Misconceptions of Some Pinoys on the World of Blogging

Posted by Karlo.PinoyBlogero on June 2nd, 2007

Every time I am asked by other Filipinos on what I do on my wee hours after school and I answer them that I “Blog�, I sometimes get a reaction that is bordered on utter disbelief or with a slight hint of disapproval. These are the people who are oblivious to the current online trend or to people who seem to dislike the whole blogging concept.

I made a little research and found out that the reason for this is that there are a lot of misconceptions that Filipinos have on the blogosphere. This thinking hinders them to see the usefulness and power of blogging.

I have listed some of the misconceptions that I have gathered through a mini-survey among my non-blogging friends and colleagues. Hopefully, this article would help clear out the wrong beliefs and it may even convince others to hop in on the wagon.

Blogs are only online diaries
This is a common misconception among those non-bloggers. Although blogging did began from online diaries in the early 90s, over the past few years it slowly evolved into something of its own kind. Today, there are actually a lot of blogs that are focused on many different topics such as news, technology, consumer products, and almost any subject a blogger can tackle.

Blogs are unprofessional
Some say that blogging is not suited for having a professional web presence especially for companies. However, there are already some companies that are trying out blogging for their business. This new marketing strategy is one out of the many new ways for companies to get in touch with prospective customers. There are also some certain individuals who make use of blogs as a way to promote their profession and themselves like webmasters, graphic artists, online marketers, and the like.

Blogs are just a waste of time
Many say that blogging is just a waste of time. You pour every ounce of your strength into building your blog and the results aren’t as big as you’d expect it to be. Although this may be true in some cases, blogs doesn’t necessarily go to waste as long as you know what you are doing (i.e. proper blogging techniques, blog marketing/promotion, community building, etc.) Blogs also offers different benefits like communities, improvement of writing skills, and even earning money.

Blogs requires good writing skills
This is one the main reasons why many people are afraid to engage into blogging. Having good writing skills is indeed essential yet it is not really a requirement to starting a blog. One doesn’t need to be articulate in writing as long as you can express feelings and ideas through written form effectively. There will come a time that your writing skills will improve as your blog progresses.

***When, our teacher said that blogging is a part of his requirements, i was stunned because i don't have any idea what is blogging all about. I just heard it and believed that it was only like making a diary .. I thought it was boring and just a waste of time and money(coz i dont have internet yet). Since it was a requirement, no choice but to enter the world of blogging. (hehehe).. BUt, as days passes by, i realize that blogging is fun.. I can post everything and anything i want to share to the people around the world. Although my words and grammar are not that correct but i think its understandable..(i dont care about those judgmental people..hahaha) That's why i am always upgrading my blog so that it could be an interesting blog ..heheh(you can read in my chatbox"this blog is undermaintenance, sorry for the inconvenience.."(-_-)).. Now, i realize that i must be thankful to Sir Randy S. Gamboa for letting us enter the world of blogging...

Keep smiling...

___A Smile__

Author Unknown

A smile costs nothing, but gives much-
It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever.
None are so rich that can get along without it-
And none are so poor but that can be made rich by it.

It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give-
It creates sunshine in the home,
Fosters good will in business,
And is the best antidote for trouble-
And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value
Unless it is given away.

Some people are too busy to give you a smile-
Give them one of yours-
For the good Lord knows that no one needs a smile so badly
As he or she who has no more smiles left to give.

not an ordinary poem...

__The Road Not Taken__
By:Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth.

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same.

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

HRM&PM:is there any difference???

…Humans are an organization's greatest assets; without them, everyday business functions such as managing cash flow, making business transactions, communicating through all forms of media, and dealing with customers could not be completed. Humans and the potential they possess drive an organization. Today's organizations are continuously changing. Organizational change impacts not only the business but also its employees. In order to maximize organizational effectiveness, human potential—individuals' capabilities, time, and talents—must be managed. Human resource management and personnel management works to ensure that employees are able to meet the organization's goals. The followings define what is Human Resource Management and Personnel Management.


...The Human Resources Management (HRM) function includes a variety of activities, and key among them is deciding what staffing needs you have and whether to use independent contractors or hire employees to fill these needs, recruiting and training the best employees, ensuring they are high performers, dealing with performance issues, and ensuring your personnel and management practices conform to various regulations. Activities also include managing your approach to employee benefits and compensation, employee records and personnel policies.

*** It was clearly stated that HRM focuses on the employees and their needs in a business organization..



...Personnel Management is an administrative discipline of hiring and developing employees so that they become more valuable to the organization.

http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/personnel-management.html

***This definition states that personnel management focuses in the development of an employee..

...Human resources are the people that staff and operate an organization. Human resource management can therefore be defined as the management of an organization’s human capital.

***This defines that Human are the most important asset in a company..

...In any organization, there has to be someone concerned with the welfare and performance of persons who are a part of the operation. When an individual or a team of individuals takes on this task of seeing to programs and setting policies that impact everyone associated with the company, they are engaged in the process of personnel management.

***This states that Personnel management focuses on the welfare ,development and performance of an employee..


...Human resource management is responsible for how people are treated in organizations. It is responsible for bringing people into the organization, helping them perform their work, compensating them for their labors, and solving problems that arise" (Cherrington, 1995, p. 5). There are seven management functions of a human resources (HR) department that will be specifically addressed: staffing, performance appraisals, compensation and benefits, training and development, employee and labor relations, safety and health, and human resource research.

***It is clearly states the function of Human resource Management in a company.It doesnt focuses not only on employees, as well as their needs that must be catered..

=> Based on the above definitions, I can conclude that Personnel management is more administrative in nature, dealing with payroll, complying with employment law, and handling related tasks. Human resources, on the other hand, is responsible for managing a workforce as one of the primary resources that contributes to the success of an organization.Where personnel management once focussed on the basics; contemporary human resource management is defined by a more holistic approach to employee relations...
