Wow! We were not able to attend the main WordCamp but we have a mini WordCamp here in Davao last Sept. 4 so I search how the Manila camp went on. It wasn’t as big as in Manila but we still enjoy. Great site.
Thanks for the breakdown of events! I arrived during the last 20 minutes of WordCamp.
With the number of post regarding Wordcamp it seems that I am also there..
Thank you so, so much for volunteering!
