WordCamp RP2009 in the works

WordCamp Philippines LogoI’m happy to announce that the gang of Mindanao Bloggers and their supporters will soon be commencing plans and arrangements for WordCamp Philippines 2009! I will be calling the first organizational meeting within the following week.

It has yet to be officially finalized, but I’m excited to let everyone know that we’re working with the Asian Institute of Management to have this prestigious school be the host and venue for WordCamp this year. Thanks to Jayvee Fernandez and Regnard Raquedan for the invaluable support!

Bueno, let’s get the ball rolling!

We are now calling for volunteers for the various committees (logistics, tech, food & refreshments, etc). If you would like to be a speaker at WordCamp, let me know! And if you have suggestions on topics to be presented / discussed at WordCamp, do leave a comment right here.

Further announcements shall be posted on WordCamp.ph, the official site, whose domain name is sponsored by dotPH. More generous sponsors — we welcome you! :goodluck:

While the site is still being completed, we’re already working our behinds off to ensure another successful WordCamp!

Meanwhile, to my fellow Dabawenyos, we will soon be putting together more WordPress seminars (basic- and advanced-level sessions) before the summer is over within the next few weeks. Please refer to this blog for the schedules. And, yes, there will most probably be a Davao leg for WordCamp, just like last year.

Blog on!

    Pero kung talagang meron, sali ako!
    Good luck sa mga organizers! :-)

      :hmmm: …honga no? Ah pero sa ‘Tate start pa lang ng summer! LOL!

      Sige lang, puwede namang mag-seminar kahit may school na, diba?

      • Bunsoi 30 May 2009 at 8:46 pm #

        Sabagay, haha. Nyay, mukhang mahirap na ata, huhu.
        Basta, sana hapon or gabi if ever matuloy kasi totohanan na talaga this sem eh. Kumpetisyon na talaga, lol. So, kelngang mag seryoso na.
        Kung pwede rin, week end na lang sana..

    I hope you guys will breach the subject of mobile blogging as well as improving networking tools via WordPress, e.g. Facebook being used to promote websites and/or entities. Just some curiousities off the top of my head. :) More power
