Posts Tagged ‘ You Got Tech ’

Congratulations to all the winners and to Janette Toral for yet another successful project!

From my own nominees, here are the blogs that made it to the top 10:

You Got Tech – this group blog about techie stuff for non-techies is just wonderful! It really is very educational, specially for non-techies like myself!
VisitSagada.com – the group blog of what is now beginning to be called as The Sagada Boys (Jeff, Benj , Fritz, Angel and Gareth). This blog not only gives people tips on traveling to Sagada, it actually also promotes local tourism. San ka pa makakahanap niyan diba? Mga poging tour guides!
Sino Sila: BloggersÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ DaWho – Okay, I said I will not nominate all of my new blogs, I will nominate just one. I believe that this blog is starting to emerge as an influential blog in the sense that people talk about it (online and offline), bloggers get to exercise circumspection (not that they need it) through it, and gossip is hot!

Thank you to all those who nominated Bloggers Da Who! Thanks also to our contributors (you know who you are!)

Bakla’s Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs of 2008

It’s that time of the year again! The Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs of 2008 is now ongoing and I have finally come up with my final list of blogs which I believe are both, well, emerging and influential. Last year, I nominated only 8 blogs as I was kinda new in the blogging community and didn’t really follow a lot of blogs.

Oh what a difference a year makes! Thanks to my online and offline whoring of my blog, I have gotten to quadruple the number of blogs on my feed reader. I have also learned a lot from my experiences Ã¢â‚¬â€ getting invited to events and launches, meeting new bloggers, reading new stuff about blogging, and a whole lot more. I have also put up new blogs apart from my pre-existing LiveJournal, Multiply and Baklaako.com. I came up with Gay Events Philippines – a blog that rounds up all gay-oriented and gay-related events from all over the Philippines. I also started Ernie’s own travel blog (which at this time is on temporary hiatus due to technical issues) since he tagged along with me in all my adventures in and around the country. I also put up my own food blog, Eat Your Hearts Out! Ã¢â‚¬â€ a food blog for non-food experts. And just recently, the gossip blog about bloggers: DaWho! Also, I am currently in the planning and building stages in putting up a group blog of sorts for me and my chica friends about fashion, beauty, movies, music, entertainment, lifestyle, clubbing, and so much more! Oh and yeah, the ambitious Baklang AJ is also currently setting up his own tech, beauty, fashion and shopping, career, and events blogs (tig-iisa yan ha, so good luck na lang sa akin!) No, I am not nominating all of these, nor am I pitching them to you for nomination (if the pitch works, I won’t blame you. lol).

So let’s get on with my nominees for this years Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs of 2008 (In no particular order): Read the rest of this entry »
