What makes both Nuffnang and Hapee first class?
Both Nuffnang and Hapee are definitely first class for these "X" reasons...
1. Nuffnang and Hapee are both X-plosive!
Nuffnang gives us the best blog events and contests that make our blogging experience fun and worthwhile. Meanwhile, Hapee provides us a great, effective toothpaste which gives us an X-plosive first-class smile!
2. Nuffnang and Hapee are both X-traordinary!
The Nuffnang community do its best to produce the best possible blog ads that cater to the online market. While Lamoiyan Corporation, makers of Hapee work hard to produce the best Filipino product that can match international standards, and showing the world that we indeed are first class.
3. Nuffnang and Hapee give positive X-perience on our lives.
Through Nuffnang blogs and advertising, Filipinos online get to know more about different products and services through blogs, giving us better and more informed choices.
And while Nuffnang does its share in promoting the best products available in the market today, Lamoiyan Corporation and Hapee do their part in helping the average Pinoy get the best protection from tooth decay and cavities, at a price we all can afford, giving us healthier teeth and allowing us to live a better life.

Buy Stuff Cheap or Make Money With AyosDito!
If you are a kuripot bargain hunter or an online money maker just like me, you might want to check out and try AyosDito.ph! AyosDito is an Philippine online buy and sell site which allows you to post ads for stuff you want to sell or check out stuff you want to buy at a bargain price. And what's great about this site is that you post your ads here FOR FREE!
When it comes to bargain hunting, you can look up anything under the sun with AyosDito. Here you could try finding the best prices for a car, house and lot, digital camera, even a cheap laptop computer!
Online Selling through AyosDito
I used AyosDito for selling my stuff I don't need on several occasions. Once I sold my older MP3 player through this site because I had just won myself a new one, thanks to a contest I joined. A few hours after I posted my ad on AyosDito, I already got feedback from a lot of interested parties. Soon enough, I was able to sell my old gadget at the best price possible.
Posting an ad is very easy on AyosDito. All you have to do is fill up an ad form with your personal details and the item you want to sell.
sample of ad form that you fill-up before posting your item you want to sell...
What I like about AyosDito is that you place online ads categorized by item, AND the region and city you are from. Putting in location allows buyers and sellers to filter through the multitude of ads and take into consideration only those readily within their reach.
AyosDito doesn't just cater to segunda mano selling. You can also make free ads that sell brand new items, look for applicants and even promote your services here! If you are into retail, like selling lechon for example, AyosDito is also a great way to promote your business.
Buying Online through AyosDito
If you simply want to look for the best deals possible, AyosDito is a great place to check out! A lot of online Pinoys use AyosDito to sell their stuff, which gives us, potential buyers more and better choices.
Before looking for the best deals however, one must always consider personal requirements and the capabilities of the item you consider buying. For example, on how to find cheap laptops, before making a buy, you might want to ask yourself first "What kind of laptop do I need?" Do I need a laptop that is lightweight? with fast processing speed? big LCD screen? After knowing what you need, you can weigh in your ideal laptop with other models with similar features, and their corresponding prices. AyosDito, with its neat product listings and search options, can help you make better choices.
Kuripot people like us can always save more and make more money online through buy and sell, promoting our businesses or services, even recruit people and market ourselves online all thanks to AyosDito. Check out the AyosDito website to find out more...

Manny Pacquaio - The BIG ticket to the Philippines
Everybody is talking about the upcoming Megafight of Boxing sensation Manny Pacquiao and boxing legend Sugar Shane Mosley this coming May 8, 2011 (Philippine Time). For those of us Pinoys who are craving to see this fight happen, have we ever stopped to wonder what makes Manny Pacquiao and boxing a spectacle to watch?
Manny Pacquiao. Boxing legend, superstar, hero. His electrifying boxing style, charisma and achievements in and out of the boxing ring have made him into an international superstar.
Some of his great boxing achievements include being the first Asian boxer to win more than 5 world titles in as many weight divisions AND the first and only boxer in the world to win 8 world title divisions in as many weight classes.
His other achievements are...
1) He was given the recognition as fighter of the decade 2000-2009 by some of the most prestigious boxing associations like the Boxing Writers Association of America.
2) He was given the title Athlete of the Decade 2000-2009 by the Philippine Sportswriters Association.
3) He is the current number 1 Pound-for-Pound King according to Ring Magazine.
4) He was one of those given the title Personality of The Year by TIME Magazine for 2009.
5) he is considered as one of the most influential athletes and one of the most influential personalities in the world.
And even with all these achievements in mind, Manny Pacquiao was able to do more for the sport of boxing. Boxing is known to be a brutal sport, where the main objective is to knockout the opponent with fists trained to give lethal damage causing cuts, bruising, bleeding and sometimes bone fractures and even death.
While Manny has the skill and the strength to overcome his opponents by a significant margin, he always considered their welfare. His care for his opponents showed when he refused to knock down Antonio Margarito in his previous fight, or at times, after a knockout, he tries to help his opponent get up the canvas. In his way, Manny Pacquiao was able to humanize the sport of boxing.
"Boxing is NOT about killing each other, but about entertainment."
- quoted from Manny Pacquaio
Manny is the BIG ticket to the Philippines, a man representing the nation and a window to the beauty of our culture. He showcases to the world what being Pinoy is all about - that the Pinoy is world-class, and that we can be the best of what we can be. At the same time, he also shows the world through his actions in the ring that the Pinoy has a lot of positive values we can be proud of like determination, patience, discipline, respect for others and most of all, compassion.
Now, for those of us Pinoy boxing fans who want to watch Pacquiao and Mosley square it out live, we need not go half way around the world to enjoy the show. We can still watch them here, in the comfort of our own homes.
