Let’s go WordCamp-ing
I’ve only started to hit the ground running on my blog and there are still a myriad of things to learn about Wordpress. Being a first-time domain owner, I’ve taken a beating on learning how to configure MySQL databases, installing Wordpress 2.6, and constituting a suitable theme – with the support and assistance of my friends AJ and Will.
What better way to learn about this superb blogging engine than going to a camp? WordCamp Philippines 2008!
Southeast Asia’s first ever WordCamp is in the Philippines and will be held at the College of St. Benilde on September 6, 2008 (Saturday), from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
