BlogCon 1.0

As of November 5, 2007, drivebyshooter.net will no longer be updated. For posts on photography, you can now go to LightChasers Photography. For the author's personal site, head over to the Dark Corner.

I’ve held out writing about the BlogCon, but all that effort, or lack thereof, will now go to waste. Yes, I went to the first Philippine BlogCon last Monday, and yes, this is my post about it.

It was a blast.

That’s all I can really say that hasn’t already been said. Heck, even that statement has been made already, so I’m still echoing others. I guess, yet again, I’m at a loss for words.

Unfortunately for me, I didn’t really meet a whole lot of people. Despite what some people may think, I’m shy. I hid behind my camera for most of the event, and only really spoke with the people at my table, some others I got introduced to, and those I recognized from the past.

Ok, so maybe that last paragraph hasn’t been said before, but it was about me, not the BlogCon. If you really want to know what happened, I suggest you do any of the following:
1. Go to the BlogCon wiki, or
2. Visit the following links (listed, for some reason, in alphabetical order): 1st Philippine BlogCon, After the 2006 Blogcon, Back from BlogCon 2006, BlogCon 2006, BlogCon 2006 was a Blast, BlogCon Aftermath, Pinoy Bloggers Face-to-Face, Seen & heard at the 1st Philipine BlogCon 2006, Teh BlogCon is the Shizzle!, What Happened at BlogCon 2006? and read what they have to say about it.

    i’ve noticed that most of the bloggers there were either techies or inclined to the arts. Come to think of it, Blogging is the marraige of art and tech.

    hope to catch you on the next BlogCon

    […] The BlogCon last September was, in Sasha’s words, Teh Shizzle. I agree - I was there. It wasn’t a very long affair, but some of us stuck around till the wee hours of the morning. […]
