Featured blog #9 - Well, what can I say about the blogger behind this weeks featured blog. He just received a $15 paypal cash for winning the " Best Commenter " for FBW Logo Design contest.
Blog Name: Be Kind To Us Trolls
Category/Niche: Personal
Blog Description: Living the Crazy Life Through The Eyes Of An Internet Troll
About your blog:
My blog was created for fun and not for profit.
It was conceived to satisfy my inquisitive nature.
.
It continued up to this day to challenge my quest for the very elusive answers. The intentions were to share current events and personal adventures. To vent out criticisms and frustrations against the government, society, my next door neighbors, my colleagues, and myself. To explore my impulsive creativity, or wander on my weaknesses and shortcomings as they unravel. To commend remarkable individuals or criticize those that does not conform to my standards.
It’s actually a blog about the effects of the world on my everyday life, and how I perceive them. Destructive or constructive, it doesn’t matter. It’s a blog about my unique eccentric identity.
It’s up to the readers to judge whether I am in crisis or in peace. It’s about me keeping in touch with realities and getting lost in my fantasies.
I believe almost every personal blog out there is a continuous search of the bloggers’ identity and the acknowledgement and acceptance of society.
About yourself/blogger:
My personality is a mix of all genres, with a penchant for the absurd and graphically pleasing. I’m a graduate of Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE) from the Mapua Institute of Technology (MIT). Yes, I am an Engineer. I am one of the noble semi-skilled laborers that execute the vision of those who think and dream. I am one of the Oompa-Loompas of Science.
However, I dwelt more in Information Technology in most of my existence. I became the IT professional who’s more into substance than structure, the gamer who never finishes a game because I often gets lost in the eye-candy, the frustrated musician who bought an organ and guitar but did not learn how to play it because I could play music better with a computer, and the sci-fi fanatic who would never miss pondering on the opportunity to train and experiment on people like lab rats.
What’s the inspiration behind your blog and how long has it been around?
When I started this blog, my goal was just to react to the very controversial current events happening during that time: November 2011. The time the new Philippine government, headed by Noynoy Aquino, started running after – and eventually filed charges against the corrupt leaders of the former government of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. It was pay-back time, and I wanted to be part of it, at least via online interaction.
How did you get into blogging?
I started blogging when I found Facebook as just not appropriate or enough for the ideas and criticisms I wanted to share with people. Facebook can reach so many people but it’s difficult to scroll back and forth to past and present topics because of all the other wall posts and comments. The only inconvenient thing about a Wordpress blog is people could not easily “Like” because they still need to register a Wordpress account, which is quite a hassle if they are not bloggers.
What is your favorite blog post and why?
My favorite was one of the very first blog post that I did last November 2011. It was one of the highly read during that month that inspired me to be more creative and continue with my blogging until this day. I occasionally stop when I’m too busy at work, but I always try to find time at least every once in a month to post even a simple blog entry just to keep connected with the online world: Put The Little Girl To Sleep.

While some of my blogger friends moved on to Facebook (they find it more addicting, I guess) and subsequently ignored their blogs, this guy's different, deciding to express himself more with blogging. Facebook can be chaotic sometimes, especially if you have a thousand friends... one can get dizzy with all the updates from friends, and your wall posts tend to be lost in it.
Congrats to the featured blogger for winning the Top Commenter prize.

Hello everyone! especially to all Filipino bloggers world wide. I would like to ask how can I able to reach the admin of this site because I want to be part of this blog. In addition I am also aiming to be a featured blogger like this one. I blog about OPM musics if you want to ask.
