The Usual Suspects group also now has its own site and cool domain: www.theusualsuspects.mobi. It's where the group discusses and presents future blogging-related activities for Davao and beyond.

Shameless Plug

I knew I forgot something... Anyways, Me, Myself and I decided to start another blog and I think Im running out of split personalities in which to blog in. I usually get in character when typing up a blog, but sometimes, things just get too messy and I forget which blog Im typing on (the consequence of having more blogs than fingers on a hand).

Anyways, feel free to visit my new (one week old) blog. The tianx project. Nothing fancy, just some stuff to make you laugh, or go WTF.

Quick Evolution of Blogs

For a long time it was all right for a woman to keep a diary, but it sounded too fruity for men.

So men decided to call it a journal , now sensitive men can set down their thoughts without appearing too sensitive.

But that wasn't enough, even though they didn't want to appear too sensitive, they still wanted people to know what they were thinking, so they renamed it to blogging.

Now, Everyone knows everyone else's innermost thoughts, criticisms, likes and dislikes, but then they no longer call it a diary or a journal, but a blog. Just a change in name, and everyone's ok with it.

Isn't it time you made one for yourself?

The Usual Suspects

When our group made a splash in the Davao blogging scene last 17 March 2007, we made such a wonderful mess that bloggers started pointing fingers in our direction when people asked about blog-related activities here.

"Who organized the blog party?" "Who came up with this seminar?" "Who's bright idea is this blogging event?" And in answer: "the usual suspects."

Hence the name of this group of bloggers in Davao City, The Usual Suspects™. We are: Andrew, Dennis, Dom, Jun, Kim, Marc, and Ria (you'll find our links on the blogroll). I guess I'm the de facto head honcho of the bunch, but that's only because of generational seniority. But in terms of blogging, Andrew and Dennis surpass me by a few Zodiacs.

We come from different backgrounds, aspire to various dreams, but we are of the same mind when it comes to our goal: to enhance and push forward the Davao blogosphere. During the first-ever Davao bloggers party last March, we were pleasantly surprised that we were able to gather more than 50 people together. This gave us the inspiration to organize more stuff to do for local bloggers.

And not only that! We're also gearing up for the heightened awareness of blogging as a communications tool among the city's businesses. We've been getting requests for how-to seminars, etc. And we're going to do just that in the near future.

Care to join us?
