Bed and Breakfast in Paris

Posted by miuki as Advertorial

Many accommodations, particularly big chain Paris Hotels are a dime a dozen and the hotel experience will not differ than practically any other hotel in most countries all over the world.

Once in a while, wouldn’t you rather shake your life up a little and experience something that truly gives you a small peek into the French way of life? Particularly in Paris, the City of Light?

Instead of booking that standard chain hotel room and being that typical tourist that just goes and moves along side the hoards of tourists gawking at the world famous landmarks (Tour Eiffel, Arc de Triomphe,le Louvre, Notre Dame, left and right banks, etc) but paying gobs for a teeny tiny hotel room that doesn’t give them personal service, this time look for family run Hotel Paris or a Bed and Breakfast in Paris or thalasso in France.

You will have a different experience altogether, a memorable and personal trip you will cherish for a long, long time. [ Click here to read more ]

Telecommunications - Get connected!

Posted by miuki as Advertorial

Communication is the most important tool of getting connected to your loved ones no matter where you are. Thanks to technology things are getting easier as compared to before. Especially telecommunications.

Although cost of telecommunications are rapidly dropping, there are still a particular group of people that would still think twice before paying that extra dollar to make a call back to where they came from.

Yes, I’m referring to those who went aboard, away from their home town to other states for work. As cheap as telecommunications may already be, for these individuals, for example, Philippines and India, cost is always a considering factor to them. [ Click here to read more ]

Don’t leave home without one

Posted by miuki as Advertorial

If you need to take care of the old ones and still make it for a game launch, clan match or anything like that.

Well… It’s time to look at options isn’t it?

When it comes to long-term care, we all want to make the right choice - for ourselves and our loved ones.

So arranging the right kind of care is crucial for your welfare and your peace of mind.

(I know, this really isn’t selling well at all. Still…)

Anyhow.

Did you know that care homes are like nursing home?

Like duh. It’s quite obvious. [ Click here to read more ]

Loving the shopping cart!

Posted by miuki as Advertorial, Personal

Some time ago I wrote about the idea of doing up this new online game shop with this shopping cart software from Ashop Commerce, well, it’s almost done. Seriously.

You may think it’s an advertorial entry or something, but well… It isn’t. I actually installed it and playing around with it right now!

But of course, I’m not releasing it until later days. Got some integration to meddle with before I proceed on actually advertising the site and all. (If I can successfully integrate it that is.)

It’s quite complex yet simple at the same time. Fascinating I must say. (Okay maybe not that fascinating.)

All in all, it has the right features, has the right look, and well, has the ability to allow online shoppers to purchase. Duh. (Otherwise it wouldn’t be a shopping cart software would it?) [ Click here to read more ]

Geeky is the new Beautiful?

Posted by miuki as Advertorial

I do not deny that I love the camera most of the time, but while playing Counter-Strike, is kinda over the edge.

Sigh. I wish I had 20/20 eye sight, but well… Apparently I don’t.

If you paid attention the so-called trend lately, you’d notice this that more and more females are kinda into the whole ‘geeky look‘ thing. (I’m a natural by the way, considering that fact that I was once a nerd.)

Seriously,

Geeky is the new Beautiful?

Cause it really seems like that. Don’t you agree?

Sigh. Lately my eye sight is getting from bad to worst. I blame it on the computer games and web development projects. I’ve been facing the computer like 12-16 hours a day. Can you imagine?

I need a new pair of glasses? [ Click here to read more ]

A game of online billiard.

Posted by miuki as Advertorial, Web-based

SNOOKER. A cue sport that is played on a large baize-covered table with pockets in each of the four corners and in the middle of each of the long side cushions.

To play snooker you need a regulation (full-size) table which is 12 ft × 6 ft, you need a cue, a white ball (which we refer to as the cue ball), 15 red balls (each of which worths a point), and 6 balls of different colors (each of which worths 2–7 points).

A player (or team) wins a frame of snooker by scoring more points than the opponent or opponents, using the cue ball to pot the red and colored balls. Simple eh?

And of course, a match consists of an agreed number of frames. The END!? [ Click here to read more ]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl?

Posted by miuki as Games, Rumors, Wii

According to Kotaku, the Gamer’s Guide, rumor says that

Why Is There No Capcom In Super Smash Bros. Brawl?

I’m going to just cut and paste a couple of ‘dialogs’ and comment accordingly.

With all the characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there are a few that are missing. Where’s Mega-Man?

Here’s problem no. 1 for me. I’m not quite sure what Super Smash Bros is. Thus, I am quite confused with this remark.

That character certainly wouldn’t be out of place. Or what about Chun-Li or Ryu? The SNES controller was designed to suit the Street Fighter II port! Likewise, those characters would be right at home with the Smash Bros. Want to know why?

I like the way it’s phrased. And yes, wouldn’t we all eh? [ Click here to read more ]

Know-It: Ultrasound Technology

Posted by miuki as Advertorial

I have no idea what ultrasound tech is or what ultrasound tech school teaches, but I guess I’m about the find out…

Ultrasound Technology operates on scientific principles utilized by such animals as bats and dolphins.

The term ultrasound actually refers to

any sound above a frequency 20,000 hertz, or the maximum limit of human hearing. Although we cannot perceive these sounds, a variety of natural creatures can both detect and produce ultra-high frequency acoustic signals.

Bats, for instance, emit ultrasonic sounds and then listen for them to be echoed off their surroundings. From the duration and volume of these echoes, a bat is able to create a picture of his environment that allows him to navigate and catch tiny insects in pitch darkness. In fact, the precision of this method is nothing short of staggering: a bat can tell the difference between a flying moth and a falling leaf while flying at full speed!

Interesting eh? [ Click here to read more ]

Game. Gaming. Gambling?

Posted by miuki as Advertorial, Perspectives

There’s like a directory for everything these days.

And basically the most important thing, in my opinion that is, that makes an online directory work is the search-ability, and of course, the site navigations.

This Casino guide site (as in the screenshot above) really need a color-makeover, and I can’t really say much about the ‘search-ability‘. In fact, I don’t exactly see any. But of course, navigation wise… It’s really not too bad. Easy to navigate around and more importantly, the whole table thingy works well for me.

Lets move on…

I wouldn’t really define ‘Gambling‘ as ‘Gaming‘ or even that it’s something like a ‘Game‘. However, I don’t exactly call the shots either, do I? [ Click here to read more ]
