Filipino are Texters Freak

Written by julius on February 22, 2008 – 12:21 am -

Texting refers to the abbreviated form of writing used on mobile phones and pagers with tiny screens and keyboards. It is typing and sending people very short message using the SMS (short messaging service), it is cheaper and often more convenient than actually calling everyone you know. You can send the same text message to multiple people so the technology can be used to reach many people at once, so it takes less time. You can even access somebody no matter where they are at work, at home, or they’re walking down the street.

Here in the Philippines, text messaging helped topple a government in 2001. SMS messages directed 700,000 demonstrators to Manila’s People Power Shrine to demand the removal of the former President Joseph E. Estrada, who stepped down in favor of his vice president Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The 2004 election also saw SMS-used to try to influence votes including hoax that Arroyo has fleeing the country.

Every generation has its own technology. Young people discovered SMS and made it theirs. Text is really driving all the people especially the youngster who love the idea of doing something a little bit secret. It’s really very much a young person’s communication. Its popularity took all network operators by surprise.

Texting has been an “accidental revolution” and a purely costumer-driven. Texting is an extremely intimate medium and give you the ability to share moments with people – that’s one of the joys of texting.

I have three reasons why texting is very popular in our country. The first one is of course it is cheaper than making voice calls. The second is that we Filipinos love to keep in touch with everybody that we almost know. Constantly, that goes to the people in Manila, but even more for those who are in the Provinces or in abroad. Almost all of the people here in our country are working overseas, and for them texting is the cheapest way to communicate with their families at home. And thirdly, we Filipinos love to meet new people and texting gives us the opportunity to do so. What can I say it has become a part of my everyday life.

Let’s Talk about Internet Business

Written by julius on February 21, 2008 – 4:27 pm -

The internet has dramatically impacted the business world in the last few years and this trend is certainly flourishing well today and in the future.

Overt seven million people have access to the World Wide Web with more and more added everyday. That’s why nobody, especially those business minded person who wanted their

Businesses to succeed and generate more profit, just can’t afford to ignore this many potential costumers.

What is a website? How can it be very useful as a tool in business?

A website is space on a computer where anyone who subscribes can say,” This is me, this is what I do, or what I am interested in, what I know, or what can I sell you”. It is virtual electronic brochure and source of information about you or your business available to the whole world 24 hours a day. Within the website, each “screenful” of information is called a page. Pages may contain text, or graphic images, or even photographs, sound and video.

Having a well designed web site will not only be beneficial to one’s business in today’s electronic world but will also help save money. One of the reasons that small businesses go online is that a well designed website for even a one-man business can have just the same presence on the web as a multinational corporation. Communication, marketing and printing costs are lower too, as is the cost of using full color. Larger businesses see it as a way to reinforce not only their brand
(which is becoming increasingly important), but also as a way to reinforce an image of leadership and potential. All businesses see it as the key to keeping ahead of the competition. Establishing and maintaining a website can be relatively inexpensive and far more versatile and interactive when compared to other advertising mediums.

So if you are an aspiring entrepreneur wishing to establish a high profitable and successful business on the near future, you better start to study Web development right now!
