The Struggling Blogger

Thanks to the internet, we are able to transcend nationalities, races and color. We get to meet people from the other parts of the globe.

With that introduction, I would like to present to you my featured blogger in my Bloggers Connection, Eric Schweer.

Eric who is from Colorado is my first featured blogger who is neither a Filipino nor in the Philippines. But like I said, internet, and my Bloggers Connection, goes beyond the limit of the archipelago.

Like most bloggers I know today, I ‘met’ Eric through my blogger friend Jena Isle, my very first featured blogger here.

Eric blogs about mountains, the great outdoors and almost anything under the sun through his blog Ruminations of a Small Town Mountain Boy. What I like most about him is that “he can take you to nature” with him.

I am presenting again my Bloggers Connection, and this time, instead of featuring just a single blogger, I am giving you a group of bloggers - the Clin Chem Student Bloggers, a group of students who created their blogs to support their studies on Clinical Chemistry.

With the blessing and guidance of their professor, these 29 students created their blogs:
1. To enhance the learning-teaching process through Web-Based Instructional Materials (WBIM).
2. To synchronize learning-teaching methods with relevant, available updates in technology.
3. To encourage students to utilize current technology in their learning process.
4. To adapt current and global online methods of learning.

Most of them, if not all of them, are first-time bloggers. And I believe that by presenting them here, you can help me in encouraging these students and formally welcoming them to the blogosphere.

This is a follow-up to my original post about Fatherlyours and his web host, WebPinas. So far here’s what we have:

WebPinas is owned by Kenneth Estanislao (name given by one of his clients in the comment section in the original post). He is hacksider in Twitter and Mon is one of his followers, and I believe some of his clients are his followers too.

He is a member of Sulit.com, where we got his details (phone number and address), and also in TipidPC, where he seemed to be an active one with a good reputation.

He is also connected with Photosource, an offshore web development and outsourcing company.

I have already forwarded his address to Mon, and some of his clients know his landline too.

I have not written the original post (nor this follow-up) to initiate a nationwide manhunt for Kenneth. In fact, what really necessitates this follow-up post is to request everyone to please…

This is a special edition of Bloggers Connection, because not only am I featuring Fatherlyours by Mon, but I’m also including his web host provider Webpinas.com in the post. I guess if I am indeed an emerging influential blogger, I better make good use of it… if I really do have that influence.

Okay let’s proceed.

First, the web hosting service provider – Webpinas.com, quite frankly, I never heard of them until Mon told me about his problem. Yes, he has a problem with them!

He can’t access his blog Fatherlyours.com since the start of May. He tried to check their website and it is down too. Mon tried calling their numbers on the phone but he can’t reach them, and they are not answering his text messages too.

After a long while, I am bringing back my Bloggers Connection, and I hope that this time, I can do this on a regular basis. It is after all, my own personal endeavour and contribution to make the blogosphere a better place to be in… my quest to create an enviroment where bloggers support bloggers.

And featured on today’s Bloggers Connection, I am proud to present to you Elmot!

Elmot is the man behind the Ani-Mo!!! blog, where he posts his views and opinion on Philippine politics, current news and events, as well his thoughts on other blogs.

And just like most of us bloggers, his blog also contains posts of events that happened in his life, his struggles and joys, hits and misses… and I believe I saw some rants too.
