I have been publishing a list of top universities in Philippines since 2008, and still I will be publishing this years “Top Universities in the Philippines 2010“. But I know that its still early to tell which schools and colleges are really the top ones, instead I will give the Top Universities in the Philippines for 2010 based on Web Rankings. Don’t worry I will still update this post whenever the news comes out or if someone have source of info, you can drop a comment and tell so that we can update with the appropriate list.

Watch Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto online live this November 14, because if Manny will win the bout he will be the ever Boxing Champ to hold 7 Weight Division title belt in his hands. But It may not be so easy for the reason that Miguel Cotto has trained hard for this battle although their team is worried if Cotto will pass the weight limit.

A couple of day ago I received my most awaited Google Wave invitation to see, experience, be excited, and somewhat to be disappointed. Why? I’ll tell you later. First, we will discuss about the invitation. As I remember I signed up for a Google Wave Invitation in the official page many week ago. Just imagine that, I waited a long time to received my invitation, but I understand that there are a lot of people requesting for an invitation. And because of that I consider myself lucky.

Typhoon Ondoy hits Metro Manila heavily almost all streets are flooded, literally. And not only Metro Manila, the nearby provinces are also stormed by Ondoy. As per the news, there are many casualties and damages done by Ondoy. Facebook, Plurk, Twitter and also the news sites are my sources on news as of now because the TV networks are not yet releasing the latest news today (they released some major news but thats yesterday). Many are pleading for donations for those who are affected by this storm. I’ll search for the link on which you can donate, the funds will proceed to the National Red Cross. Here are some of the pictures and videos that you might want to see.

As we all know that the news about President Barrack Obama’s School Speech is all over the headlines in the past days, and also some groups who are saying that the speech is a way to foist “socialist ideology” on schoolchildren. But the White House released the transcript of the full speech in text on the web. And this is the part of the speech where people are questioning why would he include the founders of Twitter, Facebook and Google in the speech:

Guys, beware of this phishing scam, lately I recieved an email from this unknown man to me. Saying that I should reactivate my feedburner subscription to this site (www.alvindimla.com). What the heck?! I AM THE OWNER OF THIS BLOG. Definitely he email the wrong guy. You may ask me why did I think that this email is a phishing one? Its because first, I am the owner of this site. Second, I have full control over my feedburner subscriptions so I’m not worried about it. And third, the url of the feedburner link he is giving to me is wrong.

Are you participating Earth Hour on Saturday? And did you think that Earth Hour will save Earth? I think should make your minds work harder see whats really happening during Earth Hour and what will happen in the following years. Maybe you could not see this right but this Earth Hour thing will not really save earth and this is going to be just a regular event every year that everyone celebrates without thinking whats really the purpose.
