New blogbase for Pete

About a week ago our blogging councilor, Hon. Peter Laviña, has transferred his home blog to WordPress. For those of you who haven't yet, please update your blogrolls to reflect this URL: http://ptlavina.wordpress.com. In a big way I'm happy that he did, because WordPress is a proven and powerful platform. Makes me wonder, though, why he didn't just get his own domain and hosted service....

But I'm also sad that Councilor Pete has abandoned Funchain. This SNS -- which also offers its own blog medium -- was created by a Dabawenyo, Jason Banico, so it's something that we should be proud of. Unfortunately, it's been experiencing some technical problems, and that's why the good councilor felt he had to transfer to something more stable.

But I'm pleased to report that, in the Davao Blogspace, we still have two fervent advocates of Funchain: tj_brewed and Mo. Also, very recently I corresponded with Jason regarding a problem with Funchain's feeds, and he acted on it post-haste. So there's still hope, folks!

Here's another new blog by Councilor Pete, a journal of his motions and actions and other -ions in the Sangguniang Panlungsod: http://lavinavotes.blogspot.com.
