Since my last post about seeding blog ideas, I’ve had a few additional blog projects collaborated with several more bloggers.
When Guitar Tutee and Blog ni Inday became a hit, it was obvious we had to explore several more ideas. There were some hits and misses but so far, here’s what we’ve got out of the barn:
- Pinoys Got Talent. The content model was a bit blurry when this was conceptualized but it’s now turning out a bit clearer. That is, to scout for Pinoy talents everywhere and feature them on the blog. It had to start somewhere and YouTube had tons of Pinoys with exceptional potential and indie Fil-Am YouTubers with huge following.
- Mundiarios. It’s a travel blog written in Spanish. The blogger is a friend from Argentina I met in Germany last December. Other big blog networks are doing foreign language blogs (usually Japanese, Chinese, German, and Spanish) so I thought this was one way to spread the network. It may open new doors to more blogs in Spanish too.
- Mac Complainer. The most recent one we just launched. This was in anticipation of MacWorld 2008. Written by PMPToday blogger BrianB (also a regular reader here), this week old blog has already had relative success. In the twit-words of Migs Paraz, “Looks like the guy who put up maccomplainer.com has a winner site!“. Credit goes to Brian.
The other one was supposed to be a group blog on sports — Spike it Hard is a huge hit in the UAAP & NCAA volleyball crowd. Though I also used to play volleyball and I love the sports, I don’t think I can be a sports blogger.
MarcVill sure knows how to get things going in there. Hundreds of replies in the comment discussions and thousands of voters in the polls. For now, I’m just a photo-contributor. The rest of the photos are here.
I decided to create a games blog out of the expensive .ph domain I recently purchased, talk about waste of money ha!
wow, Mundiarios is great! :) thanx Abe, your friend from Argentina.
pd: FNF Argentina is still in vacations and they havent given me an answer yet, but they told me they are analizing the idea (its expensive for this office) and will present it to the FNF Argentine chairman.
My predictions for 2008 are slowly coming true. Look at no. 10 . http://animohosting.com/main/my-2008-technology-predictions/
hehe
how about my blog? haha. :)
Good to know that there are new blogs rising up
Congrats on the new blog. I also launched blogngpinoy.com and asiagolfonline.com a couple of days ago. I hope I could get traffic too. :)
Geez, they got print media link love? Spoiled, so spoiled.
I guess it also helps that there’s reporter Erwin Oliva to further promote Blog ni Inday and Guitar Tutee on Inquirer.net, eh? :)
Hey, this is great. We definitely need the traffic atm. :)
