PinoyTux Break

It’s been a very busy month for me. I have two projects at work involving two top 10 sites of our company and it was very hectic. But, I am so glad that the projects are now over, both successful.

It may seem that I will have more time to blog but unfortunately, I will be taking a three-week course of trainings in preparation for the Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) Certification Exam. I may post tips here from time to time to help aspiring Linux users but I cannot promise that it will be as it is written in the training manuals. Contents of training manuals are copyrighted and being a Linux user, we all know better what copyrighted means

Anyway, wish me luck in my training and exams. I need all the luck I can get

This may mean nothing to you but my blog earned me $200 for the month of August

PinoyTux Reaches 20,000 Visits!

When I started this blog, I have never imagined that I would reach a wide variety of readers from all across the world. And now, PinoyTux celebrates the day that it reaches 20,000 visits since SiteMeter was installed (April 2008).

Not only I have made PinoyTux as my online journal and blog containing my Linux tips, tricks and notes but I also made quite a few bucks from blogging reviews, advertising links and online advertisements specifically from Google Adsense. And from the additional income that I made from my online blog, I have bought a few items. But what I really want to buy is a turbocharger for my car.

A turbocharger is definitely a must-add for my brand new ride and luckily found a site called turbochargerpros.com that sells one that fits my car, among other brands for different car makes and models like audi turbocharger. Having a turbocharger in your car, if installed correctly, breathes a new life to your ride by adding more horsepower and torque and adding fuel efficiency as well. So I know that with rising gas prices, a good turbocharger is a big help

Anyway, I am glad that letting more people know about Linux and technology using my blog and I hope that I can continue providing more Linux tutorials and tips to my readers.
