I was late. I was preoccupied with the publishing of my book, with my book launching, marketing my book, etc., that I totally forgot about the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2011 writing project.

It used to be just but a dream… a wishful thinking… something that I never really thought would happen… not by a long-shot! But fate knows better. And what was but a dream became real… and I was able to see it… to be it. I was able to live my dream. I had my [...]

Because it’s my birthday! That is why today, I’m gonna lay back… stretch my feet, maybe raise them up on the couch… I believe, I deserve this. Got too much on my plate as of late, and believe me, the toll it’s taken on my sanity… or whatever left of it, is unimaginable! So now, [...]

Has Friendster given up? This is the impression I got when I received my copy of the email from the social network. It says they are deleting most of the data that were uploaded on the site during the pre-Facebook era – photos, blogs, etc. Friendster would only be leaving basic profile information, which I [...]

I am not really a techie, that is why the news about Globe launching its 4G mobile technology did not really excite me at first as much as it would a techie. But being a blogger, I am still curious as to what this buzz about the new Globe technology is all about. As expected, [...]
