New blog on WordPress evangelism
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 [...]
My blogs’ logos
I’d long wanted to get logos for my various blogs, but other stuff got in the way (like, how to eke out a living and such). Then the other day I chanced upon an old CorelDraw file of the Davao Blogspace logo, which was created by Eric Su. Although it’s nothing new in the blogosphere [...]
Google’s PageRank, bad for PR?
As I’m not deeply into SEO and such, I kept mum when the hullabaloo over the see-sawing of Google’s PageRank system washed over the blogosphere late last month. This blog — after having been pinned with a PR4 from 0 in May — suddenly went one notch down, and then back up again after a [...]
New blog for T.U.S.
Seeing the need for an online presence — and perhaps a group image — the bloggers known as The Usual Suspects have finally come up with a blog site: http://tus.davaoblogs.com. With all the references to “The Usual Suspects” in various blogs now floating around, it wouldn’t hurt to have a site to link to. ;) [...]
Basics of writing critiques
This isn’t new — in fact, I’ve known about this since high school when I attended a journalism workshop. I’m talking about the fundamental guidelines on writing critiques or reviews: “K-K-K”. Or, kick-kiss-kick kiss-kick-kiss. In other words, something positive, then negative, then positive again. Let’s suppose you’re blogging about another blog. Start off with what [...]
I’m joining the Mindanao Bloggers Summit!
Well of course I’m joining the MBS1 — I’m with the organizing team! We call ourselves The Usual Suspects: Andrew, Dom, Jun, Marc, Migs, Ria & yours truly. And the Summit’s chairman and initiator is Hon. Peter T. Laviña. I’d like to take this chance to thank the sponsors, without whom we wouldn’t go very [...]
A twisted blog awards gig
It would seem that, after landing the top place (side-by-side with Aileen Apolo) in Janette Toral’s Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs in 2007 writing project, Paolo Mendoza of The Philosophical Bastard is flexing some blog muscle to prove just how influential he really is. Bravo, I say! What better way to do this — seeing [...]
Blog interviewed
Recenly, Mike Thomas of BlogInterviewer.com emailed me and said that a kind soul had recommended my blog to be interviewed. Whoever you are, thanks very much!! That site is a unique service that helps blogs get promoted through link-love and ratings. What’s good about BlogInterviewer.com, as far as I know, is that it brings out [...]
Inspiring others to blog
Last night I took time off to help out a good friend with some of the more technical aspects of blogging. After maintaining his blog for some time now, Mandaya Moore decided it was time to take the next step — the one that’s beyond merely writing articles. Specifically, he was curious about MyBlogLog. So [...]
