The Deadbeats

The big day at last! Here’s a timeline of the events that transpired during Wordcamp Philippines 2008. Please do pardon the quality of the pictures as I don’t have a camera. (Yes, I suck)

6:30AM - Woke up early to prepare. Made sure that I’m prepared.

7:20AM - Took a jeep to the Baclaran LRT Station. Arrived at around 8:00AM, took a short walk to the station after getting off the jeep. Damn, the place is still so dirty and full of vendors even after all of these years. I don’t think this will change in my lifetime. Take note NOT to bring any bling while walking there. You might not walk out with anything afterwards.

8:10AM - Arrived at the venue, De La Salle University - College of St. Benilde. There was a short line when I arrived for registration, due to some minor issues at security. Got helped out by Blogie Robillo (one of the organizers). Had my first encounter with the organizing team, helpful bunch. One even escorted me when I asked  where the canteen is. (I didn’t eat breakfast, had to rush)

I wrote some stuff here but for some strange reason didn’t get saved.

Dammit.

In any case, 3G internet is an excellent way to get access in case of emergencies. W00t.

PS: Yes, I’m lazy to re-write the whole thing.

Firefox 3 is now out!

I’m taking it on a test drive now, still getting used to the new layout.

To download the latest version, just go to:

This has been around the internet for a while but, I can’t help but post it here.

If you will notice the 2 featured videos at the right side of the screen, those are some short clips of what the show is all about. Basically, the premise of the show is about a team of about 2 to 4 people trying to fit into a rushing foam with carved shapes. Failure to fit into the shape/s gets the contestants pushed into hot or cold water (depends).

Hilarity ensues once the contestants start competing to fit into the shapes or falling into the water hard.
