Recent events in the Pinoy Blogosphere has led Alex Maximo to explore the similarities of the so-called “blogging elite” in the Pinoy blogosphere and the principalia of the Philippines during the Spanish colonization. Juned, however, begged to differ. Juned notes that the perceived similarities between the principali and the “blogging elite” does not exist merely between the “elite” and the principalia but throughout the blogging community in general and the principalia.

I think Alex presents a valid observation, one that Juned has promptly and adequately debunked.
