Pardon the late post. I was supposed to publish this yesterday Sunday, but I was so tired after playing several games of basketball that I immediately fell asleep when I got home. Anyways, how are you folks doing? Hope everyone’s doing fine and had a great weekend like I did. As most of you guys know, I just came back from a 2 month blogging hiatus and because of that I wasn’t able to update my blog, post updates especially this weekly feature, the Weekend Roundup that I know some of you look forward to each week. Anyways, it feels good to be back and I’m happy to be able to post another weekly roundup of links from all over the web.

@K – Thanks! I read these posts first before I include them in the roundup and only include articles which I think can benefit you, my readers.
I just recently heard of the controversy regarding the Top 10 Emerging Influential Pinoy Bloggers. If there’s any who should speak about it, it should be the organizer. Also, they should make the rules more clear and have some sort of transparency so people won’t doubt the results or accuse anyone of cheating.
I read that multiply blog post last week when a friend of mine shared the link on Facebook. My reaction was, we shouldn’t waste our time on those types of bloggers. ;)
Haha..I know what you mean and yes, those types of comments are annoying. I’m glad I don’t get those kinds of comments here.
The bottom bar/toolbar is not a plugin. I’ll be featuring it on a post tomorrow or on Fri.
Nice list. I’m reading few of them.
So what do you think of the Top 10 Emerging Influential Bloggers? I heard some people are investigating the outcome of the said contest?
Geez, that Multiply Pinoy blogger was so insensitive, dapat ipa-ban or “give a public apology” haha.
Sana meron din about “Worst Comment Ever” like, “Uyy una ako”, “First”, those comments I see on some blogs. Annoying.
The bottom bar is so neat. Is this a plugin?
@Jhay – Thanks dude! Glad to know you found some of the articles useful.
Nice roundup, I’ve picked a good post or two from this one.
@Kristen – You’re welcome and thanks for stopping by. :)
Thanks for mentioning my “Forget About It! Just Blog” post in your roundup!
