RSS Feeds: Blog Review: Seay’s Kopitiam (eCafé), eConnection
The first thing I had to do when I arrived at Seay's Kopitiam (eCafé), eConnection was read Jamy's "about" page. I just had to know what "kopitiam" meant. I had an inkling that it had something to do with coffee (it's the Malaysian word for coffee shop) because "kape" means coffee in Tagalog (Filipino).
I have to say that the theme looks quite plain. If not for the header image, colorful sidebar widgets, and the images Jamy puts in the articles, I'd say it was dull. Don't get me wrong. I think it's a great theme, but it could be spruced up a bit. I looked for a contact page but couldn't find one, so I clicked on "sitemap" in the footer and was told I wasn't going to collect the $200. Bummer!
I know Jamy's first language isn't English, and I'll give her credit for writing in it as well as she does. I'm a little confused though, by a term in her latest article, "Dummies Guides on Content (4)". I've heard the familiar "reinvent the wheel", but never "reinvent the key". Maybe someone could enlighten me.
After reading her "about" page, I was quite impressed with Jamy's attitude and enthusiasm. I hope some of that rubs off on others.

Thank you, this is my second life :).
Thank you so very much for your encouragement , and critic.
Now, I might consider email my post to my father in law before I publish my post. He used to proof read my college essay when I was doing my pre-req.
Do you enjoy living in Philippine ?
As much as an avid traveler, I had not been there.
Regards,

The "dull" was referring to the theme, not the content. The content is fine.
Perhaps it's the black headings of each section that make it look dull. You can spruce that up by changing the colors. Experiment and see what you can come up with. Just avoid the "black and white" look unless you want it to resemble a newspaper in appearance.
Yes, I enjoy living in the Philippines. It's not really much different than what the U.S. was like 20 to 30 years ago.
Thank you for taking your time to explain.
As much as html and php handicap , I see what I can do :):).
Thank you.
Jamy
