SouthEast Asia’s first WordCamp

Published by under Events

Finally I was able to attend the first WordCamp in the College of St. Benilde, De La Salle University in Taft Avenue. It was the first WordCamp in SouthEast Asia and it’s indeed a successful one.

I learned a lot from WordCamp on how to maximize the use of WordPress not only as a blogging software but as an all-rounder online management software, and also, was able to see in person, Matt Mullenweg, the guy who invented WordPress who owns the company, Automattic. He was able to show us a glimpse of the next version of WordPress (2.7), which will be released on November 2008.

Congratulations to the organizers and many thanks to the sponsors!

iBlog4

Published by under Events

I had attended the iBlog4 summit which was held last 26 April 2008. It was my first time to attend such event wherein my wife who owned several blog sites, was the one who signed up for me.

Different topics were discussed from several speakers which are very informative and useful for new and old bloggers. Such topics were the following:

  • Blogging 101
  • Problogging
  • PhotoBlog
  • Online Comics
  • Podcasting
  • Blogging in the Elections
  • Legal issues
  • Filipina SEO and
  • Blogging on the countryside (Mindanao)

There were bloggers’ presentation in-between breaks from different topics. Lunch and snacks were provided free-of-charge. We even have free iBlog4 t-shirts before the event ended.

Many thanks to the organizers and the sponsors of the iBlog4 event!
