Guys – readers, sai sabok? It’s been
a while that we’ve been disconnected. Sorry that I cannot commit
myself to keep you guys updated of what’s going on and on lately even
there was something surprising just happened. I am glade to be
reconnected and a thousand of misses I have brought with. Thank you
for all who have commented and encourage me on my last post – my
first video Blog, It was really fun to play with the video; now I am
playing more with editing and making it more fun to watch heheh…I
hope to bring it up more soon in the next next posts. Thank you Beth
for the Kiddycam and two video blogging (Vlog) books, I have found it
interesting and useful.

Oop, before it’s going to long long;
let me answer you one question you might wanna ask “where have you
been?”. Well I have been to Kampot once last week, thank Vutha for
taking me there I was really enjoy the trip and happy to see lives
there I should have a post on that but sorry again that I could
just make it now, probably later. Actually, some of you may have
known that I have been busy doing organizing the first ever Cambodian
Blogger Summit which was just happened on 30-31 August 2007 with the
cloggers friends – lux and chantra. I was willing to keep update
about how was the event going but I couldn’t just make so, sorry,
because I had to run around to keep the event going smooth and so bad
no connection at home. However, I am so happy that everyone did a
great job for live reporting from the event and some after the event;
here I have scanned on some links about it:

After the event I was just have to take
some time to recover — rest for a few days. Haha I was really enjoy
sleeping but also was getting bore soon after because no connection
to keep you guys updated about what was happening. Wonder when will
Internet go to everyone’s house? CityLink, CityLink…. hm, sounds
like it’s funny right? that one of the Internet event organizer got
so much disconnect? Haha I miss Citylink again

How was the cloggers Summit?

In short, I think it’s interesting and
happy! I was really proud that everything went well and happy even,
it was keeping me exhausted few days. I am not gonna re-describe
about the event again here since everyone already have reported it in
their posts. Here the list of links

Even, the Cambodia Daily and Phnom Penh
Post also have reported it here and here. There are
also almost thousand of photos on flickr with tag ‘cloggersummit2007′
here, and the videos here.

Not going to describe but I would like
to give some notes that I have noticed it is not covered. We did a
live interesting Skype connection from the US — Kalyan and Malaysia
– Premesh Chanran, thank so much Prem for your time to join us.
This was quoted on skypejournal. But so sorry that we cannot connect
the BlogDay innovator, Nir Ofir, on the second day. There’s also live
broadcasting of the event on Usteam.tv at cloggersummit.net/live
couple of people abroad have watch us and join us virtually. I have
got email from ustream team that the show has got 2.5 of 5 of
popularity which is not bad thank you CityLink for equipping us
with a good WiFi connection.

Again, special thank to Beth Kanter and
all people from Global Voices Online – David, Preetam, Geoffry who
flew hundred miles to join us. Thank to Thomas Woff, Steve Goodman,
Phil Lee, John Weeks, Ken Chanthan, Mark Sarath, Mile Fowler, Phatry
Pan, Raymond Leos, Phann Ana, and all the speakers who has made the
event interesting and fun. Thank you IRI and Open Institute for
sponsoring and GlobalVoicesOnline, CityLink, Beth’s Blog, Open Forum
of Cambodia and House32 for supporting us. And, of cause, thank you
to all participants who have joined, I hope to see you again some
time soon.

Last but not least, that I always
wanted to say is thank you to all the tech companies and NGOs who
have donated us nice tech t-shirts via Beth. We all love it so much.
I am not a soccer fan, but I am a fan of all tech companies and NGOs,
all you guys who are changing the world.

See you all again soon
