Pinoy Music Stream

The Philippine Music air waves with what is popular. The genre ‘pop music’ is actually a broad and general term and does not necessarily in tune with boy bands and Britney Spears. There was a time when alternative rock becomes the pop, the popular. Pinoy Music is like that. Similar to Pinoy TV Bandwagon, Pinoy Music Stream also works in almost the same way. You ears will eventually become tired of listening to the same type of music over and over again in the radio and in music television channels.

In this post, I would like to draw a line between the Pinoy Music Stream and OPM or the Original Pinoy Music. Pinoy Music Stream can be any song, a remake/cover or an original from the foreign land or ours as opposed to OPM which is originally written by a Filipino composer.

    Without the reference below, I would open a Microsoft Word, check on the Symbol tab and insert the desired character to the document. Thanks to Me Sweet.

    I love fonts. I have more or less 1440 fonts. The problem I have now is that I have to click and to open one-by-one how does the font look like when typed. Then, I came across with this site that will display the font in an uncommon fashion… “The quick brown fox”. Check Better Fonts.

    For the computer programmers, here’s a simple site perhaps that can solve one’s immediate need to check machine problems and exercises for Basic, Javascript, HTML and C++. Visit Code IDE.

    For the Linux evangelists and users, here’s the factsheet on the equivalent open source programs from LinuxEq.com
