Send Money w/ Gcash Thru Friendster

Globe and TM subscribers can now send money to each other on Friendster using GCASH. Turn your mobile phone into a virtual wallet with GCASH and send money remittance, pay bills, and to pay for a variety of products and services. To get started, simply register your mobile number with Friendster.

What is GCASH? A related GCASH entry here.

Friendster says… GCASH is Globe Telecom’s mobile commerce service that turns your mobile phone into a virtual wallet. With GCASH, both Globe and TM subscribers can send money to other Globe and TM subscribers via text messages. GCASH can be used to send money remittance, to pay bills, and to pay for a variety of products and services.


How to use gcash on Friendster?

  • First, register your Globe mobile number on Friendster by texting REG
    to 2276.
  • Visit your home page. You’ll now see a “Send GCASH” link under “My Tools” (you must be logged into Friendster to see this).
  • Click on “Send GCASH” and you’ll see a list of friends that also have enabled GCASH on Friendster. Click on the friend you’d like to send GCASH to, enter the amount and click “Send”.
  • You can also send GCASH to any GCASH-enabled Globe or TM number. Click the Globe / TM number tab, enter the mobile number, enter the amount and click “Send”.
  • You’ll be asked to confirm the transaction with your 4-digit MPIN. Just follow the instructions you see on Friendster, and your friend will receive GCASH from you!
What's great with this G-Cash inside Friendster is that trade or online exchange could happen. Thereby boosting online commerce in the Philippines. There is a 2.50 peso charge for every trasfer or transaction processed by Friendster-Gcash.

What's not good about having a money transfer scheme inside Friendster, I am expecting the possibility of more "give-me-load, I'll do a private web-show" modus operandi in there.

BTW, I have gcash account, I have friendster account and I have a webcam. Just saying. =)

Cleansing the Bookmarks & Moving Forward

I finally had the time to clean my fucked up BOOKMARK/FAVORITES list.

Man, could be over a thousand bookmarked sites. Excluding the downloadable “top 100″ sites released by PC Mag yearly.

Before deleting some, of course, they have to be revisited and checked if the contents are still related to current times and to what I do. Some of my bookmarked sites are some of the online stores in the Philippines and some freelance sellers who made sites at free hosting sites are nowhere to be found. Gone with the wind. Other deleted sites are, web hosting business, programming tutorials, dead forums/community, link exchange sites, classifieds website, idle blogs, e-commerce solutions provider, payment gateway provider, etc.

Not to lift the desk, so to speak, but my blog (and other sites) has been online since 04. (In fact 02 and 03 , I've been trying to put one blog but no success. No continuity therefore DELETE BLOG I did, 3 times.)

Sure, I made no mark at all in 4 years but it doesn't matter, more important is, we're getting good income off online activity and that, we have plans for the future. We'll do more online stuff in a stealthy fashion and passion. (stealth, thus the name, hideyourmonkey). We got plans, stay tuned.

So, next time you too begin deleting bookmarked sites, skip HIDEYOURMONKEY bookmark (Ha! who would bookmark this blog) 'coz this blog is staying put. I am here for the long (cash) haul.
