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.

WordPress Footed Bistro Mug First was the WordPress T-Shirt. After that came the WordPress Hoodie. This time around, the latest product from the WordPress Shop is the WordPress Footed Bistro Mug which you can get for $10 (not-inclusive of shipping or tax).

I tried looking for the exact measurements or dimensions of the mug, but I couldn’t find it anywhere in the WordPress Shop or even in the manufacturer’s website. Anyways, I love the WordPress mug! Especially because it comes in my favorite color, blue! $10 is a reasonable price but when I tried placing an order, they charged me $13.50 for shipping which IMO is quite expensive considering that it could take up to 14 days. I don’t know who handles their shipping but based on my experience from buying stuff online, with that price, shipping should take at least a week. Btw, when I checked it seems that the WordPress mug is only available in the Americas - US, Canada and South America because when I tried accessing the page from the World store, there was no mug listed there.

Here’s a short product description:

A ceramic bistro mug in cobalt blue emblazed with the WordPress logo. Features a sturdy footed base to help prevent those accidental spills.

For those of you who are not located in the Americas, would you get a WordPress mug if it was available for you? If you can choose, what color would you want your WordPress mug to be in?

    Looks nice and elegant. Hope they release a WP Coaster too, that I’ll definitely try to buy.

    @jhay - Yeah, a WordPress coaster would be cool too. I’m also hoping they’d produce a WordPress mousepad which I’m sure many users would love to have. :D

    @sasha - I know! If shipping was a bit cheaper, I’m sure more people would buy it. :)

    @Dre - I see. If that’s the case then you can get one and add it to your mug collection. Hehe :D

    Nice. I hope they also sell a coffee presser that goes along with the mug. Right, a coaster is not a bad idea, a little extra I suppose.

    Anything in white?

    @K - Coaster, probably. Coffee presser, I doubt it. Right now, the mugs are only available in cobalt blue but having it in white is also a good idea. So would you buy one if it was in white? :D
