(Updated) WordCamp PH 2009: Citizen journalism, blogging and the 2010 elections

6 Comments

Allow me to share the recorded video of my lecture at WordCamp Philippines 2009 last September 19 (Saturday) at the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) in Makati City. I traveled from South Korea to the Philippines to show my support for the initiative of the Mindanao Bloggers in organizing this annual event which is in its second year.

My lecture titled “2010 elections and the bloggers’ obligation” focuses on citizen journalism, responsible blogging and what bloggers can do to help shape public opinion in time for the 2010 elections.

There was live streaming via Ustream.tv of the whole-day conference and the wordcampph channel has 16 video files uploaded in its archive.

I hope you’ll find the time to watch the proceedings of WordCamp Philippines 2009. It’s definitely worth it.

If you’re interested to watch my lecture, a substantial part of it has been recorded in the following Ustream.tv archived files:

You may watch these three archived files now.



Anyway, some bloggers wrote about what they had learned from my lecture. Here is a partial list based on a quick Internet search as of this writing: (Updated: September 26, 11:20 p.m. and October 23, 6:33 p.m.)

To the bloggers who attended WordCamp 2009 or who viewed the live streaming last September 19: Please leave a comment if I failed to include your blog post about your reflections on citizen journalism, responsible blogging and the 2010 elections.

Thank you for reading and I wish you all the best.
