That Thing Called Bluetooth

I have been trying to figure out for many days now how I can connect to the Internet using my Samsung 3G phone as a modem as it doesn't come with a data cable or a bluetooth adapter to hook it up with my laptop. I know I've got to have either of the two to get connected but I was hoping there's a sort of roundabout of doing it. I've looked here and there till my wanderings led me to bluetooth technology articles and wireless bluetooth headsets reviews.

Bluetooth technology allows compatible devices to communicate with each other over low frequency radio waves, thus, these devices don't have to be in line of sight of each other to connect. The technology is becoming a popular way to stay connected wirelessly. Bluetooth enables you to connect to the internet, share or transfer files, stream music and a lot, lot more.

Wireless bluetooth headsets can help you more productive, most of the reviews say, because they are totally hands-free. It can also keep you safe. In the US, new state laws require drivers to use hands-free communications while driving. A lot of road accidents do happen when people hold a phone in one hand talking and grip the steering wheel with the other hand.

The more I read about wireless bluetooth headsets, the more I was getting convinced that I've got to have one. For a multi-tasking mom that's me, the only way to go is wireless, I guess. But no, I won't give in to the temptation to get myself a bluetooth headset no matter how good that sounds. Unless I can find another income-generating activity to fund it. I made myself a promise never to buy wants with my active income...And I'm keeping it. I should have a Bluetooth dongle though.

Nice post you got here. I'd like to read something more concerning this matter. The only thing I would like to see on that blog is a few pictures of some gizmos.

SSS Salary Loan Online Application

I checked my SSS online a while ago to see the total contributions I have paid so far after 12 years as an employed member and 2 years as voluntary member. When I was logged in, I explored a bit until I came to Transactions menu. I was surprised when I saw Salary Loan Application link. I swear it wasn't there the last time I checked. That was a couple of months ago though. I was thinking, is it now possible to apply for salary loan online? That would be great, I said to myself. Not that I planned to take out a loan from SSS now or in the next few days but I thought it's a great step on SSS part to make members do select transactions online. So, out of curiosity, I clicked on the link and the max amount I can loan was shown together with my home address where the check would be sent. There was an option to update my home address. Then towards the bottom was the Submit button. I was thinking, is it REALLY possible to apply for salary loan online? Well, there's only one

Just a Quick Post!

Just want to make a quick post today before I'll bury myself with work. Early this morning, I was surprised to be awaken by my son's soft voice in my ear whispering, "Mommy, mommy, today's your birthday, right?" "Is it?", me asking in my still-groggy state. I was so sleepy I couldn't care much about what he has just said or gonna do. "Yes, and I have something for you." He went away and I was off to dreamy land again. Or so I thought. I felt something soft and cool brushing my nose. I tried to ignore it and forcefully closed my eyes, trying to shut myself off the world. But it won't just go away! So i opened my eyes. Do you know what I see? My son, with a bunch of alugbati leaves in his hands. "Flowers for you", he said. "Mama (his grandma) said it's your birthday today. Can't we go to the sea afterwards? You shouldn't go to work because you're having your birthday." My heart jumped with joy I hugged

Another Quick Post

I am too slow again to update this blog. Well, I've been very busy but I am loving every bit of it! I'll make this short and hurried post before I'll get busy (again) preparing for my son's 5th birthday party later today. I got myself enrolled in Globe's Flexi plan last week that comes with a Samsung 3G phone and an extension prepaid phone of my choice. I've been a prepaid user ever since so why the switch? I consume so much prepaid load in a month for calling and texting my husband in Surigao, communicating with my brother who manages my internet cafe in Initao, texting my officemates, friends and family so I find it a good idea to switch to postpaid. At least now I don't have to worry to run out of load in the middle of a call, which is handy during emergencies. With Globe postpaid I can also share a load and subscribe to their unlimited texting promos. I went grocery shopping yesterday for my son's birthday and I used my oDesk card to pay for my bill.
