To blog or not to blog

Hello again!
why blog? Here are somethings to consider:

Being Free - It is true blogging is fun. That is, if you are fond of expressing yourself. You see, having your own blog gives you an outlet for however you feel. You have the creative freedom to write or include whatever you want. But of course there are a few unwritten laws and a lot of do's and don't's. Expressing how you feel on the www also puts you at risks. Everheard of the word "Dooced"? I'll just explain further in my future posts.

Expense - There are free blog space providers with very good features. They also offer free domain names. You really don't have to worry much about that. What might put a hole in your pockets would be your internet connection subscription - An amount which can be considered minimal and worth taking the risk in exchange for a chance to earn a lot of bucks. Hey, you can't expect to earn anything without investing something. And heck! if you don't earn a single penny, you had fun anyway - really worth the expense.

Friends - It is a good way to meet new and old friends. You can start a community of people having the same interests.

Time allotment - If your goal is to earn a lot of bucks. You'll have to invest a lot of time managing your blog/s. It is quite time consuming. So if you think that blogging is a lucrative part time job...you might as well forget it. But don't quit your day jobs just yet, unless you are sure of success if ever you decide on making blogging your full time job.

...speaking of time...had to go to work now...hmp!

Easy on me

Still me here. Miss me? hehe...Yeah I know I'm posting something new after just a few hours of posting my first one. Lucky you, you didn't access my blog at its very raw form. I kinda added, editted and toyed around with this Google Blogger software and belieeeve me, it is not easy as it looks... well, actually it is but the hard part is on making decisions - what template, what color combination, fonts...what to include in the sidebar, to create an AdSense Account, to registert in OpenID...blAH..blah..blah...this thing could go on forever...Whew! The pains of giving birth! So, ease up on me, will ya? I know all you successful bloggers out there went through the same kind of stuff. I'll try to catch up and even go beyond you (Dream on!). I'll keep on improving my work and hope to share some things that I learned and will still learn to our future bloggers.

My First Day in the Blogosphere

Hello everyone!

My brother who manages Pinoy Green Academy blog (www.pinoygreenacademy.com) introduced me to blogging. After months of reading books on how to get it started...setting goals (which is usually really to make lots and lots of money on blogs - that was my first intention, just being honest), thinking about what topics to write about...... spending a lot of load on my prepaid broadband connection... wasting time trying out what blogging software works for me...well here I am with a quite different goal (just have fun...and maybe earn something out of it...what the heck!) and atlast, a topic or should I say a lot of topics to discuss about. Well, I'm only an expert in one thing that could perhaps tickle your fancy - Everything I go through in life as seen through my eyes. Why the hell should you be interested? Well, you'll see...you'll be surprised about the many similar things we go through in life. My advocacy? Share... the many things I've learned, my views on various issues and hope to put a smile, perhaps a giggle on you as you enjoy reading ...learn and laugh from my experience.

Don't worry, there would be a lot to share with you, I may just be 36 years young, but I do live each day as if it were my last. Meaning I seize the day.
