I logged in Formspring today and found over 30 unanswered questions. I’ll try to clear them out before the weekend. Anyway, one of the more interesting questions there was if I ever tried applying to Yahoo or other big software companies. I’ve never really “applied” for work other than my first job. All my job [...]

I resigned from Friendster a few months ago and it’s been one crazy but fun roller coaster ride after I hung up my corporate “jersey” and went full time with my business. An article recently came out on Manila Bulletin written by Cora Llamas which talks about having a “second life” or changing careers/vocation. In [...]

Another interesting question this time via e-mail! A reader asked what should she do if she found some people annoying or insulting on their social network in Twitter or Facebook. My answer is pretty straightforward and blunt. Unfollow or Unfriend them. There are too many distractions already in life and the last thing you need [...]

This is actually a question that was asked to me on Formspring by John Arce. Sadly, I don’t have a top 5 list. I love a lot of books “equally” and I’ll probably need at least a top 30. So… that’s what I did, haha! Check out my top 30 business/marketing books after the break. [...]

I got this very interesting reader question via Formspring: “Most Internet junkies have a routine when it comes to opening/loading pages/sites. What are the first 10 sites you load on your browser when you wake up in the morning?” Well, I consume tons of media daily from the internet so I can actually run the [...]

I don’t know if I’m the best person to ask for financial advice (this is more for Randell Tiongson) but allow me to share some of my experiences and challenges with regards to the topic. Before I buy anything I usually just ask myself two questions. The first is can I afford it and the [...]

This question came in from Formspring. To those who don’t know, I’ve been a huge online gaming fan since college. When Ragnarok Online came out locally I went nuts over it and became very attached about my character and my guild. I played the game seriously and competitively for a couple of years. Yes, too [...]

I seem to keep getting a lot of reader questions lately via e-mail. Anyway, this just came in a few minutes ago. A reader who’s operating a gadget store asked me if he should move his store out of Multiply and get his own site? He also asked what are the advantages and disadvantages of [...]

I got this question via e-mail this morning and I just wanted to quickly answer it now. While I strongly advise people to make their own blogs and sites to sell their services and items, classified ads websites like SULIT and AYOSDITO can actually help drive traffic to your site and also close deals for [...]

The answer is a big, big, big YES. Blogging is all about positioning yourself and building your brand equity. You don’t build brands overnight. As long as you’re blogging about something that you’re really passionate about and you’re in it for the long haul then by all means start as soon as you can. If [...]

She asked a couple of questions and I’d like to take this opportunity to answer them and publish them in this blog [...]
