  • ICT 2007 Keynote Speech

    Below is the keynote delivered by General Serge Remonde on behalf of President GMA. I typed the whole thing from hard copy.

  • Why Magazines are still out there

    It is no secret that new media is not so slowly taking a bigger role in viral marketing efforts as well as being included in the business models of publishing companies.

  • Book Recommendations May 5 2007

    I’ve been scouring the bookstores for this particular title. All of the Fully Booked and Powerbooks branches in the metro either have never heard of the book or have it on order basis.

  • BuggedCast Episode 1 – “Lagalag”

    I was able to finally talk to Wil Pascual, the creator of the Lagalag Project, which is an experiment of sorts that features Filipinos around the world and two traveling moleskines. We enjoyed a good 20 minutes talking about photography, moleskines and blogs. This podcast was recorded using Gizmo and edited using GarageBand on a…
