Indianapolis is the capital of state of Indiana. It is approximately 3 hours to 4 hours drive from Chicago (184.1 miles) and less than an hour flight. My original plan was to take a train or bus going to Indianapolis but unfortunately there's no early schedule in the morning so I've decided to book a flight through American Airlines. I'm so lucky that I've got a TSA PreCheck, that means I am not removing my shoes and jacket while entering the security check machine. The flight is less than an hour and what I like in Indianapolis International Airport is their designated pick up terminal for Uber/Lyft users so I headed and follow the signs going through the parking terminal pick up. Welcome to Indy A post shared by Mitch Coladilla (@daomisyel) on Aug 2, 2018 at 8:59am PDT We're staying at Indianapolis Marriott Downtown adjacent to the Indiana Convention Center. My sister and her husband (and friends) were attending Gen Con 2018. I bo...

If you ever had a home-based IT job, you must have experienced some technical difficulties that rendered you unable to work your tasks. Maybe you've experienced a power outage at one point in time, or maybe the internet connection slowed down or even busted, or worse, your medium in getting the job done crashed. Working at home meant you won't be able to interact with people, which can get boring sometimes, having no one to talk to. Working at home sometimes mean you have to endure summer's sweltering heat, but sure you'd be lucky if it's raining because you won't have to leave the comfort and safety of your own home. But the again we'd go back to the discussion of technical difficulties the rainy day might bring. Here to save you from that dilemma is Project T Solutions , a workplace away from your workplace. To describe them simply, they are like a hotel for your office. They can provide you what you need just so you can get your work done. T...

I love attending on site seminars and virtual conferences. Some seminars I attended were mostly about Digital Marketing or Business Development and those were hosted off-site and online! I wanted to feed my brain with interesting subject matters and interact with resource speaker through questions and answers. I even helped providing a slide presentation for a SEO basics seminar in the Philippines because I am so comfortable sharing my work experience to those who would like to learn about website optimization. One of the goal at the end of each seminar is to provide you a good experience. I had one bad scenario when attending a virtual seminar where I heard loud noises at the background and the seminar was hosted on a computer shop! I hardly understand the discussion and ended up hanging up leaving the conference to my disappointment. So, make sure you have rented a good and quiet venue for the attendees to enjoy the entire program. You don't want them to leave a bad feedback on...

As we enter in digital age, work has been changed transitioning from traditional office spaces into the existence of a virtual office.

What is a virtual office and how do you find a good virtual office? Virtual office offers a complete package of office address, phone answering machine, courier services and conference rooms.

Many businesses would often want to get global, even it if it might cost quite a lot. After all, they often said that it is better to expand their business within their target location. But does this really mean that there is no worth in expanding the business without hurting their budget? The answer here is, surprisingly, a NO. You see, there are actually a lot of advantages that you can get when you expand your business and be successful. Here are some of these reasons that will likely convince you why renting serviced office space is the best option for your business. Perhaps the most obvious reason to hire a company that offers serviced and co-working space is the cost. Many of these companies often have rates that are 30-50 percent lower than their larger counterparts. And many of these can actually produce work that is at par with larger corporations. Also, you might be surprised that a large portion of the the cost that you are paying to large companies actually stems ...

Note: I added the post event update below Tomorrow, August 21, 2017 at around 11:54am, the biggest event is about to happen when the Moon will start to block Chicago's view of the Sun! I have seen different eclipses when I was in the Philippines but this time I am so excited because we're going to witness a total solar eclipse! During those times, we used a small basin with water or old X-ray films. There are viewing areas to see the eclipse: at the Alder Planetarium, Daley Plaza, Southern Illinois University in Carbondale and in Perryville, MO. We got our free solar eclipse glasses at Daley Plaza in downtown Chicago and there are free outdoor activities like block party and educational talks with experts and Astronomers!

