My not-so-recent post about Google’s browser, Chrome , touts the browser as an OS competitor instead of just another browser. After having read about Ted Dziuba’s feedback on Michael Arrington’s post on TechCrunch , I decided to take another look from a different perspective on Chrome again, and Ted’s article does make more sense than Michael’s post.

So the cat is out of the bag. Google Chrome has been released. For those who haven’t heard of it, Google Chrome is a browser in which Google designed the way they think a browser should be: a desktop application for web applications.

Although there are websites that review movies, seldom have I found a website that reviews movie houses, especially in the Philippines. I’ve seen movies in different movie houses, some of which I often come back to because of the place, other times, of accessibility.
