Yes, as in everyday, one fan will be chosen to win 2 tickets! And the mechanics is super duper easy! Just like Max’s on Facebook, click on the Bruno Mars Promo and follow the instruction, which is basically filling up the registration form!

Teka muna, bakit nagbibigay ang Max’s ng free tickets? because Max’s is the official restaurant of Bruno Mars’ Moonshine Jungle concert.

Get Your Own Dot Com Even When You’re Using Blogger

I love WordPress because with WP, I have more control with my blog.. but when I asked around what blogging platform they prefer, most answered that they prefer blogger. Why? WordPress is complicated and Blogger is more user friendly. I cannot agree more.. I mean, yeah, WP requires a lot of tweaking to set up, unlike with Blogger, you just need a gmail account and you’re all set.

When I started blogging, I thought I can only have my own domain using WordPress as blogging platform.. well, you can use your domain even when you are using Blogger pala!

Here’s how to set up your domain with Blogger:

Buy the domain/ dot com you want at any domain registrar, I use GoDaddy, create your own account and buy the domain you want (if available). I just want to say that I never like other domain other than .com.. allergic ako sa dot net, dot org, dot info at kung ano- ano pa.. it’s cheaper but for me, it means not original (that’s juts me OK)

After buying the domain name you want (GoDaddy accepts credit card payment and paypal payment), launch the domain dashboard:

Click on DNS Zone File:

And then click EDIT

Add a record:

Write www, and then ghs.google.com

Now go to back to dashboard then click SETTINGS:

Manage the FORWARDING and do this step:

on FORWARD TO, type in http://wwww.YOURDOMAIN.com then click SAVE.

Now go back to your Blogger dashboard and go to SETTINGS:

Click ADD A CUSTOM DOMAIN>>> SWITCH TO ADVANCE SETTING >> ENTER YOUR DOMAIN (include WWW) and the click SAVE!

So what’s the advantage of having your own domain? ummm much like having your own name 🙂

And if you use your own domain while blogging at Blogger, transferring the blog to WordPress is easier, since the domain name will be the same, all the stats won’t change.. techy masyado?

here goes,

example, your blog is myblog.blogspot.com , all links, ranks are credited to this name.. when you change it to myblog.com, you lose all those credentials.. if you already have the myblog.com from the start and decide to change blogging platform, you won’t lose any credentials since you’ll still be using the same domain..

Next week, yan ang lesson natin ha.. How to Transfer your Blogger blog (with own domain) to WordPress without losing your juice links and ranks. Stay Tuned!

Understanding the Baby’s Delicate Skin

We all know the reason why baby’s skin is sensitive and delicate and we have learned a few tried and tested baby’s skin care tips from mommy bloggers.. but let’s be more scientific this time..I admit, part me is still hungry for knowledge.. me and my curious cat!

A few readings here and there (salamat Mr G!), I have learned that the baby’s skin is almost the same with adult’s skin in terms of structure: epidermis, dermis and hypo-dermis. What makes the baby’s skin different from that of the adult is the stratum corneum, the outer most layer of epidermis. This layer is mostly dead cells, it protects the skin from infection and dehydration. The stratum corneum of the baby’s skin is thinner, thus the protection is less.

We can say that the most sensitive part of the baby’s skin is the diaper area. Why? because it is exposed to poop and pee everyday, making it the most prone to rashes and infections.

They say prevention is always better than treatment and I know all of you will agree.. so to prevent infections and rashes, here’s a tip from P&G Grooming and Science:

Methods of prevention include keeping the skin dry with frequent diaper changes, or the use of highly absorbent diapers that pull moisture away from the skin so that it is not softened by being damp for long periods.

When it comes to highly absorbent diaper, there’s only one diaper brand that comes in mind, Pampers! (Trust me, this diaper is the driest diaper you can encounter.. don’t tell anyone ha, but I tried it myself). And it’s just about dryness since Pampers has 5- Star Skin Protection for Baby’s Sensitive Skin:

12 Hours Dryness. Pampers Active keeps baby’s skin touchably dry for up t 12 hours.
Baby Lotion. Pampers Active diaper is infused with aloe lotion to help prevent diaper rash.
Cottony Softness. Keep baby’s skin free from imitation with cotton-like softness.
Breathable Cover. Air circulates so baby’s skin can breathe easily and stay wonderfully fresh.
Comfortable Fit. A flexible, side stretch design keeps it snug and comfy whether baby is at rest or play.

Pampers Active is available in sizes Newborn to XL:
