To PB, thank you for making Macalua.com the Pinoy Blog of the Week for August 12, 2005. Please allow me to quote the review for posterity:

Marc Macalua is a good example of a blogger who puts knowledge to good and effective use. With an educational background in Communications Technology and Marketing, and currently employed in an outsourced call center, he is imparting a combination of his education and professional experience when he writes his blog entries. He has the ideas, the has the thrust and he has the words. He is also a pioneer. Not too many Filipino bloggers want to write about the possibilities and probabilities involved in online marketing (probably because it’s a new phenomenon for many), but Marc is a believer in the internet as a viable way to earn good money. He has 5 practical Adsense tips to date, a rather interesting way to climb up the Google page rank hierarchy, a plan to cash in on Pinay celebrities… Well, that should give you an idea what Marc’s blog is about.

But c’mon, I only get a 3/5 for blog design?! Minimalism ala-Jakob Nielsen rules! ;)
