How time flies! When Blog Watch launched in 2009, it was our vision to simply provide another avenue to promote voter education. Four years have passed and we went beyond voter education to include being a citizens' watchdog for transparency and good governance.
Today, social media allows us to talk to one another with just one click of the mouse. If you are reading this article, then you are probably interested in being part of the solution and to make a difference in the 2013 elections.

How can you make a difference?

technology evangelist

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_evangelist
A technical or technology evangelist is a person who attempts to build a critical mass of support for a given technology, in order to establish it as a technical standard in a market that is subject to network effects.^[1] Professional technology evangelists are often employed by firms who seek to establish their proprietary technologies as de facto standards, or to participate in setting non-proprietary open standards. Non-professional technology evangelists may act out of altruism or self-interest (e.g., to gain the benefits of early adoption or the network effect).

Transparency challenge to the 2013 candidates

This article credited from the Philippine Online Chronicles

One of Blog Watch goals is to educate the electorate that there are pertinent Campaign Finance Laws. Voters need to be vigilant and be aware of these laws. We hold these public officers accountable to the people. We needed to make sure that our candidates are transparent as to the sources of their campaign money and the true extent of their elections spending as this would impact directly on the candidates’ governance upon assumption to office. Campaign spending was not given enough importance in the past elections unlike voting and counting procedures. At the end of the elections, the usual practice is to celebrate the victory, look at disputes, but forget about the finances.
Disclose pre-campaigning expenses
While it is clear that there are reportorial requirements for campaign spending, there are no laws required for pre-campaign spending. Comelec spokesperson James Jimenez even admits that the law may not prohibit pre-mature campaigning, but it is unfair.
The Supreme Court “ ruled that a commercial endorsement by politicians is not necessarily a form of premature campaigning, nor when they push personal advocacies in mass media. “
