A Surprise Visitor

    I got a very pleasant surprise as I was about to update my blog.  Janette Toral dropped by and left her comment in my "A View from the Top" post.  I mean she's *THE* Janette Toral -- One of the great minds I look up to and one of the great movers and shakers in the IT industry. 

    And she called me a "reflective thinker"

    Wow!  I'm humbled.

    For those of you who are not familiar with her, Janette Toral is dubbed as the "Mother of the E-Commerce Law" due to her untiring support and advocacy for E-Commerce in the Philippines, ultimately leading to the passage of RA8792 - The E-Commerce Act of the Philippines.  She also owns and maintains the digitalfilipino.com website, and is the author and publisher of two E-Commerce books, as well as a full complement of other major accompishments.

    Janette also maintains blogs in Friendster and in Blogspot.

    I first met her during one of PICS' meetings at the Aurora Milesone Building many years back when I was still with PhilWeb.  I don't know if she still recalls me...  I was an inactive member back then :(

    I made a booboo with my post... I should have posted it in my Blogspot where i post all my "reflective" stuff.  I occasionally mis-post and get things jumbled up, so I post here when I should have posted there and I post there when I should have posted here.  Tao lang po. 

    The mis-posting turned out to be a blessing, though, and so I was a special mention in Janette's blog, "Reaching Mount Everest"  :-)

    Thanks, Janette, for dropping by!
