Pacman Did It Again!

Manny Pacquaio once again did the country proud today as he battled it out with Miguel Cotto, and won the match. The nation watched in awe as the world stood in amazement.

The phenomenal rise of Pacman, as he fondly called, is not only because of his skill as a boxer but also as a great influencer. Everything stands still every time he has a fight.

Thus, it’s good to remember how Pacman became what he is today. Thanks to Time Magazine for putting out The Rise of Manny Pacquiao.

We Are Ready for Pacquaio-Cotto Fight

Chris Tiu, “Who do you think will win between Pacquaio and Cotto this Sunday?”

Hilary Clinton quipped, “Of course Pacman will win! I mean is there any doubt?”

We are rooting for Manny Pacquaio, too, of course! We have our tickets and we are ready for the fight!

Go Manny!

The DigitalFilipino E-Commerce Summit 2009

Doing E-Commerce for Real!

The DigitalFilipino E-Commerce Summit 2009 is an intensive 2-day educational seminar on e-commerce strategies scheduled to take place on November 12 & 13, 2009 at the Hotel Intercontinental, Makati City.

We hope to make this an annual event that will provide an additional venue for learning among DigitalFilipino club members.

The event will focus on best practices (what to do, what not to do, execution, measurement) and we would like to have a great roster of resource persons who can share their insight & lessons learned.

We requested speakers to deliver talks on a big-picture perspective (keynote-style) discussing findings and insight that they haven’t mostly shared before but still reflective of their respective experiences.

We are targeting 150 to 200 participants for this event. Main audience will be DigitalFilipino club members, DigitalFilipino Web Awards past and current entries/winners, DigitalFilipino Social Networking Awards winners, SMEs, enterprises, and entrepreneurs at large.

This event is also targeted at:

1. Entrepeneurs and business owners - Get insight from fellow e-commerce practitioners on what approaches they have taken to expand their business online and the challenges they overcome.
2. Managers - Find out marketing and operations strategy, e-commerce practitioners embraced that worked and didn’t.
3. Investors and business development consultants - Get insight that will allow you to see and/or validate opportunities that can be worth exploring in your current or potential investment portfolio.
4. Educators and consultants - Based on experiences shared, get an idea on what critical skills and resources will be important for e-commerce aspirants to make it online.

Blog Action Day 2009: Let’s Preserve the Green

Today is Blog Action Day, and the theme is “Climate Change.“ Very fitting theme in the light of what’s happening in the country and in the rest of the world.

I live in a country where typhoons outnumber the number of months in a year. Can the number of typhoons outnumber that of the days of the month? I hope not. But the possibility is there. And the most likely culprit is climate change.
