I’ve been invited to contribute to the newly reformatted Mobile Philippine Mag and review some gadgets. I’ve always wanted to write for magazines or review some gears and gadgets. I thought that by blogging, I could hone my writing/communication skills and maybe one day be able write this off my top 100 things to do before I retire. :D I guess blogging did get me this gig.

My first assignment is this gear: the Oakley Thump.

Watch out for it on the November issue of Mobile Philippines. ;)

Btw, my other feature article on PC Magazine Philippines was pushed to the October issue. It should be out anytime now though.

what a success!!!!!!!!

i wish i can be a contributor to a Tech Mag too. i was actually a contributor of the DIWALIWAN Magazine of the Manila times before, pero naubos na ang mga storya ko kaya hindi na ako nakapagcontribute uli.

we are actually in need of writers for technology topics and gaming. i like referring bloggers because they are disciplined with deadlines, they know their “thing” and they write well.

drop me a comment on my blog if you want to write.
