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.

First update is about my previous post entitled Beware of Copycat Bloggers. As I mentioned in my previous post, I emailed the person involved and was waiting for his reply. I wasn’t able to check my email since Friday afternoon. So come Saturday evening (right now), I opened my inbox and read his reply. He apologized for what happened and I emailed him back, telling him that his apology is gladly & warmly accepted. I’m not the type of person who likes to hold grudges or make enemies.

He has also deleted the posts that I mentioned. For me, deleting the posts wasn’t what I really wanted to happen. He could have kept the posts as long as he edited some lines and quoted me or included a trackback. But this was his way of dealing with it and I respect it. I have now put all of this behind me and I even extended my friendship towards him. I told him that I would even include him in my blogroll if he wanted to. I have to wait again for his reply.


Second update
is about my Internet connection. Right now, I am using dial-up. (1 month free from NetZero). Dial-up comes in handy in situations like these. The reason why I’m using dial-up is because we have moved to a new apartment and had to have our phone line and DSL changed to a new address. (both services are offered by the same company). The phone line is already working but the Internet won’t be activated til after 10 days of notifying them. So that means my DSL won’t be available til next week (fingers crossed).

Also, if you have me in your blogroll please update your links to jaypeeonline.net coz I no longer use the .com & .tk domains and also the subdomain in my previous webhost. Thanks and have a nice day!
