KUYA GERMS SAYS “OK!” TO MOOPLACE.COM

The Master Showman, German Moreno went on a promotional tour in New Zealand for GMA 7. He was accompanied by John Nite, his co-host in his show, Walang Tulugan with the Master Showman, a late night variety show aired every Saturday evenings by GMA Network. On their 2-day visit to Auckland City, Kuya Germs joined the celebration of the feast of the Sto. Nino at a Sinulog festival held by Filipinos in the city. There, he met the couple Bob and Edith Carpenter. Edith is a Filipina from Pampanga who runs a successful travel agency, Planet Earth Travel in New Zealand. Bob is a retired businessman based in Auckland, New Zealand. The couple is very active in Filipino community events across New Zealand.

During lunch at the Auckland’s Sky Tower and Casino, Kuya Germs learned of MooPlace.com,  a 100% pure Filipino social networking site, where, in the words of its founder-director, Bob Carpenter, is a place where Filipinos can spend their time in the web to have fun, meet and celebrate with fellow kababayans. Bob says the website, which he developed with the help of Filipino IT professionals based in New Zealand, provides the tools to allow members to build an online global community. Members can upload photos of their families, and their communities and places they have been to. It also has links to YouTube where they can upload songs, comedy sketches and videos of events. Other current features at Mooplace include a Directory where members can share their business details, an Events section, and a Photo section where members can upload up to 20 photos, five videos and five songs at a time. Every month, Mooplace will hold a photo competition. Members can post entries and vote for other members' photos. It is a work in progress as new features will be added regularly, from suggestions of members across the world. The site will undergo a huge upgrade early February that will give Mooplace a great jump in speed looks and things for its members to do. Membership to Mooplace is free.

Impressed by the site’s features, the icon of Philippine television host, actor and comedian, posed for a photo with Bob Carpenter with the MooPlace poster on the background to affirm his endorsement. MooJo--MooJo (talk) 12:23, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
