Blog Club

Kababata ko si Ate Kai (nope, hindi yung "kababata" as described ng Diksyunaryo Ni Lolo).

She informed me last week about this blog group she and her friends set up and simply called BlogClub. Check it out if you have time to spare. I believe they recently created a forum for bloggers to interact with each other. It's a little world after all, so give it a hit.

Anyway, she made me answer a couple of questions and these were posted on BlogClub as profile entries of their members. My answers were posted here but if you're lazy enough to check the link iL just post it here anyway... catch!


where do you blog? [specify blog host]?
got a Friendster blog but I haven't updated since my last entry which was posted the same time as it was created. I'm sticking with blogspot.

why did you choose that host?
i started as an outright idiot in blogging and it just happened that blogger was the first host that appeared when you type "blog" in Google. Try mo.

how often do you blog?
when i feel like it. around four times a week on an average.

when did you start blogging?
on a sluggish and boring weekday, early February, 2005.

how did you find out about blogging?
saw Ala Paredes's blog (who doesn't?) and I researched what this blog was all about. Initially, after learning what web logs are, I wanted to start one just to keep track of the progress I am making with my hobby projects which is miniature painting (Warhammer 40,000). But apparently, it still ended up as a personal one. Ang sarap lang talagang pag-tsismisan ng sarili mong buhay.

what makes blogging different from a written journal?
definitely, the convenience of having not to literary carry/worry/keep a blog always will outweigh every advantages a written journal has. syempre, bukod sa magka-iba ang spelling. =)

what time do you blog and why?
mostly during my breaktime here at work. that's midnight for you normal Earthlings.

how many blogmates do you have?
*tinungo ang blog at nagbilang* technically, trenta y nueve. At sa aking palagay darami pa ang miyembro ng kulto sa mga darating na araw.

whose blogs do you visit everytime you are online?
blogs ni Kassy, Tin, Justice League (tropa blog namin), and Jill (Barenaked). Links are at my blog. Syempre.

name the top 5 blogs you've read and what makes them so different if not special?
5. Justice League - syempre blog ng tropa. andyan lahat ng mga kabulastugan namin.

4. Kassy - she has two blogs actually and i like her inspirational thoughts (not to mention that she manages a band. galing.)

3. Jill (Barenaked) - astig. enough said.

2. Bianca Gonzalez - she's such a sweetheart. on and off cam.

1. VJ Ala - well, the princess of Philippine blog. what else?


what topics, subjects, issues do you like to blog about?
anything that comes to mind basically. so far i have entries about environmental protection, religious and inspirational viewpoints, responsible sex advocacies, and "free the political prisoners" propagandisms.

which site[s] do you consider most helpful to bloggers?
unkymoods. it will help bloggers keep track of their father's everyday moodswings.

aside from the tagboard, what other things does your blog have? [e.g hit counter, horoscopes. Etc]
aside from the entries too, ayt? mayrong tagatingin kung ilan ang tambay, may listahan kung sino ang mga tambay na ito, may maliit na sulok para sa ritrato ko, may isang gilid para sa mga ritrato ng halo-halo, may sisidlan ng mga paborito kong bisitahing website, tsaka may anik anik sa tuktok na umiibo-ibo.

what makes you read someone else's blog?
kapag astig yung entry tsaka sapat para bigyang atensyon.

what do you do to attract other bloggers to read your blog?
i don't intend to "attract" bloggers at the most basic meaning of the word but I'm at least keeping the blog "cooL" so as to reflect my personality and my attitude that I want to project on my entries. Thus, I can give it justice when I say, "my blog is me" and I do my blog layout as to more reflect myself.

am I making sense or sleep-deprivation's kicking me up again? =D


Ayun. Ganda pa ng profile pics ko sa kanila.

Tada!

Work of Art!

I like to thank DD of the Justice League for the wonderful image! You have an eye for art, bro. Keep it ups!
