Several articles on the Philippine Daily Inquirer have been talking about the flooding caused by Typhoon Ondoy in Metro Manila on Sept 26, 2009 like this one that says nine hours would have made a difference and this one where it says flood forces developers to back off. I especially like this one where Marikina Mayor says they have learned their lessons.

All I can say is, “Ngayon pa!”

Hello everyone. My name is Ade, and I own this blog. Please don’t hurt me.I’ve spent three years of my life dedicated to a blog chronicling my various failures while at the same time becoming the largest repository of dick jokes on the internet. When a website’s tagline is “your daily dose of retard,” it’s pretty obvious that this site won’t imbue you with life’s lessons upon reading its contents. Of course, if you consider open letters to people who constantly touch the peepees and weewees of other people on trains important life lessons. It is, for meI think there’s a red flag or two somewhere that says this blog isn’t really something that adds anything meaningful to the blogosphere.

While browsing through some FB posts, I found a video of a foreigner singing OPM. Obviously, for someone having an American twang, it would be hard to learn pronouncing Filipino words correctly, but these people have done a cool job of singing OPM’s. The last video , though not sung in OPM lyrics, the Harana in Nihongo version is also very cool and catchy. =) [Read more...]

While Metro Manila residents braced itself for the impacts of Typhoon Pepeng, the temperature lowered as the winds grew stronger. I wanted to keep warm but did not want another cup of coffee as I was already plagued by a bunch of nerves just by monitoring the weather. And then I thought, hot chocolate would be perfect!

Our CEO Franklin Naval has been doing a yeoman’s job of updating the maps that are featured on the “Help for Typhoon Victims in the Philippines” landing page hosted by Google. The Philippines is now bracing for the onslaught of a category 5 typhoon named “Pepeng” (international code name: Parma) just right after “Ondoy” (international name: Ketsana) it devastated not only the Philippines but Vietnam, Cambodia and even Laos. I don’t think Franklin can go on forever updating the maps so I’ll go through a walkthrough to show everyone HOW EASY this is and if we distribute the load to 20-40 people who know how to blog, this will be over in 10 MINUTES TOPS!

NOTE: Click on the photos for high-resolution

The first step is to have access to the spreadsheet (make sure you have an invite to EDIT via a GMail address – twitter me @pageman or @franknaval to get an invite). You’ll see the spreadsheet like this:

The cells with red circles are the relevant information needed – the last two cells on the right under On Map? and Who? indicates if the missing persons have been mapped already (NOT YET) and who mapped it (BLANK FOR NOW)

To find the Missing Persons Map, you can just Google “Ondoy” and you should be able to see the Google landing page for Ondoy – you should see several layers – what is of interest to you would be the Missing Persons Layer

Once you click on “Missing Persons” it should bring you the Typhoon Ondoy Missing persons page
