Coding for Kids and Teens - Junior and Master Coder Classes

While many from my generation would not understand what this is all about, the digital natives -- our children, can quickly grasp the concepts of coding. It is the language of the present and the future. If you've been following me on social media, you may have seen some snapshots of my son during his coding classes and from my blog feature on JACK - Junior Academy for Coding Knowledge, published last summer. He already finished three different courses and he's asking for more.

Join the #SugodManny Movement for Pacquiao-Mayweather Fight

I am not a boxing fan. My lolo was. Back in the 80s, I see him watching boxing matches on TV. I never really got interested in this sport coz I feel it's just too violent. But ever since Manny Pacquiao became popular, I learned to appreciate it just a bit, and admired the man. I know that every Filipino is rooting for him in each match, and I'm pretty sure my lolo would be the first to grab a front row seat if he were still here with us.

This is Manny's biggest fight and even if I'm not a big fan of boxing, my family and I admire Manny Pacquiao. The whole country is behind Manny!

If you follow me, @mymomfriday on Instagram, you might have seen my MomFridayVideogram showing our "knockout moves" which I posted last week. :) Here's a screen grab.

Our knockout moves on video, click to view.

I joined the movement initiated by Smart to unite everyone in supporting our pambansang kamao by posting photos or videos and tag #SugodManny.

Join me and rest of the country on social media to rally behind Manny Pacquiao on his upcoming fight this May 2 in Las Vegas. Use #SugodManny and post your own knockout move -- it can be funny, fierce, cute, it doesn't have to be a boxing move.

Click http://smart.com.ph/sugodmanny for more info.

I still don't know where we'll be watching the fight Usually, we watch his fights at home, but for sure there will be a lot of venues with pay-per-view offers. There's also mobile video streaming.

If you want a front row seat for the May 2 event but can't go to Las Vegas like us, then look no further -- SMART is offering LIVE and commercial‐free video streaming of the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight through the Viewstream app on your mobile device for PhP499 only!

PhP499 offer is for a limited time only for Smart, Sun, and Talk ‘N Text subscribers

Download E-Books and E-Magazines from Buqo App with SMART

I haven't been able to regularly buy magazines for the past few years, mainly because I now spend more time in front of the computer. Thus, I get to read informative and entertaining materials off the internet, and also from my tablet and mobile phone. Good news for people like me, Smart Communications recently tied-up with Summit Media to offer subscribers easier access to e-books and e-magazines with Buqo app and pay with Smart!

Enjoying Deezer Music Streaming with Smart

I've always been a music lover and I enjoy listening to the radio or CD since my schooldays. Okay...I think I dated myself by telling you that, hahahaha! I'll redeem myself by saying that I'm still very much up to date with chart-topping songs in different genres. It's the digital age and truth be told, I have not caught on to using video or music streaming yet. That all changed when I learned about Deezer. It's the premium music streaming service from France and they partnered with wireless services leader Smart, launched last July 9 with a big party, which I obviously missed.

http://smart.com.ph/Deezer

If not for Smart and Deezer, I wouldn't have discovered new tracks, and wouldn't known the titles of the latest songs that my kids and I are humming to! Good riddance, "Let It Go"!

“We are very happy to secure this partnership with Deezer,” said Kathy Carag, Smart Postpaid Marketing Head. “We have brought you SPINNR and now Deezer to beef up our music portfolio. We know that music is life for many Filipinos and now Smart is making it possible for Filipino music lovers to enjoy what they want to hear with the clarity and features they truly deserve.”

What's amazing about Deezer:

Contains more than 30 million songs in its library
Deezer App is available in over 180 countries worldwide
Man and machine recommendations - 50 music editors around the world + smart algorithms personalize the recommendations to enjoy and discover more music
Music discovery features like Flow, Hear This, Explore
Spotlight on local artists
Smart-caching on mobile - can play on Offline Mode

I am currently building my Playlist as I add more songs to my Favorite Tracks.

Deezer offers are initially available for Smart Postpaid subscribers through Unlisurf Premium Plans starting at just PhP1,175 a month, bundled with the latest smartphones and unlimited LTE surfing. As an exclusive perk to early subscribers, Smart will give Unlisurf Premium Plans a P175 bill rebate for six months.

Existing Postpaid subscribers can avail of Deezer Flexibundles with a free Deezer Premium+subscription:

Deezer Daily = Php25 (1-day Deezer access + 25 SMS and 10MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)
Deezer Weekly = Php125 (7-day Deezer access + 125 SMS and 50MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)
Deezer Monthly = P250 (30-day Deezer access + 250 SMS and 100MB of mobile data for Deezer streaming)

Offers for Smart Prepaid subscribers will be announced soon. For more information on Smart’s Deezer offers, visit smart.com.ph/Deezer. Try Deezer now!
