PLDT pushes broadband boundaries

PLDT myDSL subscribers rarely go offline nowadays unless they get out of loop on the coolest gigs in their new cyberspace haunt, the myView channel.

Launched recently at Jill’s Global City in Taguig, the myView channel on PLDT MyDSL’s Watchpad sizzled with shows about almost everything; from self-help tips on how to maximize DSL to fashion, music, gadgets, fitness, entertainment and more! 

Many of the MyDSL Watchpad’s channel ambassadors are GMA Artist Center talents such as Isabel Oli, Victor Aliwalas, Rhian Ramos, Gino dela Peña, Steff Prescott and Stephanie Henares.

Oli hosts a lifestyle and fashion show in which viewers virtually go with her on a window shopping trip to stores that sell quality items for a steal. The former model turned actress will also dispense tips on how to "rock out" an otherwise "standard" look. 

Aliwalas, on the other hand, will play the hands-on fitness guru who actually goes to fitness shops and centers to demonstrate the features and use of sport equipments, as well as how to do leg raises, bicep curls and crunches properly to achieve buff beauty. The myView’s fitness show host will also talk about nutrition, channeling the advice of experts. 

Ramos will write about anything and everything on her celebrity blog. De la Pena will tinker with the latest gadgets and gizmos in a show aimed to serve as bible to techies. Both on myView.
For the latest showbiz chika, there’s myFoursome, an on-cam chinwag session among the country’s most respected entertainment journalists who lay on the table any showbiz-related subject which they then dissect until the stories behind the stories are revealed.

The myFoursome show is hosted by Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist Dolly Anne Carvajal, Manila Standard Entertainment editor Isah Red, Philippine Star editor Ricky Lo and Manila Bulletin columnist Shirley Pizarro.

Meanwhile, music lovers are bound to sing hallelujahs over exclusive music videos on myView by such artists as Jay Durias and Amber. The videos are shot on interesting locations and are almost always canned from first take.

Drifting enthusiasts, rejoice! An omnibus show about drifting in which undisputed champ Alex Perez gives away some of his trade secrets is now ready for viewing on (where else?) myView.
And do you know that PLDT myDSL subscribers can access Facebook, Multiply and Friendster, while still having as constant companions, myView and 13 other TV channels such as CNN, National Geographic Channel, The Biography Channel, MTV, GMA-7 and Crime & Investigation Channel?

The PLDT Watchpad’s myView channel also offers another first: Nationwide video streaming. Two of these are the 2009 Drifting Championship and the forthcoming Pacman vs. Cotto fight on November 15.

Ditto with the most happening radio programs from Manila FM stations, including Wave89.1 FM’s "Old School R&B" featuring MC Dash, Saturdays, 3-5 p.m. and Jam 883’s "Jam Sessions," Sundays, 7-8 p.m.

Gimik with the friends has gone virtual, too, as myView brings – or shall we say, streams – the inside scoop on the country’s hottest clubs such as Club Circa, Dolce and even Cebu’s Vudu club. 

If you’re a couch potato and would rather be "alone but not lonely" on a gimik night, check out the live streaming of no less than the award-winning movies of Cannes Best Director Brillante Mendoza. "Kinatay"… "Siquijor"… "Kaleldo"…the list goes on.

Catch the Watchpad crew together with Direk Mendoza and directors Jim Libiran and Pepe Diokno, along with Cebu’s Ruel Antipuesto, as they tour top campuses in Manila and Cebu in November.

All these on PLDT’s MyWatchpad for free. On line, on-real time and on the house – if you’re a PLDT MyDSL subscriber.    Read more here http://www.malaya.com.ph/11102009/ent4.html
