On GMA 7’s Mel & Joey this Sunday

Note: If you are a first time visitor of this blog and want to know more about the Mel & Joey Episode on Blogging, please read this: Welcome Notes to Visitors from Mel & Joey Talk Show.

We wrapped up the longest interview I ever had last night, just before 10PM. The interview, which lasted about 2 hours, was for a feature on Mel & Joey about blogging as a career or an alternative source of income. I’m sure the final results will not be any longer than a couple of minutes when it’s aired so I’m curious which takes made it to the final cut.

Mel & Joey

The last time I had cameramen visiting my place for an interview was for ABS CBN’s coverage of the new Apple Macbook launch (and why it’s so blogging-friendly).

This one is a little more thorough as they also asked me to tour them around the house, show them stuff (esp. the gadgets) and take an hour or so of footage. So, if you’d happen to see that segment, I’ll tell you offhand that’s not what my pad usually looks like — it’s always messy. They also want me to spill the beans, esp. on the revenue part, so I just point them to the recent poll we just had the other week.

Btw, If my voice sound a bit weird, that’s because I’m still a bit ill with a clogged nose.

Update: Looks like J. Angelo is also in it.

    Sir Joey and Madam Mel,

    i’d like to inform you that Mr. Michael V. is the third Filipino to be featured in the front cover of the Reader’s Digest. The second one is Ms. Ligaya Cabal in the March 2001 Reader’s Digest issue. i am a Reader’s Digest reader and i got a copy of that issue which featured Ms. Cabal.

    More power to your show and God bless!

    Good day!!! I took a chance to email your show because of your episode aired last November 11 with regards to the “Electric Therapy” that you featured. Our family has a history of high blood and asthma, and as I watched your show, I was very impressed with the testimony of the patient who tried and is still using the said device. May I please inquire as to where I might buy and how much it would cost me if it were to shipped here in Baguio City? Does it have a warranty?

    Thank you very much and I am hoping for a quick reply to my queries.
    I am from Baguio City, and i watch most of the shows of GMA7 especially topics which feature health related issues.

    Sincerely,

    Bless Alimorong
    Baguio City

    hey yuga,just wanted to nkow kung papano ba magstart ng career na yan?at san ba pwedeng mag-sign up?email mo nman me oh..please:)thanks!

  18. Avatar for Abe Olandres Abe Olandres says:

    Yup, I believe that part where I also said people start out from zero was omitted altogether and that not all bloggers can earn such. The $300 and up are for established probloggers based on survey and interviews.

  19. Avatar for vbignacio vbignacio says:

    well ive seen the last part of feature, and i think the interviewed blogger should have mentioned a monthly income starting from $1 upwards. $300 or more per month for bloggers with a basic knowledge of SEO maybe. but for newbies, i doubt they could reach $5 a month with their blogs. im sure many Filipinos will start blogging, but for how long before they get disappointed and quit?

    i really want to know about blogging, i really want to try if i have the edge on it.. hehe.

  21. Avatar for Rex Rex says:

    I just saw the show. Just some basic info for those who have no idea about blogging. Nothing new. I guess they edited out the details. 2 hours? Whew..

    It’s nice to know though how much some of us bloggers are earning.. Hmmm, our peso might spike further if millions of Filipinos get on the Adsense program!

  25. Avatar for Abe Olandres Abe Olandres says:

    Yup, their researcher texted me and told me it has been moved to August.

    Sorry for the wait, guys.

  26. Avatar for Manuel Viloria Manuel Viloria says:

    They ran out of time. The blogging episode will probably be aired in August 2007 na.

  27. Avatar for Abe Olandres Abe Olandres says:

    I didn’t wait for the show. Thanks for the feedback, I will ask them what happened.

  28. Avatar for mr nice ash mr nice ash says:

    It’s another significant contribution to the cause of pinoy blogging.

    Will definitely watch the show. Even if Joey can be somewhat obnoxious.
