Bariles Republic votes for Batang Yagit at the Philippine Blog Awards



18 September 2008 131 views 10 Comments

For this post, not only am I re-introducing the person who redesigned this blog for me but also casting my vote for his blog in the “Bloggers Choice” category of the Philippine Blog Awards for 2008.

The guy is Winston Almendras.

The blog is Batang Yagit.

It’s very easy to come up with reasons why I chose Winston’s blog.

First, aesthetics wise, it looks good. It has less clutter than most blogs I’ve come up with and is not an eye-sore.  It doesn’t cry out for attention and yet in a sublime manner, demands to be read.

2nd, the blog itself is a multi-faceted undertaking of the author, dealing with a variety of topics from the latest techie gadgets to the newest blockbuster movie;  from his musings on that last jeepney ride to his latest resto finds - which interestingly enough, are good reads even to the most jaded viewer.

3rd, it is owned by a fellow Mindanao blogger who belongs to a Davao-based group, The Usual Suspects, who undeniably has done a lot to promote blogging not only in these parts of the country but throughout the whole archipelago by virtue of their spearheading of the two largest blogger eyeballs ever, the Mindanao Bloggers Summit and the Wordcamp 2008.

Thus, if Winston’s blog makes it as Blogger’s Choice Awardee for the Philippine Blog Awards 2008, he is not winning only for himself, not only for the TUS,  but for ALL OF US us Mindanao Bloggers.

Simply put, a vote for Winston’s Batang Yagit is a vote for Mindanao bloggers. :)

Mabuhay ang Batang Yagit!
