A video guide to the Ping.sg celebration - by an absentee!

8 Jul 2007 (Sun)

THANKS TO WEB 2.0 AND CHILLYCRAPS, I managed to follow this morning much of what had happened at the Ping.sg’s first anniversary celebration at the Geek Terminal yesterday afternoon on 07/07/2007 — even though I couldn’t be there at all. ;-)

First, I read Chillycraps’ Pinging Party post and found the official recording of the live Ping.sg webcast on Ustream:
.

This recording, however is almost three hours long! :-p So, here’s a quick guide to this video:

  • 0:00 NTT and Rinaz warming up the camera, people streaming in, testing on stage…
  • 39:00 Award Presentation begins with MCs Brendan and Rinaz.
  • 45:00 Most Entertaining Blog: Chillycraps
  • 51:15 Most Interactive Blog: EastCoastLife
  • 58:00 Most Insightful Blog: Cobalt Paladin (entertaining video around 62:00)
  • 71:00 Best Photoblog: Keropok Man
  • 81:00 Best Blog Design: Veron
  • 88:30 Most Controversial Post: EastCoastLife
  • 97:35 Most Entertaining Post: EastCoastLife
  • 103:42 Most Insightful Post: dk99
  • 115: Best Citizen Journalist Post: dk99
  • 120:30 Post of The Year: EastCoastLife
  • 125:30 Blog Of The Year: Veron (Suddenly, there was no sound!)
  • 131:00 How Ping.sg Got Started (Haha! Uzyn used the word “Web 2.0″ to describe Ping.sg!)


Next, read Chillycraps’ What the Fish post and found two amusing video recordings by Rinaz:

1. Fishes! (Technology: Reactrix)

2. Hammer Fight!

Looks like I’ve missed some very fun moments. Still, thankfully, I can participate in them vicariously. Happy birthday, Ping.sg! Congratulations, U-zyn and all award winners! Thank you, all who have made this online “following” possible!
