I don't begrudge them for that, but I always wish they do better with their free time. Hi, Sparks, in their current, impoverished state, any escape will do for them.

But they go online to "entertain" themselves - to play network games, to chat, watch porn or to try and bag foreigner partners.

Unless we are deluged by reality shows, of course. =P Good tips, BTW. Jhay, yeah, that's true.

Fast and reliable internet connection. Sure there are a lot of Pinoy bloggers, but how many have a fast internet connection at home? Telcos maybe virulent or aggressive in the marketing of their dsl or broadband services but it doesn't necessarily mean that a lot of households have one.

I'd rather spend 30 seconds reading a blog entry than sit still for 5 minutes and listen to someone um-ing and uh-ing through the same thing. Sure, there are some good ones, but let's face it, the average vlog sucks. Tips for wannabe vloggers: write and follow a script, get straight to the point, and edit tightly.
