WordCamp Philippines 2008

Bamtastic — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 18:55:42 +0000

It’s been eons since my last post. I said it somewhere before that I’m a busy blogger - too busy to blog. Anyway, I’m attending the first Wordpress Camp in Southeast Asia - WordCamp Philippines 2008! Woopeedoo!

So why am I attending if I don’t blog avidly? It’s because I do a lot of Wordpress as CMS gigs that require quite a lot of hacking to present content in a non-blog fashion kind of way.

That being said, in lieu of a fee, I’m suppose to post the information below to get in and so I can grab my Camper badge and kits.

This event is organized by the good folks of WordCamp Philippines 2008 and Mindanao Bloggers. Clap clap clap!

And the sponsors are:

If there’s anything that really creeps me out, it would be creatures that have more than 4 feet. But here’s the most creepiest and yet most fascinating thing I’ve ever seen.

If this doesn’t blow you away, I don’t know what would.

Sending Out an S.O.S - Live Earth Concerts

Bamtastic — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 23:29:46 +0000

In the recently concluded Live Earth Concert, for a Climate in Crisis, nothing can be more appropriate than the last song sung by Sting (The Police) - Message in a Bottle.

The 24-hour, 7-continent simultaneous massive concert done last 7.7.07 is over. However, it is just the start of a multi-year massive global campaign to solve Climate Crisis and the looming Energy Crisis. Participated by over 100 musicians and 2 billion people worldwide.

Got an Eat Your Heart Out Game Play Video? Post them on GeeVee.

Bamtastic — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 23:57:13 +0000

You’re glued to your screen. Engrossed as the events in your game unfolds. You take down, strike down all enemies and rivals. Then finally after sweating it all out you score, you win, your victorious!

But you have no one to share the glory of the moment with. No one cheering. No one patting your back. If you think that sucks, GeeVee.com is all about to change that.

Think YouTube for gamers. I checked them out after seeing them as one of the sponsors on the 104th episode of Diggnation. Everyone can upload all their brag-worthy game-play videos for everyone to see. And like any online video sites, you can embed GeeVee video anywhere on the web. Especially on your brag-blog. Haha.

Kinda like this captured video of FlatOut, Ultimate Carnage below.

The Ferrari ENZO, Are You Worthy?

Bamtastic — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 01:39:13 +0000

Ferrari’s engineering perfection, The ENZO is a masterpiece and is the fastest car ever tested in Top Gear with a maximum speed of 218 mph. Ferrari built 399 of these and they choose who’s worthy to own it.

Priced at about US$650,000, it’s 6.0 Liter V12 engine that zips 0-100 mph (160 kph) then brakes to a full stop in 10.9 seconds. So here it is.

You got to love this guy. Frank Caliendo does great and really funny impressions of George “Dubya” Bush, Al Pacino, Robin Williams, David Letterman and of course John Madden (National Football League player, head coach, hall-of-famer, and now NFL commentator).
