Chikka.com’s new look

It was about ten years ago when Chikka was first launched. Chikka, a web-based application, lets users send SMS from their desktop to mobile phones. Chikka’s breakthrough had been in marrying IM technology seamlessly with SMS, and then building a back-end that would withstand its use by the world’s ‘text capital’ – The Philippines.

A decade later, Chikka has served over 68 million people who had registered on-line and via mobile to enjoy the way Chikka had united on-line Filipinos with the sea of SMS users. The company is also releasing the latest version of its Chikka Text Messenger.

This 2010, Chikka gives something to the new digital generation. Chikka will launch a new version that is packed with features not just for the web-savvy individual, but those who are constantly on the go as well.
The new version combines the cool convenience of sending an IM message when one is on-line with the personal warmth, immediacy even urgency of receiving a message as text, instantly read on ones phone.

Promoting even higher utility for the community, the new Chikka version features P1.00 replies during off-peak hours when a lot of Global Filipinos are driving message traffic to friends and loved ones mobiles in the Philippines. Unlimited text packages akin to popular UNLI packages being offered by Philippine telcos are also now available all day.

It is also interoperable with Google Talk while Chikka is working on partnering with other instant messaging applications to make it easier for users to keep in touch. They are also developing applications that will be supported by the i Phone, Blackberry and other android phones.

According to CIO Dennis Mendiola, “The idea is for Chikka users to be able to access it on numerous communications platforms. Simply put, as long as you have a computer or mobile phone, you can use Chikka.”

The new version will be out in August 25, 2010.

The heat is on as the 12 finalists for SM Hypermarket’s Super Chef challenge go head to head in the four final rapid-fire final rounds that will determine who will be hailed as the SM Hypermarket Super Chef.

Initially, 60 participants, composed of housewives, culinary students and instructors, call center agents, kitchen crew members, restaurant owners, bankers, and retirees had faced off in live cooking challenges. The 12 participants who beat out their competitors time and again are now under even more pressure as the pool of participants becomes ever smaller. To make the competition more intense, the challenges will be televised over the Asian Food Channel.

Instead of being cowed by the awesome challenge of cooking competitively while being watched by television audiences all throughout Asia, the SM Hypermarket finalists are confident in their culinary skills and can’t wait to prove themselves to be the best of the best.

From the Northern SM Hypermarket branches, we have Eddieson de Ocampo, Reynilo Peña, Aiza Mesina and Dante Cabalona.

From the Southern division of branches are Islagel Gellidon, Leah Alava, Angelo Cervantes, and Louie Dumangas. Completing the roster for the Super Chef battle are the four chefs from the Central District branches, namely Mark Anthony Mejino, Eric Dizon, Josephine Portulin, and Roselle Manzano.

For these twelve finalists and for the television audience watching with bated breath, the battle to become a star of Filipino cuisine is on!
