Today, I did two WordPress-related things. First, I upgraded my blog to version 2.6 — thanks to Dreamhost for making this easier for me with just one click — and I registered for the 1st WordCamp Philippines, an event brought to us by the Mindanao Bloggers.

When I found out this morning that I have to write a post about the WordCamp I honestly hesitated for a bit (coz I was lazy). Then I realized that the event is completely free and writing this post is the least I can do for them. Heh. Beggars can’t be choosers. :P And I do love WordPress to bits!
