Starhub changes HDTV programming

After being subjected to months of old World Cup matches, finally Starhub is showing samples of DiscoveryHD and National Geographic HD. And they look BEAUTIFUL.

Using the power of Blogger Beta

From a `user' of blogging technology and not really a power blogger geek, Blogger Beta's new features are a god-send. I especially like the enhanced way that archived posts are presented in the javascript applet on the sidebar. And the organization of the page elements enable code to be put into a neat little box in authoring mode, makes things so much more clean and configurable.

Here we are - the Tech-Biased Perspective in a new look.
