After two years of hiatus, I am once again updating this neglected Technology blog of mine.
I have to be honest here. I am not really a techie person unlike most technology bloggers out there. I use the internet, yes. I do blog and i maintain a number of social media accounts. I even do some online marketing tasks for individuals and companies. I have to admit though that travel and entertainment are the two niches that I prioritize more.
Just last week, a friend of mine suggested that I try to relive this site since I kept on renewing it. Why not use it? I am planning to hire co-writers who can help me out with the contents. If you’re interested to submit, just leave a message in the comments section. I am planning to write features on several websites that caught my interest. I will also post updates on the latest mobile phones and gadgets. I will also share some of my learnings in social media marketing and search engine optimization. Hoping i’d finally get my techblogging mojo back!
