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.

Was tagged by Jhay and Joni a couple weeks back with the same meme so I’ll give the credit to both of them.

The meme requires me to write down 3 things that makes me feel proud to be a Filipino.

1. Filipino ingenuity - Filipinos are known for their ability to improvise and re-invent things. Take for example the famous jeepney. The Americans brought their jeep and the Filipinos made it into a colorful, one-of-a-kind passenger jeep.

2. Fillipino adaptability - I think any country you go to, you’ll find Filipinos. We are known to easily adapt to other cultures and can easily learn and speak new languages.

3. Filipino hospitality - If not for the negative publicity that the Philippines get from terrorism, kidnapping and other stuff, I’m pretty sure that the Philippines would be a more popular tourist destination than it is right now. Tourists like it here in the Philippines because aside from our beautiful beaches and other tourist destinations, we Filipinos are very hospitable. We know how to treat our guests.

I’m not tagging anyone but if you feel like doing it, go ahead and be my guest. You can say that I indirectly tagged you. Hehe

    Hehe! I tagged you because you’ve been out of the country for a long time and you’ve been exposed to other nationalities so I was sure you’ve grown to appreciate our heritage more now and therefore has great things to say. :D

    @Joni - Thanks for tagging me with this one! No matter where I go or how long I’ll be out of the Philippines, I’d never forget who I am and where I come from. Always proud to be Pinoy! :D

    Btw, pass muna ako dun sa last meme mo ha? Wala kasi akong Photoshop ngayon so I can’t edit the photo and add the text. Sensya na.
