Yahoo! recently implemented a new feature called “sign-in seal,” which pretty much is like what banks and credit card websites have already been using, but smarter.  The feature, basically, is meant to help prevent phishing attacks. 

It is apparently smart enough in that it spans browsers and survives cookie deletions by way of cookie-like Flash shared objects…props to Yahoo! for making it much “smarter.”

Since I am a Comcast/TimeWarner subscriber, I thought I’d pass this along so others can join in and fight corporations that violate Net Neutrality.

Please fill out this petition.  It is working, as stated on SaveTheInternet.com’s website:

Late last year Comcast was caught secretly inspecting Internet traffic and crippling users’ ability to share files, download video and use other popular Internet software.

Power to the people!

My grandfather, who is like my father as he brought me up, passed away on January 16, 2008 at 12:30 PM.  He was 82 years old, and is survived by his wife, Dra. Aurora Padolina Perez, three children, and grandchildren.

He was a kind, hard-working, inspiring person and brilliant physician.  I will miss him terribly.  Please pray for him. 

I will miss you, Lolo, but I’ll see you again.  I love you!

You read the title right.  A customer worried about Y2K had placed a call to Microsoft tech support 10 years ago, but only got a call back on 1/8/08.  This is nuts!

Here’s the explanation: The customer called on 1/7/98, and the rep noted a call back for the next day.  Unfortunately, however, rather than typing 1/8/98, the rep typed 1/8/08 because ‘8′ and ‘9′ are so close together.

Here’s the blog entry by the son of the customer.  Hilarious!

Google is really a juggernaut, innovative, technology-making machine.  It’s Google Maps website now includes The Weather Channel to give consumers more info.  Is that awesome or what?!
