Ria / RJ aka Polar aka Gongju and Gwing aka Kwala aka Cong Chua During the Kadayawan DotA Tournament Finals, my cousin Gwing and I wore our DotAStrategy.com shirts and a lot of people were green with envy. I've been receiving a lot of queries regarding where and how they can buy/get the shirts. Ah, eh... There are only three of those shirts: mine, Gwing's and Kuya Andrew's. But don't worry DS fans, Kuya Andrew and I are already working on having the shirts printed, so well can give/sell it to those who want one. Abangan...

Another Reason to Advertise Online
According to Synovate's study (as cited by the Philippine Daily Inquirer), web advertising is more targeted than advertising through cell phones. According to the article, the research shows that: 1) "people go online for a reason" 2) 70% of internet users are willing to give out their email ads for promos 3) however, "mobile phones have lower barrier to promos and advertising than the Internet" 4) “research suggests that 20 to 29 is the best age bracket for Web advertising” So what are you waiting for??? If you product or services are targeted towards the 20 - 29 age group... advertise online, it's relatively cheaper, and apparently more effective. :D Related post: Why companies should advertise in blog

Interview Number 3
I have just finished interviewing Team Chill of Boyztrek. It was draining but also loads of fun. Chill is more light-hearted than Corpo. Fun defines their friendship and the way they play. Ding Lao, the team's mentor was with them. Ding brought with him BhoyMax Julakit, Topher Lopez, and Burnz Flores. Later on, Cocoy Villaroman and sixth man Louie Narshall also arrived. Only Yuki Perez was not available for the interview. Watch out for the complete write-up over at my DotA Blog.

Interview Number 2
I just finished interviewing a local DotA team. And it was tiring. The guys from CORPOration (tag line: When we play, we mean business.) were so hyperactive. Ding Lao, who was Interviewee number 1, was there to accompany the guys. CORPO was represented by team leader Jay Arabia, with members Jeztah Ching, Badz Bajado, and Chian Coronel. Other members Duke Dalumpines and Rioren Padama were unavailable. The guys were very much willing to answer my questions. And they were not all shy. HAHA! Watch out for the article on CORPOration over at my DotA Blog. ;)
