Welcome to A Bugged Life, a blog that chronicles the new media industry in the Philippines. It also quasi-chronicles my personal life as my work is pretty much my life. At times it also chronicles things I like to eat and memories of people I am fond of. This is essentially a personal blog, with habitual efforts to write about technology, my first love.
Enjoy!
About the Author
He currently serves as chief editor for Splashpress Media and community manager for the global 9rules network. He lives on the Internet, and has thus invested in more tubes.
He has served as juror for Interactive Media in 2007 and 2008 for the Anvil Awards (PRSP). He gives out the trophies.
He built BlogBank in 2007, a Philippine-based blog advertising network.
He is an adjunct faculty at the Asian Institute of Management. He teaches Internet Marketing and enjoys it.
He is one of the founders of the Philippine Blog Awards. Blogging is cool these days.
He is also Technology and Online Editor for UNO Magazine. It is his first true foray into a men’s magazine, and despite the many requests of friends to “bring them to the cover shoots” he doesn’t have the luxury, nor the interest to sit in.
He holds a MA in Development Education from the University of Asia and the Pacific. He is an educator by degree, but frolics between the academe and consultancy positions for various marketing projects.
He loves his Krups espresso machine. And his charcoal grill.
He has written, at least once for the following local publications, and has devoted blood sweat and tears on a number of them as well, on varying degrees:
MANUAL
CHALK
ROGUE Magazine
Mobile Philippines
PC Magazine Philippines
GAME! Magazine
Transit
UNO Magazine
Playground Magazine
He is a student of life, lover of all things geeky.
He manages contributes regularly to Forever Geek and Apple Gazette.
He enjoys diving (with reckless abandon) to depths of about 110 feet into the reefs and wrecks of Puerto Galera and Anilao. He loves the ocean. He believes the Philippines is pretty much like her reefs, where her true beauty is hidden beneath the surface.
He likes his steaks medium well.
