Captain's Log Stardate -318705.82
I was asked by Mr. J Angelo Racoma of J-Spot/J-Spotter to write about my comments and reviews for the i.ph blogging service. I've asked if I could write about some negative things I will see on the service. :) Here's my history about the i.ph blogging service:
I think it was a year ago when I first tried to sign up for an i.ph account. Then the thing I hated most popped into my screen before completing the sign up... IT'S A PAID SERVICE. So much for my .ph domain.
After that incident, I deleted the i.ph bookmark from my browser then continued on using my blogger service. Several months passed, then last April 5, I received an email from Mr. John Paul Aclan of Domains.PH giving me a free access to the i.ph service.

Funny thing about this email is that I found this on my SPAM folder last July 3! I thought GMail was deleting SPAM mails after 30days... hmmmm... Anyway, I tried to email him to ask if I was still qualified to avail of the FREE (freeeeeeeeeee....) service and where the hell did he find my email address. Whenever I post something on the internet, whether comments to other blog or tagboards, I always use my super-hero email. :D My email to Mr. Aclan bounced back within seconds upon sending it.
I decided to signed up for the service and chose the address --> http://jepoy.i.ph. I was waiting for 2 days for my confirmation code but it didn't arrived. I've asked for Mr. J Angelo's help. He asked to sign up again but I forgot. When I tried to register for my domain again, it was already taken! (Y&*%*&*!!!)
So I forgot i.ph again since I was already happy with my blogger account (hugs Google). 5 days ago, I recieved a Google Talk message from Mr. Angelo asking me if I want to write about i.ph. I told him that I need to evaluate first and have a hands-on impression on the service so I signed up for my account (finally!). You may view my i.ph blog at http://j3p0y.i.ph (yung jepoy na nagsign up sa i.ph... kung hindi mo gagamitin yung domain, akin na lang :D )
I'll be writing my reviews and comments within the next couple of days. So far, i.ph is a mix of WordPress, Blogger, and TextAmerica blogging. Who knows, i.ph might be the next pinoy killer online service.
