I've met Rhian Ramos again this afternoon and there I told her that I'm having a growing number of photo op files with her (I'm glad she didn't got scared, not mistake me as a stalker) and then she told me if I went to the Smart x HTC event last night, then I told her that I didn't went there and decided to sent my reporter there to cover it for me, and we shared topics like that some people got drunk last night hahaha (yeah one of them is my reporter). Great to see her again and now time to have another photo op session with Rhian. I always do photo op whenever I see her in some events.

Spartacus: Gods of the Arena on MAX

MAX recently airs the 1st episode of Spartacus: Gods of the Arena last July 1, and mind you! that's my birthday, luckily I spotted the mid episode of it and got a chance to preview it before seriously watching it on the replay episode, It was a mind blowing series complete with gory, blood and topless men with abs ahhaha. But this is just a start because Spartacus: Gods od the Arena is a 6 part series that airs every Friday of July at 10PM and lastly on August 1 at 10PM.

If you are asking if this is related to the Blood and Sand series, then the answer is yes! because Gods of Arena is a prequel series for Blodd and Sand. The story is about Gannicus, the charismatic gladiator aspiring to become Champion of Capua, played by Australian actor Dustin Clare, and his master, Quintus Batiatus, played again by John Hannah (The Mummy), itching for the chance to rise in status in the Roman outpost town.

After Google+, we will say goodbye to Picasa and Blogger

I just read some news and info over at the stream of Mashable in Google+, and they revealed that we will be no longer embracing the name Picasa and Blogger because the name will be gone and it will be rebranded to Google Photos and Google Blogs after the launch of Google+, and we will experience this in the next few weeks when Google+ goes public.

news here at http://mashable.com/2011/07/05/google-blogger-picasa-rebranding/

If they can rebrand the two, or even Blogger.com, they should include YouTube too.
I don't like this idea and rebranding the blogging platform that I loved for since 2002 will be now called Google Blogs, now I can see in the future that every blogger using Blogger.com will be called Google Bloggers or Googlers.

what will happened to those blogspot users?

what is your reaction to this news?
