The Virtual Tour offers a 360-degree view of some of the popular destinations inside the once walled city at the heart of Manila.

Here are some of the shots taken using the Google Street View Trekker (Feel free to navigate through each of the pic):

According to Google Philippines, Intramuros is just the first of many tourist destinations that they plan to include in their Street View database. In our opinion, this kind of initiative from Google and DoT will certainly increase the tourism growth in the country.

I used to see people boasting their Temple Run scores all around the social media. Fortunately (or unfortunately), something replaced it already – Flappy Bird. It’s free, it has bad graphics, it’s insanely hard, it’s pointless and most of all, it’s frustratingly addicting.

This is impossible.

The game simply involves tapping to flap the bird into flying. The goal is to get a high score without hitting the pipes and that’s it. As of writing, I only got 22 as my personal high score. Someone I knew gave me a tip to fly low rather than flying high.

You should try it out if you want to know what we mean. It’s free for both iOS and Android, in which you can download them here and here respectively. Feel free to tell us what you think!
