BlogParteeh Aftermath

AJ Jorge January 27th, 2007

BlogParteeh

I just got back from the BlogParteeh. It’s always fun meeting online friends in real life. There were lots of people and all are blogging enthusiasts. I get to shake hands with Mr. Bo Sanchez, Ms. Malou Mangahas of GMANews.tv, Noemi Dado of About My Recovery, Janette Toral who spearheads iBlog conventions in the country and of course Abe of Yugatech.com.

Please don’t flame me if I am not able to mention your site here. Although Pierre and Mike Abundo actually encourage flaming, a nice comment post would be better. I shared the table with the couple Chris and Apples and Noypi.com administrator Jozzua Apao. I finally met Ederic after a long time of exhanging comments in our respective sites.

The old familiar faces were there. Markku and Kiven bragging their Google adsense revenue and PR juices. Jun, Jomar and Juned whom I met last September BlogCon where there and all three are part of the steering committee.

Since I am digital-camera-deprived these days, I’ll just wait for the fellow bloggers to put up the pictures and link it here (link love baby!).

It was a great event. A big bang to start the new year for bloggers.

Muntik ko nang malimutan, I won the 30gb iPod video. Grand prize lang naman sya at pinalad lang na matawag ang number ko. Extra thanks goes to Enthropia, Inc. {Boracay.com.ph, Recipes.com.ph, WebMaster.com.ph} for sponsoring the iPod. Laki pa rin ng ngiti ko hanggang ngayon. ü

====================

Ganns wrote something funny about the way I accepted the iPod. “3. The winner of the I-Pod, AJ, accepted his prize in the coolest way ever…
Benj followed it up with “The iPod went to AJ. He struck a messiahnic rockstar pose…”

Yuga, Me and iPod

    jester: man! you think you have a chance winning against me in a mano-a-mano duel?

    you, against my supa moves? heck, my supa-mega-geek-blogga needle-sharp elbow jab (patent pending) has been known to deflate opponents four times my size (of course, being the skinny guy that i am, most of my opponents happen to be four times my size hahaha)

    iPod. hand it over. NOW. wahaha
