Okay, so I wasn’t too upset when our company started to block websites. It’s normal to block MySpace, Facebook, Friendster and other social networking sites, but yesterday, I tried to check out the class schedule for NYSC (my gym), but instead I saw this ugly blue “BLOCKED” page. Also, it said category “Health”. Apparently people at the big company who bought us don’t want us to be healthy! Today, I was able to access Banana Republic, but when I tried to check my website e-mail, I was greeted by the ugly blocked page once again. Apparently my site is listed under the category “Games”, which it is not! So weird! I believe employees spend more time trying to find a site that isn’t banned, so doesn’t that make them less productive?

Apparently we are almost using up all our bandwidth, so this is probably the main reason why they are blocking a lot of websites. I hope they never block GMail. I’ll be so upset if they do. What would I do all day? Hopefully they will let us have our websites back soon.

In other exciting news, it snowed for exactly 5 minutes in NYC today. It was pretty exciting. I actually thought I’d go through a winter without seeing any snow. The big topic of discussion on the tech sites today was the iPhone. What are your thoughts about it? I’d like to see it up close and personal. I have no desire to have such an expensive phone. I’d be afraid it’d get stolen or I’d drop it like my w600i. It looks a little too complicated for me. I just wonder how many people will actually shell out $400 or $500 for it! We’ll find out soon. Apple is too expensive for me. I’m happy with my iPod and Macbook.
