Last week, I got a thank you note from a website owner. I wrote about sendmeload.com and he got a couple of hits and purchases through this referral link.

What perks have you got from blogging?

I uploaded some photos from my trip to Coron, Palawan last May.
I wonder how Abe did his photo album such that the mere uploading of maaaaaany photos brought him considerable Google Adsense revenue.

Wordpress is able to screen out spam comments with multiple links to commercial sites selling pharmaceuticals or other products. Cool.
But wordpress doesn't screen seemingly legitimate entries that just say:
Hi :D
Buy X*n*x ?
So the past two days, I've been manually deleting these comments. Almost 30 comments each day for the ...

On Pinoy.Tech.Blog - Beijing vs. Bloggers:

Napapa-iling ako sa Addict Mobile Blog showing porn MMS photos.
When some people will hear about this, one way they'll treat the issue is to make sweeping conclusions. Something like
MMS is evil, I told you so!
Anak, hwag ka nang mag-cellphone. Baka kung ano pang ma-tanggap mo.
I'm speaking extremes, ...
