Bisdak Bloggers in Davao mini-EB

Friends can be categorized to two groups – online friends and offline friends. Though at times our real life friends are also our friends online, there are instances when friendships are developed online through the social networking sites. Before Facebook, I had some friends that I have known through blogging. We became friends and known each other by visiting each other’s blogs, commenting on posts, exchanging emails or chatting over yahoo messenger. Then here comes facebook and twitter. The online world convene at one place. I had more than four hundred friends, half of which are my online chums. I haven’t even met them offline! Lately, groups are created. We have different groups for different interestes. I was a member of different blogging groups. But lately, I am spending more time in a certain group – exchanging ideas and commenting in each other’s post. I am not a pure Bisaya but I like the warm camaraderie of the groups Bisdak Bloggers and Basta Bisdak Gwapa among other groups that I belong. We can talk about anything within the group. Nobody seems to assume that she is better off than others.

There are some Bisdak Bloggers members from Davao. I already met Mommy Verna last July. Yesterday, we had a meetup again. This time, with another BB from Comval Province. We had lunch at Port Café in Gaisano Mall of Davao.

Our meetup won’t be complete without our photos taken. Thanks to Ace for taking our photos!

Along with the great food, we had a good time, good laugh, and good chat! I guess we were the longest staying costumers in the café yesterday as we adjourned our mini-EB at past 3PM. Just imagine we were there since 12PM and only vacated our seats three hours after? We really had a great time! Ace had a great time listening to us too!LOL. Oh, he’s included in our conversations, actually. He seems to be one of us.

Tweaked

New look! Finally, I was able to tweak my boring theme and made a makeover by myself. Weee! My theme tweaking mojo visited me for more than a couple of hours and I was able to tweak some of my blogs’ themes.

I wanted to do something though but I can’t spare another extra hour for it so I am leaving as is for now. At least, I have changed the header, the font and background colors. That’s all my limited tweaking power could do for the mean time.

Wish I had the time to explore online colleges and find affordable web design
courses

Web Hosting provider

Been blogging for more than three years. Aside from having numerous blogs to maintain, I also have more than a couple of webhost for all my blogs and some of friends and families’ blogs. I heard from a friend blogger that it is important to host sites in different hosting provider so that when one provider is down, there are still other sites that are up and running. It is also important to have my blogs have a different IP addresses that is why I got three accounts from different hosting providers. It’s quite expensive, but worth it.

Before I decided to get a hosting plan from hostgator, I spent a lot of time reading hostgator reviews because I want to make sure that their services is great. After a lot of brainstorming, finally I signed up for a baby croc plan from Hostgator. Turned out so well. I didn’t have problem with them since I got a hosting account with them. It’s all worth the money! So when friends are asking for recommendations for a hosting provider, I usually mention hostgator and my other hosting provider.
