Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2011
Last week, we had our Davao Food Appreciation Tour. It was my first time to join but Avatar Media Team has been hosting it since 2008. DFAT is a 5-day event where selected bloggers from all over the Philippines get to sample the best food in Davao.
It started with dinner for those who arrived early on May 12 at Yellow Fin Seafood and Restaurant.
On May 13, we started the day with a lunch at Trellis `n Vines, followed with a cup of coffee at Coffee Cat. Snacks were served at Mam Beb's Bakeshop. It was more of a full meal than just snacks. After all, who can say no to a lechon de leche from Beko's Biik. Delegates also had a chance to meet the local bloggers. We had a couple of hours rest before they headed to dinner that was sponsored by San Miguel Brewery Inc.
On May 14, some of the delegates went to take a dip at one of the famous beach resorts in Samal Island, the Paradise Beach Resort which was then followed with lunch in Ranchero. They also get to experience Davao's Zip Line before taking a break at Crepelato. Dinner was then served at Lachi's Sans Rival.
The following day, May 15, we were given a chance to enjoy Malagos Garden Resort's Bird Show followed with a buffet lunch at the Garden Restaurant. After which, we headed to Philippine Eagle Center for a guided educational tour. On our way back to city proper, we passed by Lola Abon's to buy some durian candies and ice cream before proceeding to Don Beppe Pizza & Pasta for dinner.
Some delegates had an early start for the last day of DFAT with a trip to Bagobo Tribe in Sta. Cruz, Davao Del Sur. By lunchtime, they were back in Davao City and we had lunch at Pixie's Sinugba. An hour later, we were seated inside Tiny Kitchen Creations for more Italian and some spanish food and lots of cakes and pastries. After three hours of rest, we gathered again at Wings and Dips for dinner before they grabbed some coffee and desserts at Cafe Demitasse.
More than just food, we also get a chance to take home items from Aromacology Sensi Inc, Sarangani Bay, Loud Plastics Creations by Maej and GeiserMaclang Marketing Communications, Inc. Transportation was sponsored by Councilor Al Ryan Alejandre and Etours Davao.
I didn't get to join all the scheduled itinerary but I'll be posting more about those that I was able to.

Facebook's New Messaging System
I logged in to my facebook account to discover that I already have a facebook email address. Nice! That account is what I use for my my website's facebook pages. I remember posting about deactivating my "personal account" in Facebook sometime last year.
Another one is the text messaging. I think (and I'm not sure since I just activated it few minutes ago) I subscribed to getting text messages when someone posts something on my wall or sent me a message. Its basically an SMS notification.
I haven't tried using them yet and I'm not sure how they work but I'll see what I can find out and if it's any good, I'll post it here. :)

New layout will just have to wait
I am so glad to receive a new set of assignments for article writing. Unfortunately, this also means that the new layout will just have to wait. I notice some problems with the search result pages which means it affected my navigation bar links. I have to revert my site to default (blog posts on homepage) and deal with the problem once I'm done with the assignment. In this case, I can focus on article writing without worrying of any other problems on my website which may cause me to lose my visitors

New Layout for the Peregrinator
If you notice, my site has a new layout. What's different about this site?
First, well, the layout. If you came here through this post's link, then you haven't been to the homepage. Homepage doesn't show the blog posts. All you'll see there are widgets. Second, I've made a gallery using Flickr and Pictobrowser - I usually use picasa. Third, I've made disclaimer policy which I've yet to post a link to. Fourth, I have a new badge! :)
If you miss the grabbed badge, give me an hour or two, I'll put it back. Placed it back on the sidebar. I'm creating a page specifically for badge/link exchanges but for now this will do. Also, my feed does not updates itself in real time so I'm still trying to figure out how to change the feed widget into recent posts without the errors that the current recent posts widgets are giving me. There's more to come.
I always wanted a full website and not just a blog site (minus the extra expense on blog hosting) and I finally able to figure out how to do it in blogger. This theme will undergo several changes as I add more into it. However, it is still on beta stage so if you notice any errors/problems, please let me know. Thank you!

My First Flash Experience
I've been trying my hand at Adobe CS5 but have been avoiding Flash. I just thought it was too complicated for me. Yesterday, I decided to give it a try and although I'm already half way through a very simple website [minus the content], it drained me of all my reserved energy and I ended up sleeping on the couch (too tired to move to my room) *lol*
I couldn't figure out [nor do I have the strength to look for the answers] on how to embed it here. In case it doesn't show up in your end and you want to check it and give me some feedback/suggestion/advice, I posted the link below. :)

Switch to Intense Debate Comment Form
Everybody loves Intense Debate Comment Form because it looks better than the default comment form and it is easy to use.
However, there are instances when Intense Debate Comment Form doesn't work with our templates. An online friend, iCleverClogs, found herself in this dilemma and I got curious because I was planning to switch to Intense Debate soon. I used her template in my demo site and looked for solution myself. Before I enumerate the steps I took to install Intense Debate into her template, there are few things I need you to remember:
1. RULE OF THE THUMB: before doing anything else, back up your template.
2. This only works if you want Intense Debate comment forms in ALL your posts and not just new ones.
3. If you want a 'dofollow' comment form, activate the 'CommentLuv' plugin first.
4. Try this ONLY IF you can't seem to get the Intense Debate Comment Form to work in your template (trust me, it's way easier to install it using the steps outlined in Intense Debate Website.)
First, go to your Intense Debate Dashboard (My Account )> Manage Blogs/Sites>click "Site Key" below the site where you want to install the comment form then grab your "IntenseDebate site acct". Save it somewhere. You'll use it near the end of this tutorial.
Go to your Blogger Dashboard>Design>Edit HTML> click on "Expand Widget Templates".
To keep the number of comments updated, look for this code:
Change it to:
To change the comment form. Look for this code:
Change [INTENSEDEBATE SITE ACCT #] to the number you copied from your Intense Debate Account
Click Save Template.
Intense Debate doesn't have pop-up comment form and since we inserted the code to the embedded one, you'll still be able to get Bloggers' default pop-up comment form if you decide to change your settings.
