A Little History About this Site
I’ve owned this domain name since 2004, back when I was still working for ePLDT. This site has gone through a series of CMS changes, from Blogger to an early version of WordPress that somehow prevented me from exporting my old entries. It’s still out there in the wild. I stopped posting in 2008.
It then stayed with the personal landing page service Flavors.me for the longest time. From 2010 to March 2014, I ran a simple blog on Tumblr but it didn’t quite fulfill me from a writing/sharing standpoint.  I decided to change it by installing Type& Grids. That didn’t work out.
This site ran on Wordpress for almost ten years (using the same theme!). Everything went swimmingly until MediaTemple migrated their services to GoDaddy in 2023. That’s when everything just fell apart (I didn’t know you could get viruses on your web server too). After my misadventure in maintaining my own piece of the web, this site is currently seeking shelter in Notion rendered almost seamlessly by Super.so. I might expand this site to reveal some digital gardens I’ve cultivated in the app.
