In time for the release of the 2007 Bar Exam results today, this website got alot of hits due to the entry I posted a year ago, which is for the 2006 exams. I know no one personal who took the 2007 exams, so I didn’t blog about it. Nevertheless, the 2007 exam results can be found here, here and here.
1992 R. Magsaysay Awardee – Washington SyCip
A lengthy but interesting read about the biography of Washington Sycip and the history of SGV & Co. Referred to me by Marky.

Sidenotes in Deuts.NET
While I was cleaning my site for broken links, here are some I learned:
- This is what zooomr has become. It’s supposed to compete with flickr, but how can it compete when your photos once hosted in them are gone. This is what actually happened to some of my photos in zooomr. Those were not the ‘masterpiece’ type of photos, but hey, they serve as a documentation of my life. Poor photos, poor photo sharing site.
- News sites to avoid linking to when creating posts: Yahoo! News and Manila Bulletin. Why? Because they can’t maintain static pages for their news articles for quite a long period of time, a year or two you’ll find broken links in your blog posts.
- Successful .html implementation for my permalinks. All posts now appear to have a .html in the end. This will definitely affect search engine referrals and ultimately traffic. But hopefully, all will be back to normal soon. Nevertheless, I’ve prepared a friendly 404 landing page just in case one would get lost, with the related posts plugin to refer them to the nearest, possibly related, article.
An Interesting Early Photography
Neatorama outlines the interesting history of photography. It’s also interesting to note that the first ever photograph was a grainy one taken with an exposure time of 8 hours. The most expensive photograph, taken in 1904, was priced at US$2.9 million in 2006.
