Barrio Siete daw is not a blog
Do you agree that Barrio Siete is not a blog? If so, then, what are we?! Me nag-email to me. Said he: Barrio Siete is not a blog. Huh?! So, kung hindi kami blog, di mga kling-on kami? Hahaha! Charing lang! Eto laman nang telegrama nya:
“para po sa akin, hindi ko po makoconsider na blog ang barriosiete. yung website ko po, blog po ang tawag ko dun. pero kung ikukumpara ang website ko sa website ninyo, malayo ang diperensya. para tawagin na parehong blog ang mga website natin, hindi po ako makakapayag.”
“for a lack of a better term po, para sa akin, ang BarrioSiete ay isang “internet magazine” or “e-mag“. titignan ko po kung pwede ko ito gawing term paper kaso hindi na po ako nagaaral e. baka pag nagenrol po ako sa professional schools, magamit ko po ang concept.” SOURCE
The blogger did not really say clearly why Barrio Siete is not a blog. But lemme ask you. What’s your position? Is Barrio Siete Dot Com a blog? Or an Internet Magazine?

Reynz, before I answer him, I want to know from him his description of a blog. Not an entry from Wikipedia or Meriam. I want to know his personal description of it.
he did not say Rob. basta ganun ang sabi nya. so it’s just a comparison of his blog and that of Barrio Siete.
I see so, it’s his/her own comparison. But does it really matter if Barrio Siete is a blog or an internet mag? I think what’s important is how people consume the message and how you help readers understand the message. Another important thing is kung marami natutuwang readers.
Ok, I will agree. Barrio Siete is not a blog. It will be the home page of the barriotic internet citizens in a few years time. Agree?
agree!
Bakit sya nag-object na B7 is a blog?
hindi nya sinabi and there was no indication either dun sa sinulat nya sa blog nya. i’d like to know also.
Palagay ko naiinggit lang ang blogger na yan.. baka kulang sa pansin kaya nagpapapansin.
kahit maikling panahon pa lang ako sa blogsphere, ay marami na rin akong observations, may mga blogger na sa kagustuhan nilang mapansin ay mambulabog sa ibang site para mapunta sila at syempre tataas ng bahagya ang traffic nila.. hindi po ba?
This is what you call as cheap social engineering. Yung mga nangaaway sa reynz op kors, cheap social engineers.
hindi naman siguro naiinggit. i guess, baguhan sya and he has his own definition of blog. i guess he got confused dahil sinabi nya na he found out about the blog noong Cory Aquino. isang linggo ba naman nateng iblog yon – well dahil nga we were on a mourning period then.
oo nga.. ako, dalawa lang ata entry ko tungkol dun sa Cory Aquino.. magkaibang araw pa. dito sa BarrioSiete. sa loob ng isang araw, apat-lima nga ang entry..
tama po.. naiinggit po ako sa website ninyo. andami pong bumibisita. andami pong nagbabasa.
kahit sino naman po, gusto niya meron magbasa ng website niya di po ba?
kumpara sa BarrioSiete.. kulang talaga ako sa pansin. wala nga akong Alexa stats e.
Rob, me mga cheap palang engineers ano?
So ano tawag dun? cheapgineer? he he he
Engineer din ako pero hindi ako cheap.. nya ha ha ha
HOY hahaha! ano ba kayo! ba’t negative agad! malay mo, nag-tatanong lang naman yong tao hehehe ano baa!
peacekeeper ngaun c reynz!haha =) nasanay cla on a defense or offense mode! ako din kanina un naisip. baka nga ngtatanong lang..
Bwahahahahahaha
B7 is still a blog. collective bloggers lng ang nagpopost and what we post are still ordinary blogs like what we are posting in our own sites.internet mag e iba na yon. me mga date of issues yon parang ordinary magazine, everything is edited like ordinary magazines as well, ska walang commenting. bka npagkamalan lang na internet mag kc mgaganda ang posts! hahaha.
i like that Chi, i guess i would assume na dahil saksakan tayong ganda eh napagkamalan tayong e magazine and we’re not.
i did not even realize that.
all the entries in here are not edited, ‘cept for sexual innuendos and other hate or violent words. other than that, walang editing dito unless nag-habulan nang dos por dos hahaha
korak ka dyan kapitana! wahehe. ubod tyo ng ganda! hahaha.
Well, kung hindi ito blog ano ba tawag? Komiks? Charing!
Hindi rin naman ito e-mag kasi magaganda kami dito. Lol. Ang e-mag kasi as far as I know eh online equivalent ng mga published hard copies. Example: British Vogue magazine, ang e-mag ang Vogue.uk. Correct me if what I think is wrong ha.
