Note: This post is adapted from my Manila Bulletin Blog-O-Rama column for April 27, 2009. Because of the popularity of blogs these days, some companies are joining the blog mob or the blog bandwagon. There’s really nothing wrong with this. A corporate blog, after all, is another way to connect with your customers or market on another level. And a blog, if put up well, can project more warmth and candidness than a generic press releases would.

Aliwan Fiesta 2009: costumes and faces
Holy schmoly, it's my first time to cover a festival in the history of this blog. This is the Aliwan Fiesta Grand Parade which was held today (April 25) at the CCP Complex grounds and then culminating at the Quirino Grandstand.

LP 54: Gusali/Building

Meron pa nga akong kuha sa loob ng World Trade Center bago ito gumuho noong 2001.So far, na-compile ko pictures na kuha sa Singapore (mula sa hotel), Malaysia (siyempre, Petronas Tower), at Japan (nightscape).
