WEBSITE REVIEW: GLOO

Just tried out Gloo, one of the most recent offers from Globe Broadband. It’s a revolutionary collaboration site where you, your family and friends can interact through ‘virtual spaces’ in real time.

Creating an account is totally free - all you’ll need is a valid email address. You can sign up and create your online “scrapbook” space regardless of your ISP.

Once you sign up, you can then start working on your own space. This space is like a virtual scrapbook where you can post notes, doodle, create a to-do list, and post pictures and videos directly from your Facebook account, and the web.


What’s good about Gloo is that other users can view, play, or change your space elements in real time. It’s like having a virtual sketchpad where family and friends can interact and bond with each other even when they’re miles apart.

My Experience

I had a good time collaborating pictures and videos of my daughter. The doodling is added fun for people who love drawing and painting. I’ve already invited my techie brother and my younger sisters to my Gloo space. Pretty soon, I’m sure we’ll be using my “space” as a family message board and as a “brown” board for their Algebra lessons.



The Great Bonus
Ah, and I almost forgot, the space allows you to send 30 SMS to your contacts everyday – for FREE. However, you can only send three text messages to a friend and if he/she replies (at the cost of PhP2.50), you can then continue to send more messages via your Gloo space. You can also send the pictures on your post through MMS (PhP 5 per MMS sent)

For more information, you can inquire about Gloo at the Globe Broadband website.

Willie Revillame and his astounding form of "Respect" for Cory Aquino

Last Monday, the Wowowee TV show host Willie Revillame made one of the most astounding remarks of "respect" towards the late former President Corazon "Cory" Aquino - He angrily told his crew not to insert a video of the cortege in his show's segment "Willie of Fortune". “’Di po maganda. Nagsasaya kami dito habang nagluluksa ang sambayanang Pilipino. ’Di ko magagampanan ang pagpapatawa habang ipinapakita ang libing ng dating presidente,” Revillame said as his show was in broadcast along with the special coverage of the funeral procession following the transfer of Aquino’s remains from La Salle Green Hills to the Manila Cathedral. The day after, he came up with an apology and claimed that what he did was a sign of deep respect for Cory. Deep respect, he says. Well, that's a really awkward and inconsiderate form of respect for someone that's considered to be the Saint of the People Power revolution. Like Cory, Willie is indeed a very popular pe...
