WordCamp Philippines

WordCamp Philippines

If you’re a Pinoy blogger or a WordPress user/fan then most likely you’ve heard or read of this already. But in case you haven’t, I have good news for you. There will be a WordCamp held in the Philippines this coming September 6, 2008. If you don’t know what I’m talking about here’s a little info.

What is WordCamp?

WordCamp is a conference type of event that focuses squarely on everything WordPress. Everyone from casual end users all the way up to core developers show up to these events. These events are usually highlighted by speeches or keynotes by various people. WordCamp is a spin off from the popular BarCamp which was a spin off of FooCamp. - Weblog Tools Collection

WordCamp Philippines will be the first ever WordCamp organized and held in Asia. WordCamp Philippines is being organized by a group of Filipino bloggers based in Mindanao who were also responsible for organizing the successful 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit held last year.

What are the objectives of WordCamp Philippines?

…to encourage more developers to use and deploy WordPress, not only as a blogging engine but also as a full-featured content management system for Web sites. Another is to increase the number of WordPress users and developers in the country. By developers, we mean programmers of WordPress plugins and designers of themes & templates.

I’m leaving in a few hours to go and watch the Clippers - Heat game at the Staples Center. This is one of the things that I wasn’t able to do when I came here in 2004. I came in July so the season was already over. This time, it’s for real! The game starts at 7 pm but we’re leaving early to give allowance for the traffic.

Btw, did I mention that I have courtside seats? Hehe. I’m sorry, I don’t mean to brag but I’m sooo excited about this. I got the tix from my ninang (godmother). I saw her last Sunday and asked if I could also get tickets for a game against the Cavs so I could get to see Lebron James play in person. But today, I get to see Dwyane Wade. I might also get to see some Hollywood celebs who come to watch NBA games at the Staples Center. I’ll try to take photos and post them as soon as I get back.

Right now, I’m thinking if I should wear my red Clipper Nation shirt or not. Hehe

    @david - sorry man, the Heat lost last night. although Wade scored 33 points, he missed some crucial shots down the stretch and his teammates didn’t back him up.

    @dre - yeah, it was so cool! we were seating almost exactly behind the Miami Heat bench. thanks for sharing info on the plugin.
