Charice Pempengco!

[9 Mar 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

This is some­thing I’ve heard about over the past few weeks and I tried to catch her on Ellen but didn’t really get the chance to see her. I finally got to watch her on YouTube.
This is a good way to start the year–with good news and on a pos­i­tive note. Cheers to Charisse and all those who may not have won the con­tests they join but don’t lose heart. In the end, there’s noth­ing wrong with not fin­ish­ing first. Just keep walking!

Marie Digby — Bring Me Love

[22 Jan 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

This is an orig­i­nal song by the up-and-coming Marie Digby. It’s sup­posed to be a song meant for the hol­i­days, but just humor me with this. This is a less angsty and more hip ver­sion of My Grown-Up Christ­mas List. This is weird, but I can imag­ine lis­ten­ing to this while dri­ving all the way to Baguio. :-)
For those of you who have trou­ble with stream­ing videos, here’s a stream­ing audio ver­sion from Aimini.

2007 Scripps National Spelling Bee Champonship

[14 Jan 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

I didn’t know Spelling Bee’s could be so excit­ing. Around two weeks ago, the 2007 Scripps National Spelling Bee was shown on ESPN and I was glued to the TV set with my dad.

The win­ner is Evan O’Dorney who lists Spelling as a dis­tant third in the things he loves after Music and Math. A Fil-American named Joseph Henares tied for third and pro­vided a bit of humor and fresh air in an oth­er­wise seri­ous com­pe­ti­tion. When he was given his word: “punaise”, he exclaimed “Oh, my God!” to …

Philippine Alexa Ratings Top 10

[11 Jan 2008 | 0 Comments | ]

Alexa Inter­net was founded in 1996 by Brew­ster Kahle and Bruce Gilliat. The com­pany offered a tool­bar that gave Inter­net users guid­ance on where to go next, based on the traf­fic pat­terns of its user com­mu­nity. Alexa also offered con­text for each site vis­ited: to whom it was reg­is­tered, how many pages it had, how many other sites pointed to it, and how fre­quently it was updated. In 1999, Alexa was acquired by Ama​zon​.com for about $250 mil­lion in Ama­zon stock.
