yes it’s over saturated, but that definitely does mean that you can’t make money at it.

Below I have listed four key subjects that keep me motivated and continually slaving away even when I’d rather relax and watch TV.

Roughly 90% of guys that hit the gym focus on two body parts: chest and arms. They hit a plateau because they don’t work all muscles of the body, which is key to continually gaining strength and proper muscle development. The most import thing to focus on is your core. If you don’t have a solid core, then you will come to a peak, and fast. Here are 10 exercises you must do to see fast results in your work outs. Read The Rest
