Money Online

After Charice Pempengco, two more Filipinas are out for international recognition via the same route - YouTube.

I saw them first at the sidebar of Reyna Elena's blog and I thought they are good. Today I saw a post on The Filipino Web featuring the invitation of Ellen DeGenares to feature them on her show. Adding that they have a beautiful bathroom on the show.

That's because the two singers, Erin and Roxanne (Rin on the Rox) uses the bathroom as the stage where they record their videos.

Here's Ellen's invitation on her show

Indeed, the YouTube is fast becoming a great channel for Filipino artists to get discovered as they get viewed by most people all around the world... especially from the "audiences that matter."

And as you can see, aside from great singing talents, Rin and Rox are also blessed with head-turning beauty!(And I don't think I'm just being biased cause I'm stating a fact)

To see more of Rin on the Rox (while we can still reach them), you can catch them in their YouTube channel.

If you have been here before, you will notice that I have a new theme layout on this blog. This is all part making Money OnLine a more active blog than it was last year.

Aside from money and finance news and views, there would be also important announcements - entrepreneurship, career and of course money online.

Of course, there would still be contests that I would join, contests that I might sponsor, and other news about EntreCard and other blogging communities.

As it is, the site is still bare as old widgets were all deleted when I changed the template. Once finished in placing all the widgets, there would be ads spaces for widgets that are for rent too. You might want to check them if you are looking to advertise your blogs.

That will be all for now.

This is the new Money OnLine.

Just when everyone thinks that the Pacquiao - Hatton match is over, the latest news again reports the contrary - Manny Pacquiao has signed the contract and the Pacquiao-Hatton match is finally on!

This is a great news for all boxing fans all over the world, especially us Filipinos who are always eager to watch Pacman in action.

But the news that we have in the previous days have somewhat painted a different picture for the boxing match as well as people's perception of the Pambansang Kamao.

It's all about the money. That is how it appears to be, because the main reason for the negotiation to be stalled is the talk about money - the split on the match purse.

Fans would like a boxing match and they really couldn't care less whether how the proceeds of the fight is going to be split between the two fighters.

Boxing is about pride... and not about greed.

With the sport being highly commercialized, is there still a sense of pride in winning the match?

By the way, is there a title at stake in this match?

Or is this just for show too?
