Acer Philippines launches the World's Thinnest Notebook: Aspire Swift 7


As an online writer and blogger who’s always on the go, if I’d be given the chance to have my dream gadget, that would have to be Acer Philippines’ latest notebook which is touted as the world’s thinnest notebook to date from the Aspire series called Aspire Swift 7 or Aspire S7. Just as it always does, Acer never fails to amaze, delight and bring some sense of awe to tech savvy patrons as well as loyal Acer consumers by coming up with elite innovations. The new Acer Aspire “S” Series notebook is another gem of a gadget that exudes not just elegance and technological revolution but it is ergonomic as well. 
Aspire S3




Considered as the world’s thinnest laptop at 9.98mm, the Aspire S7 has all the USB Type-C ports you need for work. It’s unbelievably thin because it’s even thinner than a centimetre! Yet despite its light frame and thinness, it is packed and loaded with 9-hour battery life and has a high-powered 7th Gen Intel® Core processor. So an Aspire S7 allows you to go and work beyond the average work day, it is a great help if you need to do some work overtime. And is really good news for writers like me who had deadlines to beat.

Netizen vs. LBC complains: The truth will always come out


Have you guys heard of the latest issue concerning a netizen whose complains against LBC were posted and reshared by people. I am appalled at how the Internet has been used by malicious individuals to smear the reputation of people, companies and organizations. I condemn the spread of online hate campaign because these campaigns stack the cards (sometimes even fictitious cards) against a person or group of persons who are unable to defend themselves. I wish there were a system where those who spread lies and hate online against innocent people can be deterred by the threat of punishment by fines or public humiliation. 

One of these recent attacks have been against LBC Express, a courier and logistics company. Some netizens have posted attacks against LBC for a variety of reasons, some valid while some are not. One case in particular is a netizen named Bakura Pagaduan.

Pagaduan claims to have a pair shoes and other items were sent to him by a relative via LBC. When the box arrived, Pagaduan claims that the box showed signs of pilferage and that the shoes were gone. He went to the local LBC branch in his area, the one that handled the delivery. Pagaduan raised his voice against the local staff who only responded by offering that a formal complaint be filed. Pagaduan refused and instead turned to social media. This post went viral because a forum on Facebook called Tambayan ni Berto had their forum members shared and reshared the post to all their friends including members and non-forum members as well. 

LBC reached out to Pagaduan to ask him the details of his package. LBC's investigators learned later that Pagaduan signed the delivery receipt which would have proven that he received the package in good condition. Eventually, Pagaduan demanded and received a compensation of P2,000 for the alleged lost items.
