My Blogosphere: The Current and the Past

July 18, 2010

Despite the numerous projects that I've worked on, there is a pattern to all this chaos and this has always been my focus since. A few things stuck out and one is blogging (or writing as others would prefer to call it). My passion to share knowledge to those who care to listen has always been there from the start. I've been very fortunate to have been given the chance to do so through this medium.

Social Games Guide: Mall World, Ranch Town, Birdland

May 23, 2010

With my involvement in the social gaming arena for the past month, I never thought in a million years that I would be writing guides and tips. A push from a friend made me realize that writing about games (even if people think it’s not “professional” and “a waste of time”) is still writing. That being said, I am starting a weekly social games update to provide links of game guides and tips that I’ve written. This is the first issue.

My Career as a Casual Game Writer

April 25, 2010

My first blog [...]

How to Spot Comment Spam

October 23, 2009

If you blog often then you are aware that bots (and obviously humans) are capable of putting comments on a post.  In as much as you would like to receive legitimate comments and start a conversation, your comments list is now dominated with “Comment Spam”. Thinking that most bloggers would know this, apparently not a lot [...]

A Step to Online Advertising

April 16, 2009

It is amazing how Web 2.0 tools have been sprouting like mushrooms these days.  More so if you include advertising in the formula. Just found an alternative (and could be the next best thing) advertising medium that makes a lot of sense. Introducing Magpie, utilizing Twitter to advertise your products and services.  It’s fantastic actually and [...]

Different Strokes for Different Folks

November 14, 2008

Writing is something I want to do for the rest of my life.  It’s just sad that I only decided to focus on it very recently.  The first time I wrote and loved it was about 20+ years ago.  I wrote my first short story.  To this day I wonder if I’ll ever get to [...]
