I signed up for the May 9, 2009 iBlog5: The 5th Philippine Blogging Summit. It will be held at the Malcolm Theater, UP College of Law, UP Diliman, from 8 am to 5 pm.
I remember the time I attended the first iBlog event. I gave a talk on podcasting. Boy, time sure does fly so quickly, and now I’m curious about how things have changed over the past 4 years.
Do you want to have your own WordPress-powered blog… for free? No, I’m not talking about the free blogs offered at WordPress.com (which does not allow you to commercialize your free blog). I’m talking about your very own, full control, monetize it any way you want blog that’s powered by WordPress.

I’m trying out the Sandugo Twister rubber sandals, which the people at Toby’s say is an upgrade of the Storm version.

A kundiman is a Filipino love song traditionally sung by a man wooing the woman of his dreams. Sometimes, the young man will be accompanied by friends as he serenades (harana) the woman in the evening. With the familiar strains of the guitar, the suitor pours out his emotions through a song, usually one which speaks of loneliness or even lack of self-worth.
Some Pinoy bloggers trooped to SM Marikina yesterday afternoon (Feb. 28, 2009) to test the free WiFi service. It looks like you’ll get the strongest signal somewhere near the third floor near the Food Court (4 out of 5 bars, based on an Acer Aspire One). On the second floor, near The French Baker, the signal is 3 out of 5 bars.
Here’s the second in a series of fortuitous songwriting tips and lessons courtesy of Gary Granada and that GMA Kapuso issue. In this episode, which was distributed in the form of an MP3 file attached to an email, Gary Granada speaks about the significance of a single word.
For some, a word is just a word. Yet when you set it to music, your choice of lyrics can affect the musicality of the piece.
Chanced upon Jon Limjap’s Gary Granada airs complaint vs. GMA Kapuso, the New Media way (after reading Jon’s Twitter message), and listened to the 14:28 audiocast.
Learned a few things about composing songs, musical theory, and the basic elements of musical composition.
