In conjunction with my previous post about upcoming WordCamps worldwide, one significant event is about to unfold next month. The second WordPress WordCamp here in the Philippines was scheduled on 19 September 2009 at the Asian Institute of Management in Makati City.
WordCamp Philippines
WordCamp Philippines 2009 is expected to be graced by most Filipino WordPress users (majority of which are bloggers) and developers all over the country. A WordCamp is a great venue for WordPress enthusiasts to come together and showcase their love for the world’s leading blogging platform and at the same time serves as an avenue to encourage awareness of its enormously overwhelming capability not only as an effective blogging tool but as a Content Management System as well.
This time around, SoftwareCritics.info will be participating in the event for the first time since it was first held in September of 2008. A few days ago, yours truly signed up for the early-bird registration for the conference and in fact, this blog was one of the featured WordPress-powered sites on display.
It was really a great event worth looking forward to attending and it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to be a Filipino in order to attend; you can be from anywhere else. (Except from outer space! 
) If you love WordPress or willing to learn WordPress, then you’re absolutely welcome. See you there!
Update: 18 August 2009
WCP Store officially opens for exclusive WordCamp Philippines 2009 merchandise purchases online for with T-shirts (available in 3 different colors), stickers, and pop buttons.

i think this post is egoistic. Please ignore thyself when trying to announce something like this. It’s so full of you.
just my cent
I wonder why all negative comments and feedback results from Kampyle on this blog would have to come from fellow Filipinos.
Hi One, thanks for visiting this blog and I appreciate your opinion. It would have been better if you used your real name so I can address you properly. I’m sorry if you thought that I’m being egoistic in this post. Let me tell you that this is a blog, not a news website and I’m not writing a press release or whatsoever and the fact that this blog is mine, I’m entitled to my own voice, write at my own pace, and set the tone of my posts of which majority of bloggers do. You could have been more polite by leaving your comment along with your name on it and not just any lame alias to hide your identity because you’re aware that you’ve got nothing good to say. Just my two cents.
That’s a great news as people all over from the country will meet up at one place on a common platform, all of them having one goal. Its going to be a wonderful site i want to congratulate you for being the Featured blog!
This kind on meet up always result in sharing of idea and tips and forge new relations and partnerships. If you like you can update the whole event on your blog and share it with rest of the world.
Hi Frank, thanks for visiting. Like what you’ve mentioned, yes, I’ve been thinking of posting the latest updates regarding the event.
