Basic SEO Kung Fu for The Newbie by the Newbie:

Hi there! If you got to this post through a search in Google, please let me know by leaving your comments at the end of this post. I would appreciate it if you can tell me what keywords you typed as well. God knows I’m dying to hear that. And I’d faint instantly if I ever even see five, yes five comments confirming that. You see, more than anything known to me, I think this blog is more an experiment than an outlet of personal thoughts, opinions, reviews and frustrations. Of course, I’d like to believe that all I care about in terms of this blog is all the fun I get in telling “mini-stories” of my experiences that most likely don’t matter to a lot of people (heck, maybe even to me..lol) but subconsciously, I feel that I also blog to test myself and see if “an old dog really is incapable of learning new tricks”. For those of you still clueless as to Read more

The 2008 SONA (State of the Nation Address) is over and done. What now? If you don’t mind, I’d like to quote and examine a few statements given at the SONA a follows:

Many in this great hall live privileged lives and exert great influence in public affairs. I am accessible to you, but I spend time every day with the underprivileged and under represented who cannot get a grip on their lives in the daily, all-consuming struggle to make ends meet.”

Oh, you bet. Many. Many of which, also, I’m quite positive, do not care one bit of what you, Madam President have to say in today’s SONA. And this is all because they are part of those people you identify in this statement below. Read more

I do. It’s so ironic when something that happens only ONCE a year can be so tiring to listen to. Tomorrow’s SONA (State of the Nation Address) to be presented (or read–pun intended) by President Arroyo has not even happened yet but as early as now, I already feel a certain level of “exhaustion”. Maybe that’s because I read a lot of news.

Nevertheless, you may say (yes, I know), if you’re really tired of it, then why write more about it? Well, you may have a point there, but that’s how I am with something I find tiring or sickening — I tend to think about it or talk about it pretty much everyday until my brain’s short term memory passes the buck to my long-term memory.

Okay, the President’s SONA is due Monday, July 28 — so I’ve heard. I wonder what sort of PowerPoint-style presentation we’ll see this time. I’m not a fan of the President’s SONA (State of the Nation Address) and I have to admit that I’ve seen only quite a few. If you want to know why, that’s because like many Filipinos, I grew tired of watching/listening to SONA’s. And why won’t I be? There are far more reasons not to watch it.

But in light of the crisis we have found ourselves in the midst of, it suddenly dawned on me that there is no better time to watch the SONA than on Monday. Read more

Now, this is wrong. Very wrong. I’m not a Gloria fan myself but hey, I won’t do such a thing. Not because I’m an elitist (how can I be an elitist when I don’t even belong to the “elite” myself?) but because it is indecent, downright dirty and stupid. I mean, come on people! How many times have we seen such display of rudeness? This is not helping anybody. In fact, it is adding problems to our already problematic country. If you want to do protests on the streets, then fine, do it anytime you want but do not destroy, and spray-paint public property! I understand you don’t like PGMA, I don’t like her either. But hasn’t it occured to these people’s minds that this is but a waste of time and energy? If you want change, Read more
