  • Rekindling Thank You Day 2009

    I wrote this two years ago. Pinoy bloggers were slowly becoming mainstream. There wasn’t much going on in terms of these ‘blog events.’ Everyone was excited. Thank You Day was big. I must admit, though it was certainly a below the line event built by Kraft (Toblerone), the message was strong. My friend Knox attended…

  • And the winner of our Sassa Giveaway is ….

    Congratulations to Didi Tiu for winning the most off raffle I’ve ever done in my life! 🙂 I’ll email you the details so you can claim the prize from Rosie. Yay! Congratulations. What a perfect gift for the newlywed! 🙂 The video was made using Screenflow for Mac 🙂

  • ‘Live Stream’ Explained for the Philippine Blog Awards

    This event is dappled in awesomeness. We’re trying something new this year — a live stream coverage of the event over the Internet courtesy of Flippish. If you’re expecting fixed point webcam quality work with a 30 second delay, well we’re out to prove you wrong. The live coverage has similar production value as on…

  • Guess Who: UNO September 2009

    Tadah! We’ve got the cover up on our Facebook page and the blog as well!

  • New Nike+ Sport Bands retail for P3,295

    Nike+ runners will be glad to know that the new sport bands have been upgraded. The new bands come in three colors — purple, yellow, and red interiors and the LCD screen now comes with a white background — this was a chore to use before, especially when running at night, because the screen wasn’t…

  • The Non Sequitur Sassa Bikini Giveaway

    About a year and a half ago I did a PR shoot for Sassa / Barbizon for the broadsheets. It was at this time I became infatuated with huge lenses, and borrowed Markku’s f/2.8 70-200 wonderment (oops that sounded wrong!) to shoot the girls. It was there I met Rosie Unson who did their brand…

  • Gabe Mercado’s ‘Bagong Gising’ Video Blog

    Caught up with Gabe Mercado during the Apple Snow Leopard launch. Over lunch, we discussed his latest masterpiece, “Bagong Gising” (www.bagonggising.com)is a daily 2 minute videocast with only one premise: Posting a video is the first thing I do every morning. Walang hilamos. Walang ligo. Walang sipilyo. Also, Walang wiwi. This is perhaps the least…

  • Snow Leopard retails for P1,690 in the Philippines

    Truth be told I wasn’t into the hype for the Snow Leopard announcement as it seemed more like a ploy to get consumers to shell out 29 USD for what could have been a software update. I’ll tell you why — the very fact that Snow Leopard focuses more on “having a faster Mac” after…

  • UNO’s Funky Online Challenge! aka UR FOC!!

    So here’s a social experiment. We shot it impromptu right after the cooking throwdown in Serendra the other day. So here’s how it works — it’s sorta like a bet with Erwin Romulo. If I can get the UNO Facebook page up to 1,000 friends or more (it’s at about 600–something as of last count)…

  • WWII Wreck Diving and Barracuda Lake in Coron, Palawan

    Barracuda Lake and Wreck Diving in Coron, Palawan from jayvee Fernandez on Vimeo. I summarized one memorable weekend into 3 minutes. It was hard, but I did it! This was my first time to experience wreck diving in Coron, as well as enjoying the reverse thermocline “spa” inside Barracuda Lake. Good friends, great dives, what…
