Most of the strides, I feel, have been on the technology front. As far as clothes, food, and music are concerned, I feel that this decade is still pretty similar to the 90s. An arguable point, I admit, but something I can contend with.

As far as tech goes, the sky seems to be the limit at this point. I wouldn't be surprised to see a 5MP cameraphone hit the local market next year, and I wouldn't be surprised if entire cities in Metro Manila become Wi-Fi capable. I also wouldn't be surprised to see a desktop PC that ships with a 500GB hard drive next year as well. Given the quality and size of the games coming out, and the increasing availability of media over the web, trust me, 500G still won't be enough.

In my field, they have come up with video cameras that don't use tapes anymore, but instead comes with a hard drive. I'm more excited about the Panasonic videocam cam that shoots HD-quality video and stores them on flash drives. That camera will change the way we work, bar none. And need I mention all the Digital SLRs in the market, the Mac laptops more powerful than most video editing computers, and all the software available to the average media practitioner? The rules in my field have changed overnight because of all these advancements, and I'm doing all I can to keep up. So far so good.

Which brings me to my point. It's a foregone conclusion that the tech available to us will keep getting better and better with every passing month. The real issue here is that this tech is changing the way we live, the way we conduct business, the way we spend our leisure time, and the way we manage our personal affairs (Hello, Friendster!). The challenge now is to take advantage of this new tech and see how it can better our current situation.

Wala lang.

The basic cam comes up to P300,000. However, you still have to buy P2 cards and other peripherals, so it will jack up the price somewhat.

You delivered a HVX200? Bakit, nagdidistribute ba kayo nyan?

Pahingi naman ng quote for a camera, two 8gb P2 cards, at yung dock for the P2 cards. Seryoso ako, I need to know.

Well, it looks gorgeous, that much is apparent. I'm tempted to say that it's just another hyped-up phone, but you never know with Apple...

Saan ba ang mga bagong Jap restos ngayon?
