In this rather late post, I would like to enumerate some of the blogging events in 2010 that I have been a part of, or at least have heard about, last year. I said late because I already made a post on the two of them. Anyway, these are some of the blogging events that [...]

I have so far been successful in warding off the curiosity to play Farmville, Fishville, Mafia Wars, Restaurant City and Café World. But guess what got me? It’s the good ol’ fashion Bejeweled Blitz game. Yes, the plain game that we used to play in Yahoo! is now also in Facebook and is so far [...]
