It was really a happy day. Good weather and great bloggers from all over China. The more exciting thing is that Automattic sent Matt Mullenweg and Hailin Wu to us. WordPress is really a great platform that makes almost everyone (who uses it) benefits from it. I've been a WordPress user since Feb, 2007 and the ifgogo blog is also built using WordPress from the very beginning.
Like a lot of other "WPers", I've been contributing to some themes and plugins of WordPress as well. And fortunately that I got a chance to contribute to the upcoming Video feature of WordPress.com service. That's really a great experience to contribute to such a big community.
As the idea of WordPress is everyone contributes and everyone benefits, I hope the ifgogo project would follow the same way. We don't blog for money and fame, we just blog for the readers especially those who leave sweet or critical feedbacks to our interesting (or even bored) stories ;) - Though the ifgogo blog is currently still very young and simple, I am sure it will bring you happiness and friends every author blogs.
However, for some infamous and ridiculous reasons, people in China seldom express themselves to the public but the WordPress system really give everyone a chance to do, or at least to try, and finally becomes a blogger :) The WordCamp then gathers the great bloggers together to meet, and share.
To share, to contribute and also to get the friends, responses and sometimes benefits, that's why we blog for today, and tomorrow.
Yes, WordPress is a great blogging platform, and gives everyone a chance to express themselves online. ;)
Glad you had fun in your WordCamp! :)
Thanks Ria. But what a pity your blog is blocked from China due to the wordpress.com host. I have to access via a proxy :(
What a poor internet access condition, damn!!
just like ubuntu and PHP , wordpress also is both free and priceless at the same time.
Share!
that is why so many author bulid a lot of open source software.
Cause Share can beyond nation , country , language,even human civilization!
I love share ...
Yes, ifgogo is a project based on sharing stuff from China and Chinese people :)
I agree with you totally!
Blog seems now part of our life. It let people think more, write more and of course know more friend, so that life is not a narrow place but a vast space where you can get chance to know people all of the world. So that your life would be like a single flower in a large garden....lol
Our ifgogo blog is just like a drop of water and so we should put is into the sea of blogs, so that it never dry up, right?
In order not to lose face to you, I will stay here you are in a few words
Actually, I feel writing blog in Enlish is much more difficult than read others'.
So I decide to start with leaving comments. >_<
It's a pity that I didn't come to Beijing and attend this camp. And I hope we have chances in the future.
