Introduction: Carlo Roxas

I would like to make my first post as an introduction of myself like what I did in the mailing list.

First off, I am Carlo Roxas, a 22 years old corporate drone in a BPO in Makati City. I work as a Department Manager under the IT Division of our company. Currently I am part-time blogging at http://carlotech.net tackling Technology and some rants and ramblings.

I will post Technology-related articles here most of the time and sometimes with regards to other topics I think is worth discussing :)

From Hobby Blogging To ProBlogging

I started blogging last 2003 although I was already staying on the net since 1999 as webmaster.

At first blogging for me was just hobby. A hobby that somehow changed my writing skills from dumber to dumb. A hobby that sometimes used as a way of expressing what I feel to someone.

Year 2001 when I started to feel the importance of the Search Engine and the Search Engine Results Pages for my sites. And I was then urged by my blogs (2003) to do some tricks to climb up the SERPosition of my blogs on the Search Engines. Thus, led me to the creation of my Ka Webspy Network.

10 Things I’ve Learned from Blogging

  1. Coming up with ideas for a blog post can be sooo exhausting.
  2. When the most brilliant ideas manifest themselves in your fragile mind, you’re either in a situation where you can’t go online or even take down notes, or you’re too lazy to open your computer and type your mind away.
  3. Given enough time, your blog will attract admirers, stalkers, and vandals. Hooray.
  4. Your ex is reading how bitter your life is right now. She’s evil.
  5. No matter how good you think you are in writing good material, there will always be better writers writing better material a few clicks away. And it makes you sad.
  6. Earning money from your blog is not an exact science. It’s a mix of chance and divine intervention.
  7. Whoever you think is not reading your blog, probably is.
  8. A pretty blog will only hold visitors for a few minutes. Content is where it’s at, yo!
  9. One entry is all it takes to set your blog on fire, negatively or positively.
  10. If you can’t come up with a good idea for a blog post, the good ol’ “10 Things…” list can always save your day.

Baddie learned these things from his numerous old blogs, and will probably learn more with his current blogs: LongBox and Baddieverse. He’s also spreading the blogging bug to the rest of the UPLB community at Go LB!

My Blog’s Down Again

One of the problems I experience today as I am spending my time in blogging is the online status of my site. I really sad that my site is again down for quiet hours already. I wonder if the tech support of my site’s host knew about this and is now doing his duty for the sake of my site. I wanted to let them know about the problem but even their support site is also down.

Oh my… please help me make it through. I really need to post something for my blog and I also need the blog to be online again for seconds are really precious to me.

Mang Inasal and PotDog

Mang Inasal and PotDogRobinsons was the first big mall in Pala-Pala, Dasmarinas, Cavite. Less than two years after that, SM Dasma was born and the volume of people going to Robinson’s Dasma dropped. But Robinsons faced the competition head on by expanding and creating a gimik place right in the corner of Aguinaldo Highway and Governor’s Drive. Dencio’s is now there as well as Mang Inasal. PotDog is in front of the supermarket counter. These are three joints you can’t find in SM Dasma as of this writing. Robinson’s conquered me with these three as well as the cheaper sepermarket prices they have. Read more here…

SEO Contest Explained

In layman�s term, SEO contest is a competition participated by webmasters using a search engine�s website pagerank system. Typically, the contest uses a nonsense and non-existent keyword for optimization. Some of the most famous SEO contest keywords include the �hommingberger gepardenforelle�, �nigritude ultramarine� and the �V7ndotcom Elursrebmem�. Generally, the keywords used in all SEO contests have no meaning because of these two reasons:

1. To avoid older websites to have a head start against newer sites.
2. To protect the ordinary internet searchers from the so-called �search results spams�.

Wear Sunscreen

This is one of my favorite songs. It was written by Mary Schmich and published in the Chicago Tribune as a column in 1997 and was set to music, renamed “Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen)” (aka “The Sunscreen Song”) and released on an album by Australian film director Baz Luhrmann. He is the man behind Romeo + Juliet (1996), starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes, and Moulin Rouge! (2001), starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor.

I have learned about this song in our training class last month. And the first time Liana, my trainer, played this, it touched me right in the heart. Life would have been ridiculously easy if someone had told me all of these before. Pass the word along to others. Click here if you want to listen to the song.

Blogus, what???

May kaibigan akong nag-post sa Buko Republic ng isang magandang artikulo ng ang pamagat ay Selebrasyon ng Buhay. Wala akong masabi tungkol sa artikulong ito kundi hanep, ang ganda! Dito, may nabanggit sya na isang bagay na gusto kong i-share sa inyo. Ito ay ang katagang Blogus at ito ang kanyang kahulugan.

Blogus. Blog-blog-an ng totoong buhay. Konting politika, negosyo, sports, lifestyle, showbiz, personal, kuntil-butil at saka buhay-buhay, seryoso man o simpleng kulitan lang. Nagtatangka itong maging isang Pinoy blog na kokontra sa bogus na lipunan at iba pang pagpapanggap ng mga lider-lideran ng ating Bayang sinasawi at ginugulapi. Blogus – isang sandatang maraming bala.