Puede rin kaya na ang Barrio Siete ay isang blogazine? According to urban dictionary ay researched based ang isang blogazine. Pero there are posts here na originally written so hindi rin blogazine.
To the letter sender, ano ba dapat ang tawag?
parang sulat lang ng isang high school. turuan nga natin ng blogging 101 ang batang ire ng maliwanagan.
teka lang po.. masyado naman yung high school.
siguro grade3 po.. hindi pa po talaga ako magaling sa blogging. para sa akin, grade3 lang po ako sa blogging.
blogging101.. parang ang hirap.. pang college na ata po yun. basics of blogging sana gusto ko matutunan.
just a comment on this. sana wag naman masyado harsh.. i think that was just a misunderstanding to both parties. try to get the opinion of the other party as well.
i know his intentions are clear. and i personally think that this became a big issue because of one opinion doesn’t match another person’s opinion. but still both of them are opinions!
Thanks!
a rose in any name is still as sweet.
ke blog ke e-mag, ke tambayan, at home ako dine!
i’d say when you look at the front page ng barrio eh mukha nga siyang magazine. kaya lang it’s still a blog. ibang iba naan talag ang magazine eh. pero for someone to say that, the barrio council and the barrio kapitana must be doing something good na masabing magazine siya.
dapat may definition sya ng blog para naman ma justify nya kung bakit hindi nya matatawag na blog ang B7.
“para tawagin na parehong blog ang mga website natin, hindi po ako makakapayag.” e di wag! sapilitan ba ito?
para po sa isang blogger (who considers himself as a newbie grade3 blogger) wala po ata akong karapatan para magdefine ng isang concept.. pero pipilitin ko po. watchout na lang po sa blog ko.
Blog definition, research by Tiyo Paeng.
Noun
S: web log, blog (a shared on-line journal where people can post diary entries about their personal experiences and hobbies) “postings on a blog are usually in chronological order”
An Internet website that allows users to reflect, share opinions, and discuss various topics in the form of an online journal while readers may comment on posts. Entries typically appear in reverse chronological order.
Blogging = An entry in a blog.
Verb
S: blog (read, write, or edit a shared on-line journal)
i agree with you mudra, palagay ko kinder pa lang siya sa blogworld, heniway, whatever you call it, dumadami ang ating readers, tumataas ang ranking at maraming taga ibang barangay ang dumarayo
Blog po tayo. Dahil agree ako kay Mel na most E-Mags have a hard copy counterpart. Ang mga E-mags pati a mostly ay may isa o dalawa sa sumusunod.
1. Manuscript submission through an editor
2. May Editor
3. May Manuscript Guidelines
4. All articles may or may not be compensated (mostly compensated)
5. Kapag maga-submit ka ng Articles it should be pre-queried for approval of the editor. Query Letter is always required.
6. Can be denied or approved by the Editor
7. Response time on queried Articles are usually 3 weeks to 6 months
8. Publishing time on submitted articles are usually 4-8 months.
Wherein Blogs naman do not have these rigid conditions, even B7 have a few people to “monitor” publishing but not with editorial responsibilities. Dahil nga assumed na mga bloggers na ang ating mga writers, alam na nila ang kalakalan ng blogging and forwarding write-ups. The key point is the Editorial Pool. If this is an E-Mag we are terribly lacking in that area. Dahil nga dito, it’s a writer’s responsibility what he or she writes.
Plus it doesn’t necessarily mean na gumamit ka ng “magazine” styled theme, eh E-Mag na ito. It’s just a theme. Anyone can use it. It’s just the styling.
Hello Po..
sobra ka naman po reynz. hindi ko po ineexpect na ilalagay mo kaagad sa website ninyo ang inquiry ko. gusto ko lang po din sana mabasa ng mga readers ninyo yung entry ko sa blog ko about BarrioSiete. sobrang salamat. parang dadami ang hits ng website ko dahil dito.. maraming maraming salamat. Social climbing at its best ako. ahhaha
kaso reynz, hindi mo nilagay dyan sa entry mo yung website address ko. hindi tuloy nila mabasa yung writeup ko. ahehe.. well pa click na lang po ng pangalan ko then read up po. salamat.
inaamin ko po. ako po ang matapang na nagsasabi na magkaiba ang website ko at ang BarrioSiete. Siguro po, ang gusto ko lang mangyari e magkaroon po tayo ng distinction between websites like mine compared to websites like yours.
ang alam ko po kasi, marmaing klase ng aso. meron pitbull, meron german shepherd, meron din mongrel. yun ay dahil nag evolve na ang mga aso.
tingin ko po, nage-evolve na rin ang blogosphere at kahit na ipagpilitan natin na parehong BLOG ang tawag sa mga website natin, nung tinanong ko ang nanay ko, sinabi niya na magkaiba daw ang mga website natin.
nung tinanong ko siya kung bakit, ang sagot niya “ewan”.
sana po wag ninyo i-impose sa akin na ako ang gumawa ng definition ng BLOG.
maraming salamat. Social Climbers RULE!
promking,
It will be better if you, yourself interact with the readers and writers more often. That will be much better than going ahead and making blunt statements like hindi-maituturing-na-blog-ang-barrio-siete. That’s the root of social climbing. Social climbers, according to Reyna’s definition are not the one who just barge in through the door without knowing who and what are behind that door. Social climbing, according to Reyna’s definition is more on interaction and exchanging ideas.
