Blogthings: Garden-Variety Tests?... NOT!!!

Blogthings has been around for many years. Many of us would recall posting their tests on our social networking sites and asking our friends to take the same tests. While the website is still generally the same, there are hundreds of new tests as well as name creations that you could try. The online tests are certainly fun to try out. They have a lot of topics to choose from, 300+ to be sure.

Here are some of the coolest quizzes I found: (with my own results, of course!)
Are You A Child of the 90's? - 64%
What's Your Japanese Subculture? - Henna Gaijin
If Your Life Was A Movie, What Genre would It Be? - Black Comedy
What Asian Country Should You Visit? - India
What's Your Inner Blood Type? - A (I'm a B, actually...)
What Kind of Coffee Are You? - A Frappuccino
What Kind of Coffee Girl Are You? - A Double Espresso
What Flavor Frappuccino Are You? - A Caffe Vanilla Frappuccino
What Women's Hairstyle is Right for You? - short and textured
What Color Hair Should You Have? - Red
What Frozen Treat Are You? - Ice Cream Sandwich
What's Your Girl Smell? - Rose
Is Your Ex Over You? - better not answer this...
What's Your Signature Makeup Look? - face paint (teehee!)
What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning? - Carefree and Passionate
The Little Black Dress Test? - Quirky

"Coco Perez" by Perez Hilton

While this may sound like a line from one of those high-end haute couture brands, that thought may not be as far fetched as it seems. Presenting CocoPerez, a new blog by celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, the same person who brought us PerezHilton.com. The latter blog serves as both personal blog and celebrity news blog of Perez (or as he calls himself, P-Nasty). The former, on the other hand, serves as a fashion blog with upcoming trends, celebrity sightings, news, all of which are related to fashion.

Why is this blog worthy of time? Mostly because Perez himself does not go by any style. I do agree with him that though he himself is not a fashion designer, he knows what looks good, what is funky, and most importantly, what is in style. Being fashion forward always seemed to be his best attribute since bursting into the blogging scene with his shrieking pink hair. Loves it, by the way.

Here are pics of the blog to get you going...

Blogs of Note

Starting a blog is quite hard. Especially if you want to have subscribers or readers. Anyhow, the requisite for creating a good blog is to have a specific topic that readers would recommend the site to those who are also looking for things within your criterion. To those who are creating a personal blog, then this does not apply. But if you are looking to commercialize and capitalize on the blog, then make sure that you plan to have one specific topic to discuss, otherwise, none of your readers will understand your concept.

Here are some blogs of note:

The Onion: Bound to Give You Tears (of joy)

The Onion is generally a website that looks like a regular news website. IT'S NOT! They have a different take on many news that may seem weird. They make it more... should I say wacky? Things get a lot weirder, and yet, somehow they make making this type of news, work!

Anyhow, there are many things to check out from their website. One of which is their daily news. The headlines are divided into: Video, Radio, Sports, Politics, World, Economy, Sci/Tech, Entertainment, Opinion, Local, and News Archive. One could also check out minor sections like:
Horoscope - think: unconventional
Statshot - makes wonderful graphs and percentage charts of ingenious ideas.
The Onion Store - commonplace items with not-so-common quotations, uses, and designs.
The A.V. Club - generally an audio-visual site that is connected (slightly) to The Onion.

Here are some samples of what you will find in the website.
Typical Headline:








Sample Statshot:








Ad for The Onion Store:








Suggested: Horoscope, Store, and Statshot just to start your morning right!

Philippines Online Shopping

With a barrage of online auction websites cropping up on the web (e.g. Ebay.ph, Auction.ph), one tends to wonder if there are other shops or stores with which you could avail online shopping from. There are many online shopping portals available by typing "online shop Philippines" on your search box but, just a reminder, the currency used here is dollars and not the Philippine peso.

Here are some online stores that you could visit for basis or for shopping:
