Sleepwalking through iBlog3

The 3rd Philippine Blogging Summit, or iBlog3 for short (don't ask... I don't understand the logic either), was like a dream. Literally. I'm not used to being awake before noon, so I was drifting in and out of sleep throughout the two-day event.

Because I arrived at 11 AM on Day 1 and 10:30 on Day 2, I missed some of the early morning speakers. That's no big deal. I can just visit their blogs and get a pretty good idea on what their lectures would have been like. But missing the mid-morning snack on Day 1... now that's really sad.

Overall, the most entertaining session was Dean Alfar's lecture on... hmm, I don't even remember what it was about, but it sure was great stand-up comedy. The most boring one? Probably Atty. Jaime Soriano's long lecture on copyright. In fairness, I don't know for sure if all of it was boring, because I fell asleep after the first few minutes, heh. I know, I know, I'm such a disrespectful kid. I apologize. I do like his website's very useful law library, which I've bookmarked a long time ago.

During the lunch breaks, I hanged out with Arbet, who has cool hair (it looks similar to mine, so of course it's cool), and Dhon Jason, who has a cool camera. I must thank them for enduring my incoherent semi-conscious ramblings.

As I waited for the next session to start after lunch on Day 1, I chatted briefly with the two people seated behind me, Avi and Tim, and made them write down their URLs. I intended to do the same with everyone in the room, but the nearest stranger was one seat away, which meant that I had to stand up. My brain said go, but my lazy butt said no. Guess who won?

There was an open mic session, and I did get off my butt for that--couldn't miss the chance to mention chickenmafia.com. Quite a few others got up to talk about their blogs, but I couldn't write down the URLs because I forgot to bring a freaking pen. I did manage to remember the one about Baguio because I hate that city, and also the Pink Urinal blog because it has a catchy name.

Speaking of catchy.... On Day 2, this guy who calls himself the Jester-in-Exile wore a nice jester hat.

Damn... that's so much cooler than my Chicken Mafia T-shirt! I've got to wear a chicken suit to iBlog4. Hey, I'm serious. If someone can get me a chicken suit, I'll wear it, I swear.
