What is tigang?

“Tigang”, a filipino word with a deeper meaning for “DRY and thirsty”.

Bakit nga ba tigang ang pinili naming original name ng PinoyME?

Ito kasi ang palagi nating nadidinig sa mga taong nasa ibang bansa upang maghanapbuhay para sa pamilya. Madalas ito lalo na kapag galing ka sa Middle East o sabihin nating Saudi Arabia.

Maraming ibig sabihin ang tigang kung iisipin mo. Puwede natin sabihing Homesick lang kaya mo sinasabing tigang. Pero mas madalas nating isipin na ang tigang ay dahil sa walang Sex at sabik na sabik makakita ng babae. Kaya nga kapag nakakakita tayo ng babaeng hindi nakatakip ang mukha o kababayan nating babae, parang ayaw mo alisin ang mata mo sa pagkakatitig sa kanya. Iisipin mo nga minsan, “Paano ko kaya siya makikilal?”

Ikaw kabayan? Tigang ka na din ba?

To all members of PinoyME,

We would like to apologize for the recent technical difficulties experienced as we are undergoing systems upgrade and database updating. These measures are undertaken for the betterment of the site and for the organization. Thank you and have a good day.

Every time I read the news, turn on the television, or open any business magazine, I always see and hear about the world’s dwindling economy – how all the businesses in the world lay-off employees to cut costs, how salaries are going down while prices and expenses are going up, and how day by day thousands upon thousands of people end-up in the “Bum” list of jobless folks. This may be the primary reason why former company workhorses now turn to the internet to work at home and earn a living online. If you try and look at most of the job openings for online bloggers, you will see that most of blog freelancers are paid by the “number of articles submitted” – rare would you see job openings that would pay you monthly or with a fixed retainer. And as a typical paid-blogger, you should always bear in mind to write fast so you could finish a lot of jobs at the least possible time.

Here are some tips to write quality blogs with the least possible time.
A writer should:

1. Spend a good deal of time to read up on the topic at hand – A writer should internalize the subject of the article which is in my opinion should comprise at least 50% of the job allottment. He or she should also read related blogs about the topic in order to see the “flow” of the topic.
2. Create a deadline or timetable for the completion of the project – in my experience, posing deadlines will often make your mind more active. Writers tend to get lazy and get more distracted if deadlines are not present to act as guides.
3. Smile – Smiling often boosts a writer’s morale and gives him or her positive outlooks. Feeling sad or having problems makes your mind wander and keeps you agitated enough to bring your thinking to a sense of confusion.
4. Write in a well-lit room – A dark room makes you feel sleepy and tends to “render you unconscious” sometimes.
5. Remember your homekeys – a refresher course of “Typing 101″ will go great lengths and will enable you to upgrade your typing skills to its fullest potential.
6. Always keep a glass of fresh drinking water by your side – water keeps your brain Oxygenated allowing it think faster and work quicker. Yes, Coffee keeps you awake and on your toes, however it agitates your brain cells too much that most of brain’s neurons get a large increase in electronic impulses which could cause confusion, tension, and stress.
7. Last but not least – Think of the Blog, Not the Money earned in selling it – always keep in mind that you are writing articles; works of art read by millions of people around the globe. Write fast but always maintain the qualities of your articles. Writing fast could earn you lots of dollars, but hey, Leonardo Da Vinci did not finish the “Mona Lisa” in an hour.

We are now using latest plug-ins of vBulletin and Wordpress.

This mod bridges your Vbulletin users over to Wordpress. You can also use Vbulletin as your comment engine instead of the spammy one built into Wordpress. You can display the comments inline in your post. You need not use the comment feature, if your only interested in sharing users.

You can map your vBulletin Usergroups to Wordpress Usergroups and those users will then be recognized as registered Wordpress users.

For example, user “Joe” registers at your forum and logs in. Joe then clicks on your Wordpress page. Joe is instantly added to the Wordpress user base with the permissions you set for his usergroup. In otherwords, if a user comes over belonging to the “Registered User” group, you can select that he is placed in the Wordpress “Subscriber” usergroup.

If you change a users group from vbulletin, it will automatically change in Wordpress.
