I was astounded when I saw this animation at Youtube. At first I thought it was created by some amateur whiz artist who wanted to use youtube as a conduit for his pieces. Turns out the animation is created by Lev Yilmaz, a short film auteur who narrates his life using no-budget animated stick figures.Lev's protagonist reminds me of Woody Allen - a modern insecure male - self-conscious and

Continued from The Best Designed Filipino Blogs How do you create a popular blog post? The answer is: there is no pat answer. There is no secret formula, no magical talisman, no obscure password, no hidden underground tunnel that will lead to the road of fame. For blogging is an art, not science.

Last week Anton Diaz of The Awesome Planet posted a video interview of Abe Olandres. I asked Anton if he was the one who interviewed and took the video of Abe, and I got a confirmation. It was a raw and moving synopsis of Yuga and his reason for Problogging.

Since the Blog Juice Calculator doesn't include regions or countries as their categories, I decided to list the Juice of Filipino bloggers. I also divided the list by an increment of 1 for easier viewing. Google Page Rank was used as a tie-breaker.
