The 2007 Philippine Blog Awards will be kicking off this afternoon. I, on the other hand, will be heading off this morning. I’m going on a road trip, but unlike many of you, I’m not heading to the RCBC Plaza Auditorium. Nope, I’m heading to Batangas.
I know where I’m going - and I don’t need a map to get there. I don’t need directions. Some of you, on the other hand, might still be lost. Fear not - the organizers of the Philippine Blog Awards have posted a comprehensive guide to getting to the 2007 Philippine Blog Awards.
Whether you’re driving or commuting, these directions will guide you there. Whether you’re coming from North, South, East, West, or whatever direction, this guide will get you there. You have to make sure, of course, that you have your event ticket. Otherwise, no matter where you come from, you’re not getting in.
I’d love to say I’ll see you there, but like I mentioned, I’ll be out of town. I hope you enjoy the awards though, and make sure you post some pictures.

This morning I found out that drivebyshooter.net has been nominated for The 2007 Philippine Blog Awards under the Technology category.
To whomever nominated me, I don’t know why you did that, but thank you - I’m honored. I don’t quite think I’m in the class of some of the other nominees, but I’m not complaining - I’m in pretty good company.
I probably will never quite believe that drivebyshooter.net is one of “the finest blogs in the Philippines.” It would be presumptuous of me to do so. I just blog, like I’ve mentioned before, to connect with others. I’m sure you have your own reasons.
Maybe next year, I’ll be a bit less modest. Then again, maybe I’ll never really get used to the recognition. It doesn’t matter though. I’ve touched at least one person out there - and that person went out and said that my site was one of the finest. That’s more than enough recognition for me.

Yes, it’s time for another edition of Link Love. If you’re wondering if there’s a method in this madness, keep wondering. When you come up with an answer, tell me. I’d like to know too. Before that though, check out these links. The theme for today, blogging.

I just installed a few new plugins and widgets, including Alex King’s Popularity Contest (download here) and justaddwater.dk’s Popular Posts Widget. The former is a Wordpress plugin that “keeps a count of your post, category and archive views, comments, trackbacks, etc. and uses them to determine which of your posts are most popular.” The latter is a widget that lets me instantly show the results of that contest on my sidebar.
As I’m writing this entry, my stats tell me that my top post is something about getting trapped at the Blog Parteeh. Isn’t that so last month? The buzz should now be about the upcoming Philippine Blog Awards, right?
Anyway, I’ll be keeping track of which posts you like from now on. I feel bad that I didn’t know about this plugin when I first started drivebyshooter.net, but I’m sure I can still get fairly accurate stats over the next few months.
