Startup Asia Singapore 2012
We joined Startup Asia Singapore.
It’s my first time out of the country alone. Well, technically, I wasn’t really alone. I was with my partner, Nicole, and I loved every bit of it. In fact, I’m still loving it here! If I were to pick one thing that I love the most about Singapore, it would be the fact that despite them being very technologically advanced, the air is very...

Our really cool venue! Many thanks to Exist who lent us the venue, and Ida Ortiz who made this happen!
The participants! Most were graduating...

Google AppEngine Workshop
Yesterday, I suddenly (trust me. It was sudden) felt the urge to hold a workshop for Google AppEngine here in my beloved hometown - Cebu City. I’ve been playing around and built apps on the GAE (Google AppEngine) platform for the past three years, and yet I can only count with my fingers the number of other developers that are familiar with GAE.
Well, aside from the fact that I’m...

I remember when I was about 12 years old, and I was hanging out with my siblings and some of my friends on the rooftop of our house, my siblings noticed a truck pass by the rough road beside our...
