Story 1: Java is becoming the new Cobol

– Despite the H-1B visa limit of 65,000, the real total of visas issued to highly skilled workers is closer to 400,000 annually, according to the feds. That, say some critics, may mean that the law is being abused.

Story 9: BI is dead; long live BI
– With three of the largest competitors in the field taken over by software giants, you’d think that the best days of the business intelligence market were over. You’d be wrong.
Story 10: Balance of power shifts to software buyers
– Despite the wave of consolidation sweeping the industry, buyers have actually gained more leverage than ever when it comes to making deals with their vendors, notes a PricewaterhouseCoopers analysis.

4:30 pm -6:00 pm this day we had our general assembly for the discussion of events on this semester particularly the Financial report, calendar of activities updates, PSITS ITE week activities, discuss about PAASCU next year,Silicongulf activities and many other essential matters. We consider it as the most successful ITE General Assembly this year. Not to mention our unprofessionally in time management but the outcome of the assembly. Ordinarily, students attend general assembly for the sake of the attendance, but this time, though there are so many errors and bugs happened a while ago like unprepared programs, speeches and presentation, but still the flow of the programs were followed, considering our heroes of the day Ms. Catherine Remolleno, save us, who substitute the assigned Emcees since, the ASSIGNED EMCEES not there and late to come, Mr. Marlo Noval for letting us borrow his laptop with matching "mapansin jud ang wallpaper galore!". Successful? Because everybody participated in the open forum, they burst out their problem regarding financial matters and our functions. I am happy about it, though there are circumstances that feel me bad, but really, we appreciated it and at last! I feel that we are in the world of POLITICS, in the point that we now know student matters against us. We admit that if we would not utter things that what was going on to the program, if we still zip our mouth, we are not effective or we are being unfair to them. I’m really happy about the upshot, and we are expecting more challenges and blessings for the next general assembly. We the officers would like to extend our appreciation to Mr. Exander Barrios and Mr. Jerry Flores who facilitate us to be existent Officers since the First semester. For all of these experiences we have, having this position and responsibility we are more aware and the ability to grasp the real human race we are facing. We’re so lucky for these experiences. More challenges waited for us… So … MUST BREATH MORE!lol

I thought blog is just a cyber notebook that you can write all your thoughts and just wrote wrote until you have a new post. That’s what my first thought of blogging. But as a tour my friend’s blogs and got farther because of the links I clicked, I realized that blogging is not just about posting write ups about your personal life. But little did I know, Blog is beyond to what I think it is.and my favorite part about blogging is you can earn money.. hehehe.. But as far as us bloggers concern, blogging is a way to share information to other people.
