I Envy You
2008-04-05 16:12:00
Plenty of readers, solid comments, people visiting your blog always. That’s what a very good blog has. I really envy them. You know, the feeling or the fact that I am not very good at english language and grammar, I just envy those who are very good at it, Filipinos who are good in english. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fmarcroger.com%2Fpersonal%2F i-envy-you%2F'; addthis_title = 'I+Envy +You'; addthis_pub = ''; It's really nice having a coffee while reading, I'll appreciate it if you treat me one.

Create Your Online Store
2008-04-04 04:15:00
My Own UniverseMost of the bigger websites or blogs do sell things on their website, some are big time sellers, some are small time. But what makes them similar is, they all are using an ecommerce software. An ecommerce software is an online shopping cart software that is used for shopping. From the word shopping cart itself, I think that is self explanatory. A shopping cart software is very essential if you are selling products online. It will be much more easier on your users or visitors to just click and click on the shopping cart if they want to but that product you are selling. Just imagine yourself selling products and you don’t have any softwares to handle your clients, no body is going to buy to you, I guarantee that. Adding this software will make your users feel more secure shopping online. Ashop Commerce does all that for you. They offer secure online shopping cart software and also they are hosting it for you. They are a leading US provider of hosted shopping cart...

Review: Contextual Advertising with TNX.net
2008-03-29 15:43:00
TNX is a company that combines the benefits of Text Link Brokers, Contextual Advertising and Relevant Exchange of permanent non-reciprocal text links. Like most Contextual Advertising Companies, they target publishers and advertisers equally. They are still in beta but their daily growth goes 0.3%, which is good. Joining TNX is so easy for webmasters, it’s FREE. You only have to wait for 3 days for the moderator to review your site. The main advantage for webmasters is that they are able to sell links on every page of their websites, instead of using the main page which could be 10 times more profitable than selling sitewide links. Not only that, they can also choose advertisers themselves, placing only links that are relevant to every page of their site. To join, all you have to do is click this http://tnx.net/register.php and register. Publishers have great benefits and huge income if you do have high PR. Here are the benefits you will get when you sign-up with them: add...

Great Day!
2008-03-27 15:49:00
Whew! Wattah Day! Heh. I was interviewed by the HR representative on the company where I applied as a layout-artist. Was my very first time interviewed one-on-one, and I was really nervous. Haha, I was so nervous that my sweat was dripping. Whew! But the thing is, they told me and my fellow interviewees to come back tomorrow for the training. Hmmm, am I hired for that? I mean, should they told me to come back for training if I wasn’t hired? To be honest, I don’t know. This is the first time I will work for a company, and I don’t know how things should be. It’s kinda weird about the interview. I don’t know, is it just me or that’s how interviews really are, she asked me about what do I expect on the salary. I don’t know if I answered it right but I answered “I don’t really know ma’am, this is the first time I applied for a job, so I guess I don’t expect much.” What do you think? Hehe. And the Best of all, me and ...

Well they did, they did catch my attention and signed up for PayPerPost. In fact, it is very tempting to join because of their posties testimonials, and I think they are great.

Tulogan Elementary School
2008-03-22 10:00:00
Yesterday, me, my family, my aunt and Pastor Jerry of Words of Life Christian Ministries have gone to Padada Digos City for some family matter talk. And we also have gone to Baranggay Tulogan which is near Kiblawan. Here’s a picture of the sign.  Along the way, Pastor Jerry mentioned a sign that says “Tulogan Elementary School ”. Which is very funny because the word Tulogan is Filipino word for bed or a place to sleep. Tulog means sleep. And Pastor Jerry said, that school produces sleepy students. Hehehe. Well, I thank God for bringing us back home safe and sound despite of the very heavy rain fall on our way back home. I barely can see the road because of the rain. I only drove 50 miles per hour, it is very slow for a super highway.

LOST is Getting More Mysterious

I’ve watched LOST Season 4 Episode 5 yesterday, it was the best episode so far on the new season. Why? I cried! hahaha. I just miss the mysterious days on the season one when that facility hadn’t imploded yet. Episode five was very interesting. Desmond was actually traveling through time but not physically, but mentally. It’s like his mind was traveling 8 years back and forth and all because of the “radiation”. But all those has consequences or side-effects. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fmarcroger.com%2Ftv-shows%2F lost-is-getting-more-mysterious%2F'; addthis_title = 'LOST+is+Getting+More+Mysterious '; addthis_pub = ''; It's really nice having a coffee while reading, I'll appreciate it if you treat me one.

Another Money Maker Buzz

Yep, I’m talking about another money-making website buzz that pays bloggers for their opinions, but this one is kinda different. They will pay you based on your blog value. How do they value my blog? Pretty simple, they will value your blog based on your blog’s popularity, your posts quality and how many readers are actually interacting to your blog posts. Now this is cool, if you do have many readers that are actually leaving comments and feedbacks on your posts, you’ll be paid more. Isn’t it great? My blog value isn’t that high for now, I don’t have that much audience, as I just started blogging. What are the requirements for my blog to be accepted? My blog was accepted and valued right after I submitted my blog URL. You don’t have to wait a week for your blog to be accepted. The only things they require is your posts must be originally written by you and and must have a minimum of 150 words. Money -making takes a lot of patience, so if you...

I’m sure there is. And when that happens, Philippines will be a better place. Maybe it’s time to wake up Filipinos!

SMART Bro Personality Test, Get a Chance to Win a PC

I found this SMART Bro’s interesting personality test and tried it. It will determine if you’re a Chatter, Gamer, Networking or a Downloader. Kinda cool though and not just that, you’ll get a chance to win a brand new PC. I definitely agree with their personality test. I really am a chatter inside out, since I was 15 years old, I already am addicted to IRC. And still am, and now I’m one of the Services Administrator of ChatX Network, was a Assistant Server Administrator when queen.chatx.net was up. Why don’t you try it up and find out what you really are? The requirements I think is: You have to have a Friendster account. You have to be a  Filipino or atleast lived for a few months here. You still can take the personality test even if you’re not a Filipino, but expect some  unrelevant answers to the question.

Free Drumless Backtracks For Drummers To Play-Along With

I’ve been looking for these kinds of backtracks all my drumming life. These backtracks are drumless (obviously hehe) It’s so cool! Especially when you practice different kinds of beats and no one could play along with you for practice. Practicing drums is very important if you really want to be a good drummer. If you could, practice like 4 hours per day, guaranteed, you’ll be a pro in no time. And if you can jam with other instruments, do it. Familiarize yourself on beats and counts. Really important, because in playing in a band, you’re the heart or beat of the music. If you get lost in between plays, if they’re aren’t skilled enough to manage their own beat, your band mates would be lost too. That’s how important a drummer is.
