I already registered and paid my contribution for the WordCamp Philippines 2010. I submitted my information and scheduled the Breakaway Talks that I’ll be attending. I’ve chosen my t-shirt size and also provided my food preferences. All I have to do now is print out the ticket and then I’m all set!

The Word Camp Philippines 2010 is a good opportunity for me to meet other bloggers and WordPress users and expand my network as I seldom attend these types of activities. I would like to get to know more people and exchange ideas on blogging and social media as a whole.

This will be my first time to attend the Word Camp in the Philippines and I’m excited that I’ll be flying to Manila and participate in discussions with speakers who already know a lot about their craft. I’ll be able to take part in an important event that I’ll be able to take pride in as it’s only a few times that I take part in these occasions.

These are the Three Breakaway Talks I’ll be listening to:

930AM - 1025AM
SEO, Optimizing Ads, and Blog Flipping
by Rocky Tayaban
Get the lowdown on essential SEO strategies that matter with discussions on SEO techniques that don't work. Plus ads optimization and blog flipping.
Track: Advanced

1030AM - 1125AM
WordPress as CMS
by Kevin Codamon
A case study on how Level Up!, the country's first and biggest online games publisher, started using WordPress as a content management system (CMS) during a time when local companies still relied on proprietary software.
Track: Advanced

1130AM - 1225PM
Optimizing WordPress Webserver Performance
by Eric Malloy
Optimizing WordPress webserver performance with PHP-fpm nginx and memcached with discussions on common security exploits and how to protect against them.
Track: Developer

I hope my nose won’t bleed by that time. I filed for vacation leaves at the office so I can have the time off away from Cebu for awhile. I’m excited especially when they rolled out the subdomain (http://central.wordcampphilippines.com). I found the wall a very cool feature that they added.

Event: WordCamp Philippines 2010
Date: October 2, 2010
Place: College of Saint Benilde, Taft Avenue, Manila, Philippines

It’s just a month and a half left so see you at Wordcamp guys!
