When in Manila is an online metro guide book focused on Manila and the Philippines. It was created by Vince Golangco on September 1, 2009. The site publishes news, reviews, and information on various topics, including food, culture, music, fashion, travel, and lifestyle. When in Manila creator Vince Golangco, after studying and working in the US, traveled the world and settled in the Philippines because he fell in love with the country. He originally launched When In Manila as a video blog, with a staff of four: a writer (Golangco), two videographers, and a webmaster. The group soon realized that they were spending the majority of their time handling video production, yet their videos were not getting as many views as their articles. They began focusing on the written content instead. "We were actually renting a big expensive camera for ₱10,000 per day, and trying to cram in as much shooting time as possible. Then one day I was at a restaurant I wanted to feature and didn't have my crew with me, so I just took a bad video with my camera, that video ended up getting more views than the professional videos we did," Golangco observed.
