“Technology drives the modern world, and the Philippines is fast becoming a technology-driven society. Tech-savvy Filipinos desire the latest and coolest devices, from mobile phones to digital cameras to flat-screen TVs. For these enthusiasts and buyers, Consumer Electronics Live! Manila is the premiere technology event of the year. CEL Manila is the first and the [...]
My long-time friend, Avel Manansala of General Santos City, invited me to be one of the judges for his blog contest, What Air Supply Song Are You? (creative, don’t you think?). So I dutifully read through around 20+ entries, thinking inwardly that it was going to be at least amusing.
Air Supply was (probably) all the [...]
I was having my favorite cup o’ joe over at Kangaroo Coffee about a couple of months ago when I was struck by an idea for a domain name. Checking if it was still available, I couldn’t believe but was very delighted that wp-evangelist.com was still up for grabs! So I acquired it right then [...]
It’s a truly exhilarating experience after having put together two successful WordCamp Philippines events! The preparations for the second WordCamp in the country, held in Makati City last 19 September, was actually stressing me out to the point that I wasn’t getting my bread-and-butter work done properly the last couple of months. But, with the [...]
I arrived in Makati today, with WordCamp Philippines 2009 organizing teammates, Chattee & Jaime. The two other members of the team, Lyle & Brendel, will be arriving this Friday. The last time I was in the nation’s capital was many months ago, so before diving into work, I spent time with my siblings, Jake & [...]
I have just nominated two of my own blogs in the 2009 Philippine Blog Awards: Davao Delicious, under the Food & Beverages category; and Ang Dabawenyo, under the Mindanao Destination Blog special awards category.
In this year’s PBA, a set of four special awards will be given to Mindanao blogs (and another set for Visayas blogs). [...]
Today I’m in General Santos City, but on my way back to Davao in a few hours. I spent the weekend here with blogger-friends, Lyle & Brendel, to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and to help out Bariles Republic’s Avel M. in his local blogging efforts.
Marz, happy birthday again!!
I’m happy to say that Lyle and I [...]
OLX Free Classifieds is the first such online service that has successfully merged “Web 2.0″ functionality with user-friendliness and simplicity. Think of it as Craigslist in the new era of the World Wide Web. What’s more, it’s now strongly established in the Philippines.
Once registered — a very quick and painless procedure, by the way — [...]
9th of September 2009, a day of no particular significance other than its nifty abbreviation: 09-09-09. Come to think of it, this kind of date contraction comes only once every hundred years. To celebrate 09-09-09, I did 9 noteworthy things today: (1) I started a major online project; (2) bought a new domain that I [...]
Been über-busy these past couple of weeks (WordCamp, MBS3, etc.) that I haven’t been blogging at all… My food blog has a backlog now, and my Davao blog’s hardly getting updated anymore. Sheesh. Hopefully I can get back on track soon!
Several Davao bloggers and I had the privilege to meet in person the U.S. ambassador to the Philippines, Kristie Kenney, this morning at the Ateneo de Davao University college library. At one point, we were talking about traveling across Mindanao, so I mentioned to her about Matt’s visit to Davao in September 2008.
Me: “Matt Mullenweg [...]
If you set your blog’s timezone in WordPress (e.g., GMT +8) before WP2.8.1, make sure to go back to your dashboard’s general options and update this setting. I don’t know why, but WP has now junked GMT in favor of UTC. When I checked, my blogs’ timezone setting had become UTC +8 (which does not [...]
I got a comment yesterday from one of my Japanese-blog readers, and I translate: “I’m waiting for your next article!” And my last post before today was dated 25 January 2008. So, to inspire myself to go back to updating 真ん丸空間, I changed WordPress themes, as I am wont to do.
Since Maru’s Space is a [...]
