i miss the days when the internets was just one big social. no SEO, no blog advertising, no PR jobs. when bloggers were diarists…
… and chatting lead to EB’s (decent and/or otherwise). selling out was non-existent, and even bad writers had passion.

Blunder of the day: I referred to the new soap on abs-cbn, Agua Bendita, as “Agua Vida”. I thought the twins were named Agua & Vida. lol.

  1. Thank you for the link back to my article on “Why should you teach your child to read early?”

    It seem to have missed out on too many opportunities while my own children were growing, that now I want to make up with my ‘apos’. Didn’t realize that so many others in my generation, as well as my children’s, now see the importance of maximizing every child’s potential from age 0-6 years so that they can meet this challenge of the information age.

    I’ve been watching your very useful site for quite some time, and have discovered so many interesting and exceptional Pinoy websites here.

    Thank you so much for the tremendous boost you have given the Pinoy online community.

    • Thanks for dropping by Vikky!

      I found your blog article through a tweet and I loved it so much I had to retweet it and share it too here at my blog.

      I think what you said there about babies being infinetly better than adults at learning a language is absolutely spot on! Every parent who wants to raise their child well should read your article so here is the link again. :D
