A Bugged Life 2008 Live Test
So the philosophy behind the new design was that I wanted ABL 2008 to be more personality driven than content driven. That sort of required me to think about what I wanted to communicate to my readers. Eventually I had decided to stick to the vectors rather than have my face plastered all over my…

Winston Damarillo does it again with Tech Bars
Last year, I partied at two of Winston Damarillo’s events. The first was a geek cocktail night at M Cafe and the second was the grand launch of Mor.PH, his umpteenth project.

RUN the DAY the ENTIRE WORLD RUNS. 8.31.08
The Nike+ Virtual Human Race. Clock 10K on 8.31.08. Slowly, I’ve been trying to get back into the groove of running after my food poisoning bout last month. So I’m well again and fast gaining weight from the carbs I’ve been eating to keep my stomach in check for the last 3 weeks. So now…

So much for me asking Roderick Paulate to move over — Rick Astley finally meets Roderick Paulate, the “Rick Astley” of the Philippines! There’s a very interesting back story to this involving Gabe Mercado, Tals and JC Medina putting up a Facebook group asking Kuya Dick to become the front act. The rest is history:…

Meeting Rick Astley: Words can barely describe
I’d been ignoring my phone for the better part of the day as I was preoccupied over finalizing the venue for the blog awards and making my way through press conference after press conference. It was only a few seconds – but when Alora asked me if I had gotten her plurk, I had to…
