Batang Yagit in PBA ‘08
September 22, 2008
I still can’t find the words to write. It’s almost eight hours now when I came to this quasi utopia state. The sensations I felt hours ago are still fresh. I want to muster the right words to say (or write) but I can’t. All I can think of right at the moment is THANK YOU.
Going back twenty hours before the event, Jehz and I were at home, browsing the internet and checking the progress of the votes for Batang Yagit from technorati. Even at the very last day of the voting period, several people were still able to cast their precious votes. Most of whom are coming from the Visayas and the Mindanao region.

Batang Yagit para sa PBA Bloggers’ Choice Award
September 16, 2008
Ako po si Batang Yagit, isang blogger na taga-Mindanao (Davao City). Ako po ay natutuwa sa pagkakapasok ko bilang nominee sa Philippine Blog Awards Bloggers’ Choice Award. Ito ang pangalawang nomination ko para sa PBA 2008.
Noong nakaraang buwan, nakatanggap ako ng email galing sa mga organizers ng PBA na nagsasabing nanominate ang Digital Puto blog ko para sa Photo Blog na category. Mas higit kong ikinagalak nang malaman kong nakapasok ang Batang Yagit sa mga finalist para sa Bloggers’ Choice Award. Yayks. For the Win ang yagit.
Marami rin sa mga kakilala ko ang nakapasok sa nomination. Kung marami lang kaming mga yagit nag nagblo-blog, pakikiusapan ko ang lahat ng yagit sa world na iboto ang mga kakilala ko. Tsk tsk tsk. Pero dahil nag-iisa lang ako, ibibigay ko ang aking boto kay “Batang Yagit”.
“Wala pang yagit na nanalo ng award, sana ako ang una”.

Goodyear Autocare in Mandaue
September 13, 2008
A week before I left for Manila for the WordCamp Philippines 2008 event, I received a call from Ms. Karla Tecson inviting me (and my blogging friends) to attend the launch of Goodyear’s Autocare center in Maguikay, Mandaue City. Because the event fell on a Thursday (August 28, 2008), only three of us (bloggers) responded to the invitation. Present were McBilly, X and me.

Wordcamp Philippines
September 6, 2008
A lot of people were wondering what happened to my blog after becoming idle for a couple of months. I’ve been very busy with my studies in Cebu City that I was not able to find time for my blog. But that didn’t stop me from getting involved with blogging.
Last Thursday, I flew to Manila for the most awaited event, the WordCamp Philippines 2008. Five months ago, we started doing our preparations for the event in Davao and Manila. But I am very glad that the 8-hour event turned out successfully.
Hundreds of Wordpress users and developers attended Southeast Asia’s first WordCamp. The event was graced by the presence of the creator of Wordpress Matt Mullenweg.
The success of WordCamp Philippines 2008 won’t be possible without the collaboration of the members of the organizing team, the sponsors, the blogger and student volunteers.

My iBlog 4 Experience
April 29, 2008 | Author: Winston | Filed under: Blog
Visited 412 times, 1 so far today
This is the second time that I’m breaking out of my urban primitive life, a.k.a. I-can’t-find-a-decent-internet-connection-in-the-big-city. If you have listened to Ate Ria’s talk on Countryside Blogging, you’ll understand how it feels for a provincial blogger like Batang Yagit (who lived in a city where FREE wifi is available 24 hours in most parts of the metro) to be deprived of decent internet connection for almost a week.
In my own honest opinion, the iBlog4 even turned out to be a success for both bloggers and organizers who took part in the event. Most of the topics discussed in the whole event were quite significant for me. My personal favorite would be Ate Ria’s talk on countryside blogging and Kuya Juned’s talk on photo blogs.
I was also able to meet a few of my online friends. The first who greeted me was Kuya AJ of BaklaAko.com. Karlo PinoyBlogero was also nice that he approached us on our seats before his talk started.
After Ate Ria’s talk, I felt like my whole Batang Yagit online image received a 180-degree change. Coy even said that I should change my name to Batang Maykaya. Ate Ria even mentioned that the Batang Yagit attends wine and cheese parties. My reaction, LOLS. I can now hear Carlo Aquino screaming, “Akala nyo lang wala, pero meron, meron, meron“.
The 88db party was also fun for me. The “come-as-your-blog” gimik of the 88db.com organizers made the night more exciting. I envy the chicken who received the PSP. I should have brought my fellow street urchins to cheer for me. Tsk tsk tsk.
