Most stories now focus on this regular exercise of democracy. But you might have missed the story about the CICT chief resigning. We got that story on Inquirer.net. I think what you're looking for are business-oriented IT news that would show how this sector is moving. I think after the elections, you'll be reading more news from us. Happy blogging!<BR/><BR/>p.s. I would love to know what Google plans for the Philippines!
