Looking back, I just realized that I’ve been a loyal Nokia user all these years. (ahem-ahem, Nokia marketing peeps). I owned a total of 10 Nokia phones. Whew!
Here’s a short evolution of my personal phone purchases/acquisitions, how I started and what I have today (the N-77, which I plan to upgrade soon).

Well… here goes…. some of the random links, videos and what-have-you that I enjoyed the past couple of days.

This coming September 26, I want to celebrate my birthday differently.
Instead of a lavish party, with overflowing drinks, lotsa food, I will elect NOT to do that this year and instead celebrate it with our less fortunate brothers in Baseco, Tondo. I hope you can also help me HELP THEM.

After almost a year of posting 1 to 3 articles a day, I guess it’s time to reflect on the my most popular posts of 2007 and put in a few notes and analysis.
Of course, I wouldn’t have had this modicum of success without the support of all my dear readers. Especially those who are “loyal” enough to visit here regularly. I owe you big time. A million thanks to you all.
At any rate, my most popular post has over 19,000++ visits… man, that’s a lot.
The most popular posts and the reasons why after the jump…

Top bloggers like John Chow practically broke barriers with it (with his “evil” blog contests) and raised to the top of the Technorati charts (creating some issues with Google and adsense though).
That aside, there’s just something irresistible with FREE stuff on the Internet. Starting an online blog contest with the right attitude (and steps) will mean rewards for your blog.
Below are some tips to help you organize a successful blog contest (after the jump).

Our guild was not a popular one, we didn’t number in the hundreds and we weren’t even aggressive in PVP or Agit Sieges (but we got one in Payon for a week! Woot!).
But we were happy. I started the guild as a way to get in touch with friends. Since we were all busy with jobs and family responsibilities, the guild – which I dubbed “The Fellowship” (named after the same moniker as our tabletop RPG group founded in the 90s), was a way for us to meet every night and catch up, go “dungeon delving” and rip the butts of powerful beasts along the way.
