Social responsibility, transparency and accountability of the Philippine Blog Awards

7 months of silence
It’s been 7 months now that we talked about the Philippine Bolunteers Award. I called it such because to me, they have not provided us and Pinoy blogosphere any sense of comfort nor even respond to some of the questions raised. Not even a statement to address some of the valid questions [...]

Admiration for China

Who would not have an admiration for China?

Bloggers vs. Journalists

January 13, 2009

Bloggers.
Journalists.
Mainstream media.
New media.
Historically, news has been exclusive to both print and the broadcast media. Yet we all know that internet changed the rules. Exclusivity doesn’t belong to journalism no more.
