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.

Pacman vs Morales 3 - The Grand Finale

A few more days to go. I can’t wait! I’m too excited to see this match. I still don’t know where I’m gonna watch it coz here in the US, you either watch it live in Vegas or watch it thru PPV. It kinda sucks coz in the Philippines, I could watch it for free even though it’s a bit delayed.

Dubbed as the “Grand Finale”, Pacquiao vs. Morales 3 will be the deciding match for this great rivalry. This rivalry could easily be one of the best rivalries in boxing history and is likened to the Barrera-Morales and Gatti-Ward rivalries. This match is also the most awaited fight of the year for boxing fans around the world. This match could easily be the “Fight of the Year” because of the drama and history involved and also because of the talent of this two great fighters.

Eric Morales and Manny Pacquiao
Erik “El Terible” Morales & Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao

With both fighters having a win over each other, Pacquiao and Morales are eager and determined to prove to the world who really is the best boxer. Morales would be coming to the ring at 132 lbs instead of the initially agreed weight of 130 which is considered as an advantage for him. Pacquiao, on the other hand would be relying on stamina and punching power to make this match go his way.

Manny Pacman Pacquiao

“I am the best super featherweight in the world and I cannot wait to prove it to Erik Morales…again. Morales will fee the strength of the people of The Philippines behind every punch I land on him. This may be the ‘Grand Finale’ on our trilogy, but it is just the beginning for Manny Pacquiao.”

Manny Pacquaio

How I wish I could watch this live at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. I’m sure the tickets are gonna be pretty expensive and hard to get but if I had the money, I would definitely get myself tickets. But if in case I don’t get to watch the live or replay match, all I want is for Manny Pacquiao to win and make us Filipinos proud.

Go Pacman!

    I am equally as excited as you are Jaypee. It’s nice to have it on free TV but the ads can really go in the way. PPV is also available here in our town but it is really steep. Just the same, I bet this would really be a match to watch…

    @major tom - aren’t we all excited? hehe. yup, i remember watching boxing aired for free and the advertisements taking up like 30-45 minutes. this match is available in PPV for like $39.

    @trench - good for you! i still have to find a place where i could watch it. so who are you rooting for this time?

    @jong - yup, i think all Filipinos have set their calendar and postponed or canceled other plans on this date. Manny’s shorts is like the Million Dollar Homepage. hehe

    @anshul - i’ll send you an email on how to setup your Sideblog. it’s quite easy so i’m sure you’ll be able to have it up in no time.

    @hoop - amen to that!

    i heard, the night before morales arrived in las vegas, weighed at 136 lbs… and that for an extra pound, it would cost him 500 grand… such a big cost for an excess baggage… whether this extra pound could give advantage for him or not, pacquiao is definitely on his best shape to match…

    @rose - ok yon photoblog mo. ako din, gusto ko gumawa ng photoblog pero hindi pa ngayon. sana nga manalo si pacquiao.

    @gbert - yup, he does have to pay for every extra pound he gains. also, from pre-fight show that i watched in HBO, Freddie Roach said that if Morales exceeds the specified weight, they would get the money and back out of the fight. i hope it doesn’t happen.

    @ymir - yup, may the best fighter win! :D

    Pacquiao of course. I have a little flipside in my blood so got to root for the filipino fighter.

    Some people I know actually say that Pacman will loose this match. They say that Morales has known and experienced almost all of Pacman’s moves, strengths and weaknesses and will definitely come to the fight well prepared.

    I tend to agree with them, isn’t this like the third time the two of them will slug it out in the ring? It’s not even a title match.

    Still, the best of luck to Manny.

    @trench - alrighty then! :D

    @jhay - i agree that Morales is a more experienced fighter and that he has seen Pacquiao’s strengths and weaknesses. however, i believe that Morales is not the same fighter he was several years ago and Pacquiao has improved a lot the past few years. i’m sure that Freddie Roach will come up with a new strategy for this match.

    @koolitz - sure na sure ba? hehe

    The crime rate here in the Philippines will again fall to zero. I swear.

    @rose - hehe. sa mga endorsements at advertisements palang eh mayaman na sya. sana nga manalo sya ulit.

    @dre - i hope so too!

    @clawy - i’m sure it’s gonna be worth paying for. here, people pay more to watch his fight. plus, you have the 2 movie tickets.

    @koolitz - ganun ba? wag naman sana malasin is Manny, sana si Erik ang malasin. LOL

    @ade - i believe that’s gonna happen coz even the criminals stay home to watch the fight. i hope Pacquiao has a fight everyday so there will be no more crime in the Philippines.