SO how you will work on the definition of a blog? That’s the proper question to ask of you since you are the one who is saying that barrio siete is not a blog. It will be better if the rest of the barrio siete peeps know your definition of a blog. Different individuals have different perspectives and definitions about things they see and feel. It will also help if you could share to us your perspective why barrio siete cannot be called as a blog.
My own take on this matter: I can still call barrio siete as a blog, collective blog that is. The site is composed of bloggers who regularly make posts for the barrio which appears 4-5 times a day. We dont have strict publishing schedules as compared to an e-magazine. We dont have an editorial staff as compared to an e-magazine you are saying. We rely on the web as our publishing site. Barrio Siete is driven by the hard work of the writers and Barrio Council. Maybe, Huffington post will fit into the definition of an e-magazine but not Barrio Siete.
Anyhoot, I take your point on the evolution thingy. Of course, the only constant thing in the world is change. Therefore, as Barrio Siete goes, you and the rest of the blogosphere will see the changes and those changes will take us, as a collective blog to newer heights. Who knows what Barrio Siete can become in the next months or years.
Ahhh ikaw pala pre ehhh..Anyway, di naman natin kailangan i classify kung ano mga bahay natin. As long as we give value to our readers, it really doesn’t matter. If we focus more on classifications instead of value, we will end up nowhere.
Sample na lang. When blog rockstars started to evolve, they said that one thing to drive traffic and create a following is to bring value to readers. Define value. Ito ba ay dapat written in trying-hard intellectual english? NO!Useful information, entertaining, opinion, etc are things that readers value. They pick up something.
If readers go back to your site at bandang huli ay nagiging home page na nila, I assume there’s value in what you write.
So sa blog, should it be define by the format of the articles or the layout of the site? Gamit ng Barrio ang Arthemia. One of the nice magazine layouts for Wordpress but it is still a Blog. Blog Sweet Home.
And maybe the reason why La Kapitana del Barrio posted your inquiry is to promote transparency sa Barrio. If you need to voice your opinion, let it be heard. Let people know about it. Why? Eh para naman mapag usapan natin. Malay mo others can learn a thing or two.
i take this inquiry as a compliment for the barrio.
I concur. This is a great compliment because they exert so much effort emphazing something. But hey, ano ba definition niya actually?
As for me, B7 is an informative blog. Period.
Snow,
Ang kilay. hahahha…baka lumampas na sa noo ang kilay mo. Hahhahahah.
hindi naman masyado tumaas, medyo kalahati lang ng noo. ^_^
blog din ito kasi may mga nag sheshare ng mga personal na bagay na nangyayari sa kanilang buhay.
ke blog o kung ano pa man, basta sikat at binabayo si alexa, OK na yun!
Dencios, Like yung Posting mo about “Condom” blog din yun di ba? he he he
hahaha. natawa ako.
oo tyo paeng,
blog yun na may condom
ROFL!
Basta para sa akin, Ang Barrio siete ay masasabing Blog..
Kung sino mang mag Opposed “baliBLOGin ko ng bote.. jowk! he he he
Peace!
This is a compliment for barrio siete. So I hope everyone can see the intentions of the writer. Hope you read his writeup for barrio siete so that YOU will know.
I think I would have to agree with him because a blog TO ME is an opinion of one person. Barrio Siete have several writers contributing to the page. para ngang magazine or dyaryo! I don’t think it is an attack pero all of you have amazing talents kaya nga palagi kayong inaattack ng mga engkanto dahil sa mga abilidad ninyo… lalo na yang si reyna at buraot. I love them both!
uy extra pa ako. haylafyu too!
I actually like Mel’s description of blogazine. There’s a good tone to it dahil it is a blog but we do have a lot of topics for discussion here that isn’t written by one person. True, wala tayong editor and it’s a contribution of many bloggers kaya parang apt yata yung term na blogazine.
And I think Snow was right when she stated that it is a compliment. Kasi dalawang taon na rin akong mahigit na nag-ba-blog pero hindi ganito kalakas yung mga blogs ko. To each his own lang talaga siguro.
