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.

Kool IM 2.0

Good news to Kool IM users out there. Version 2.0 has just been launched!

Compared to it’s previous version, this new version includes an embedded IM client right on the page. This is to address the problems that users having pop-up blockers have with the original version. In it’s six months of existence, Kool IM already has an average of 40,000 users a day.

The Kool IM staff also plans to add more IM networks and are in the process of negotiating with US carriers about the possibilities of a mobile version of Kool IM.

Kool IM is definitely working hard to keep up and compete with other services like Meebo and eBuddy. Although I rarely use this type of services, I still prefer Meebo over Kool IM and eBuddy because it’s simple and easy to use.

Check out the new Kool IM

Note: When using services like Meebo, Kool IM & eBuddy, make sure you sign off. Closing the window doesn’t sign you out and leaves your account online.

    @verns - Hi! It’s all good. Thanks for dropping by :D

    @Jam - Meebo, Kool IM & eBuddy is handy when the pc doesn’t have an IM client installed and or you don’t have access to install them like in the school’s computer lab or in the office. :)