Glamour Moments team is so happy to witnessed the unveiling of new LG G5 last April 28, 2016 held at Shangri-la at the Fort Taguig. LG G5 sports is the brand's first-ever Modular type design, encase in a sleek metal aluminum body and a Slide-out Batter which can easily swap a depleted battery with a fully charged one. I am very fond of the LG's new TVC here in the United States. I don't even recognize Jason Statham at first glance because He portrays so different characters in the TVC and I'm not sure if He is the real one :P LOL During the launch, LG also introduces its "friends" namely LG Cam Plus, LG Hi-FI Plus with B&O Play, LG 360 VR, LG 360 Cam, LG Rolling Bot, LG Tone PlatinumTM, H3 by B&O Play, and the hub application called LG Friends Manager. LG G5 is available in the Philippines in gray, titan, gold and pink with a retail price of PHP 34,990.00. Check out the official page of LG and follow @LGPhilippines on Twitter and Instagram. You can al...

It's been a long time since I posted about SEO tools and gave a detailed review. Somehow, it motivated me to write today because this website is giving away a 13-inch Apple MacBook Air this Thanksgiving . Okay, am not after the prize (that's true!) but I wanted to give you a step by step analysis on how we use Majestic. I've been working with this industry for almost 8 years (whew!), I witnessed the importance of using SEO tools in our daily lives, we called them "lifesavers" or "early warning detectors."

I saw this signage 'Level 257' outside when traveling from Rosemont to Schaumburg. I don't even know that this place exists until I read from its official blog, http://level257chicago.tumblr.com / that the place is already opened. We love playing Pac-Man since we're young and I even remembered that there was a burger place in Caloocan named after this game character (LOL). Also Namco games were there. I saw Mappy and Galaga - my two most fave games! Level 257 is located at Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, Illinois. My mistake yesterday was we entered Sears which is adjacent to Young Mens section exit to the mall wherein we can exit near Stir Krazy (Sowee, it's Google Maps fault!). With the theme, "To play is human" Then the entrance door welcomed us with this quote saying: "Life is like a level of Pac-Man to move forward you must keep playing" Here are some of the snapshots I took from my phone. We will back next time to play, eat and have fun.....

Roger Decierdo's Toycon 2015 coverage continues..... And speaking of cosplays, the older crowd gamely joined as the cosplay event got underway. While there were a lot of the usual characters from currently popular franchises, there were also a lot of unique ones like the North Korean soldier from controversial 2014 comedy film The Interview. There was also a nice throwback to some beloved characters from our childhood like Princess Sarah (done by a guy) from that popular 90’s classic. Figure 11 Si Princess Sarah. Patatas na lang kulang. Figure 12 The North Korean soldier While the costumes were definitely greatly made, it was the cosplayers’ portrayals of their characters that really brought the house down laughing. One of the best was the guy who played Vegeta (from Dragon Ball Z), who came prepared with flashy special effects (actually just a guy waving pieces of cloth and moving around pieces of paper). Figure 13 Vegeta firing his Garlic Gun. Impressive special effects! Some ...

Toycon  2015 Coverage by Roger Decierdo Turning 30 is often said to be another step deeper into the adult world, a time where one has to seriously think about buying a house, a car, or deciding on a long-term business venture. And that also means getting further away from toys and other childish things. But that is not the case with some people, including myself. While we are now looking at possible property investments or preparing ourselves to embark on yet another business, we are definitely not giving up our action figures, dolls, and other toys. And we are definitely always looking forward the annual Toycon. Now on its 14th year, the Philippine Toys, Gaming, and Collectibles Convention has regularly attracted not only young people, but also those who have already gone past that category, yet still wanting to have some kiddie fun. And this year’s Toycon is no different, as it is packed with a lot of things to have fun with. As always, superheroes were there to greet the adult popu...

Remember back when we were kids and dreamed of flying into the stars wearing our capes made out of towels? Or when we go feed our toy soldiers to our “pet” toy dinosaurs? Now, it’s time to relive those fun memories again, as the Philippine Toys, Hobbies, and Collectibles Convention is set to bring you back to those innocent flights of fantasy on June 19-21. This time around, Toycon will be bringing a motley crew of caped and colourful superheroes with the World of DC Comics exhibit by Pacific Licensing . Not will you get to see some of the best action figures of Superman, Batman, and the other members of the Justice League, but you can get the chance to grab some great-looking DC hoodies from Authority Hoodies. On the other hand, if you are more into embarking on adventures to galaxies far, far away, Toycon also got you covered, as Walt Disney rolls out tons of new figures and merchandise in celebration of the original film trilogy and in anticipation of the upcoming Star Wars Rebels...
