With the e-book market growing by leaps and bounds in the Western world, it will be a matter of time before we'll be seeing e-book readers in our friendly neighborhood electronics shops. Amazon recently opened up its Kindle device for international markets, while Barnes & Noble entered the fray with its Nook reader. Sony has been churning out improvements for its own devices, while the industry

If there's one thing that struck me deep with the Ondoy experience is the thought that there are simply too many Filipinos. We're hitting 98 million, and will reach the 100 million mark in less than two years. That's more mouths to feed and more bodies to shelter. How can our 300,000 square-kilometer country possibly handle the stress?According to the CIA website, our birth rate is approximately

Now that Paula Abdul has exited American Idol (to be replaced by Ellen DeGeneres), we can only wish her the best of luck. Feels weird seeing her do other things, like that little "Ellen" tribute she did in the recent VH1 Divas show--even hosting the entire event, for that matter. I hope that she finally, finally releases a full studio album.Check out Paula singing live in the early 90s, during

Interesting. In the website Numismaster.com, Richard Giedroyc of World Coin News reports that the Philippines may just change the design of its currency. This reminds me of that campaign years ago to redesign the American dollar, resulting in some really fabulous ideas.(See other U.S. dollar ideas in the Dollar ReDe$sign Project.)Since my brain wasn't working at the office, I decided to give the
