Most Scary WordPress Moment

To join the discussion that is going on over at the Weblogtoolscollection, a website that delivers WordPress related news views updates and whatsoever that’s connected and related to WordPress; here’s my post about the most craziest, scary moment in my whole WordPress life.

I’ve taken down a lot of blogs that I formerly administered and wrote on. Sometimes,  a plugin messed up, and sometimes I just came to click the wrong button, yet my foolish mind that time didn’t know what powerful tool I’m using and where it would lead me, so I can’t call those events as scary.

There has been this day where everything went wrong, from server load to server downtime and yes, simply everything. I felt a little bit scared on what would happen with my blogging future but still it’s not the most scariest moment of them all. Do I even have one? Yes I do have one.

I come to recall the day when one of my arch rivals of the former foruming business that I was in told me that he would hack my website, my WordPress installation and make it disappear, I know, it sounded pretty much unconvincing to believe that such a fool could to that, but hey, doesn’t fools tend to do whatever they want to do when we expect least from them? :p XD. Good that there was this plugin called Stealth Login and my login page was secure at all times from any codes that he could bring it.

But wait? Where’s my scariest moment now?

Software Freedom Day 2008

This is it, today is the day, today is the Software Freedom Day 2008, an Free Open Source Software (FOSS) related event for geeks of all kind, from bloggers, to programmers, coders and the amateur ones around. Like Princess has mentioned already, I will be there at the venue today and I will be speaking and representing WordPress, the best, if not the only ultimate open source blogging plattform.

For those living in the Davao Area and are interested to see me, just a quick reminder, the venue for the event will be the University of Mindanao Matina Auditorium, things will kick off at 1PM. If in case you care to meet me personally, you can always contact me via my mobile number 09153815289.

Just a short update about my father, he’s not really feeling much better, he is at the Davao Doctors Hospital now. He has been readmitted earlier this morning at around 3PM. I only had 2 hours of sleep, from 1AM to 3AM as my mother suddenly woke me up saying that I should accompany both of them to the hospital since my father’s abdomen pain started again. (that quite sounds like a personal entry XD)

So, I’d like to apologize to everyone, especially to my entrecard droppers for not being able to drop back on you since I don’t have internet at home right now. Alam nyo naman, SMARTBROKEN.
