Cloudswyft Systems Founder at Vigattin Radio Show of Radyo Inquirer

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Dann Angelo De Guzman, founder of Cloudswyft Systems, was our special guest at the Vigattin Radio show of Radyo Inquirer DZIQ 990 AM. Cloudswyft is a software company which specializes in developing customize platforms that companies can use to run evaluation programs, simulation exams and training modules that can really test the technical capacity of a person.

Also on phone patch was Dr. Pablo Manalastas, professor of Computer Science at the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City who implored on everyone to participate as groups or individuals who would help in evaluating the Smartmatic source codes.

The evaluation of the source codes are felt crucial by many because it will define how secure and reliable the operation of the counting and processing of votes during the elections. However, according to Dr. Pablo, becoming a source code evaluator is voluntary work without any compensation or perks. Also, certain restrictions and security procedures are becoming a deterrent for many who would like to participate.

Most of the hour was dedicated in listening to Dann relate his startup success story and how he persisted to follow his visions, how he persuaded his investors, how he has grown from being just a one-man company to a team, to reach his current status right now.

We reached a point where we asked Dann what he thinks about students who are thinking of dropping out from school when a great opportunity comes. He stated that the main reason why we study hard is to gain enough credentials and knowledge to get a good job so we can be assured of a well-compensated future. When there is a great idea on hand that might give us a great chance to succeed, you really have to weigh in your decision if you would like to play safe with having a college education, or to pursue the rare opportunity to become your own boss running your own business.

Wazzup Pilipinas Founder Was Special Guest at Youth Power Radio of DZME

 

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Your Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas, Ross Del Rosario, was a special guest at the Youth Power Radio show at Kinse Trenta DZME 1530 AM anchored by Mico Guapo and with segment hosts Noemi Lardizabal-Dado and Jane Uymatiao, who are also among the well-known bloggers of the Philippine blogging community.

Ross was personally invited by The Voicemaster himself, Pocholo Gonzales, the founder of the radio show which is just one of the many radio shows he produces across several other radio stations. Pocholo's shows are mostly anchored by the youth themselves who are all passionately volunteering their time and talent to become a voice for the youth.

Who is more appropriate to share discussions relative to the youth but by the youth themselves who are both emotionally and socially hyper to broadcast their opinions and sentiments over AM radio.

Mico interviewed our founder about his life and work as a blogger and how he has overcome the struggles and issues that proliferated during his early years in the blogging community. Our founder mentioned some of the accusations thrown at him by irate fellow bloggers who were simply just envious of the achievements of our founder.

Wazzup Pilipinas has grown so fast even before it was recognized as a Top Emerging Influential Blog way back 2013. It has collaborated with so many brands, companies, organizations, and even colleges and universities, to become the fast-rising and multi-awarded Filipino community blog site is is right now. It has received so many awards from different award-giving bodies that there are some envious bloggers that have even suspected it to be buying awards. But we all know the truth behind all of these negativities.

Christmas Musical and Tree Lighting Kick Off the Holiday Season at Crosswinds Tagaytay

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Your Pambansang Blogger ng Pilipinas was invited to witness the grand Christmas Tree lighting at Crosswinds Tagaytay which was the highlight of their pre-holiday season celebration entitled "Christmas Musical" - a musical concert welcoming the holidays featuring lots of our favorite Christmas songs sang live by astounding performers. 

With the "BER" months already signifying the nearing of Christmas day, Crosswinds Tagaytay is kicking off the holiday season early by holding the event on October 17, 2015 at the lavish Brittany Corporation, the high-end luxury arm of Vista Land Group of Companies, featuring a first class luxury resort with several distinct enclaves that features Swiss-homes-inspired residences boasting a majestic Tagaytay landscape.  

Before the countdown to the 10-ft Christmas Tree lighting, several Christmas songs mixed with the cool breeze of the Tagaytay winds as performers serenaded everyone who attended the event. The impending "Lando" typhoon did not stop the celebration. The rain may have been a bit of a hassle but the spirit of Christmas was a lot stronger than any storm. We were glad that the storm did not escalated to a point where it was no longer possible to celebrate. We were in luck that the rains were merely a drizzle, and that the crowd were able to celebrate with us.

Santa Claus may have gotten a little wet, but he continued to be jolly and accommodating for all ages who wanted to get photo ops and selfies with him. He also inclined to my request of saying the iconic "Wazzup Pilipinas" greeting on video added with his very own Christmas greeting. The big fat man in red and white suit even joined the all-boys performers as he danced on stage while they sang "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" immediately after the lighting and the several minutes long fireworks which lighted the sky with amazing sparks that illuminated the gloomy and bad-weather night sky.
