Top 20 Sites in the Philippines (Based on Alexa.com)

Facebook tops the list of sites in the Philippines in terms of traffic rank. That is not very surprising, right? Almost everybody now has a Facebook account and the recent change of the Friendster web design only motivated more people to join in the FB mania. By the way, Friendster is now on Top 6, and joining these top social networking sites is Twitter at No.11.

Five sites on the top list are Search Engines - Yahoo.com (Top 2), Google.com.ph (Top 3), Google.com (Top 5), MSN (Top 18) and WindowsLive (Top 20), and three are blog sites (wow, I hope that means the Pinoy blogging community is getting bigger!) - Blogger (Top 7), Multiply (Top 9), and Wordpress (Top 10).

Wikipedia also made it to the list being No.8 and YouTube rocks at No.4 (I wonder who will get a big break this 2010 through this video site.. hmmm).

As proof of the fact that the ‘Kodakan’ tradition is still a hit in the country, Photobucket ranked No. 14 and Flicker at No.17. I should also mention that the one of a kind entry here is Sulit.com.ph at No. 12.

Oh, and I also have to note that two of the sites are online game sites - Zynga.com (Go FarmVille, FishVille, Cafe World, and Mafia Wars!!! Weeee!) and Y8.com.

Sadly, the remaining two are porn sites so mommies, please check on the websites that your kids often visit. Teenage pregnancy rates in the country are already quite alarming and so are the statistics on abortion and sexual abuse. Imagine, every year, 64,000 Pinoy teenagers have abortions and by the age of 20, 25% of the Filipino youth are already young moms.

@edelweiza: Yup. I think it's because it gives room for more real time communication. Thanks for visiting my site :)

@claudia: Thanks for dropping by :) Will think about your offer.. but I think my blog doesn't require much advertising at the moment since it still doesn't feature affiliate ads and write-ups now.

Real Leaf Paparazzi

I have never been a fan of sodas. Nor did I ever engage in a one-night spree with beer or vodka. Instead, I have always loved ice-cold tea. Drinking tea is a habit I’ve developed since I was in college and my ‘tea-addictivity’ has never wavered since. I’ve patiently put up with teabags for years but fortunately, bottled-up teas are now available and distributed in heaps. These days, I’m much fond of Nestea’s Real Leaf Tea and I share this fondness with my two closest “allies” – my partner in life and my younger brother. W hat follows is our one big atte mpt to encourage more people to engage in our quest for a Real Life with Coca Cola’s Real Le af tea (and of course, an attempt to get a prize from Nuffnang's exciting contest- Real Leaf Paparazzi!)… This is the typical “Juan” trying to have a Real Life. With the help of the Real Leaf tea, my brother 'John' tries to stay 100% on. He tries to relieve the exhaustion, stress, and anxiety brought by… (a) a hard day’s work as a n...

Project ALL-TIME: The iPop

The All-Time Dilemma Tardiness. Delays. Lost opportunities. I'm pretty sure everybody has experienced these things just by not being at the right place at the right time. Such wouldn't happen if we can teleport. If we could just pop out anywhere we want to, then we wouldn't miss out on important events just because of congested roads and punctuality issues of public transportation. We can go wherever we want without worrying about flight reservations, car maintenance, and sky-high transportation fares. Moreover, we will no longer be bothered by the fact that... A pedestrian is injured in a traffic accident every eight minutes, An estimated 1.3 million people die on our roads each year, About 1,600 aviation accidents causing about 600 deaths happen yearly, About 10, 200 people get injured inside elevators every year, and There are 6,000 escalator injuries annually, in the U.S. alone. At a more personal level, having the ability to teleport can help Dad get to his...

Mommy Moments: Mother's Day 2010

At first, I wanted to skip this week's MM because the theme was Mother's Day and I really don't have much to share about that day. I started that day (it was actually 'night' because we were all still awake during the wee hours of the morning) with a hug, a kiss, and a greeting from hubby... The End... Actually, I was a bit sad that day since I wasn't able to visit my Mom and give her something. I just called her up to greet her and to tell her that I love her. That's it. I also didn't receive a card or a flower from hubby **sigh** and my babies are... well, babies, so they couldn't possibly come up with a card. However, I really appreciate all the bloggers, online friends, and "offline friends" :) who extended their greetings to me. I really felt remembered with all the FB photo tagging, wall posts, and mails. Before I started making this post, I read Mommy Chris' MM entry and she noted that we should write about why this year...
