Last December 6, 2008, Nuffnang bloggers and consumers gathered together to attend the Sony Expo 2008 at the SMX Center beside Mall of Asia. The place was jam-packed as early as 9:00AM and a lot of bloggers both VIP and non VIP holders lined up early for the event too.
Nuffnangers at the registration area
As we all know, Sony in partnership with Nuffnang launched an online blog contest on the “My First Sony Experience.” Registered Nuffnang bloggers were challenged to compose a blog entry on their first ever Sony product and how it made a significant difference in their lifestyles. The consumers were able to show their first Sony experiences creatively by making videos, photo blogging, creative writing and so much more. The blog contest was also a sentimental journey, as consumers recalled just how Sony, like no other brand, has figured in their lives. The one who had the most innovative blog entry won a Sony Cyber-shot T700, which was given by the Cyber-shot endorser herself, Ms. KC Concepcion.
The top 3 Commendable Sony Experience Entries on Stage. They are Ms. Lena, John Dale and Emz!
They all went home with a Sony music player! Congratulations! good job guys!

Meet the My Sony Experience contest winner,Mr. Mike Pamero!!!
Mike Pamero, a son of an OFW blogged about his first Sony products which were a Trinitron TV and a Betamax, which he fondly calls as “katas ng Saudi.” He paid homage to his father, with Sony being a symbol of his love and self-sacrifice. Congratulations Mike! Sony and Nuffnang loved your entry!

Off course! He had to do this on stage! Go Mike!!!:)

After the program, Bloggers went around the whole Sony Expo to see the booths and offcourse, to camwhore! :)
Definitely a Sony day to remember and an experience beyond compare especially to the winners! But as mentioned, the fun does not stop once the event is over! Taking its merry generosity even further, Sony is staging another phase to its consumer blogging contest and giving everyone a chance to win a cool VAIO C. Anyone who is dreaming of a white (VAIO) Christmas must pray to all the muses and write a creative blog entry about the breakthrough products he or she has encountered at Sony Expo 2008. Entries are welcome until December 19, 2008. You can view the Contest Mechanics and details here.
So to those who attended the event, submit your entries now! We can’t wait to see and read your own version of the Sony Expo 2008!
Thank you again to all the Nuffnangers who participated in this contest and to those who came to the event! We hope you had fun as much as we did! Stay tuned for the winner of the Best post event entry!!!!
See you all at the next Nuffnang Event!!!
Thanks to Ada for the other photos!

December 12th, 2008 at 10:41 pm
Thanks to Nuffnang and SOny for the great event!
High-resolution ata ang na-upload na pics kya mabigat sa network =) I suggest palitan ng low-res but considerable for the benefit of more coming viewers; DSL pa ako nyan ah….na-imagine ko lng ung mga not dsl. =(
December 12th, 2008 at 10:48 pm
Hi!
The reason the pics load very slowly is because they were not optimized for web viewing.
Apparently, they were posted to the web direct from the digicam used to take the shots. The first photo, which I saved by right-clicking on it, “weighed” 3,719 KB. When I viewed this using Irfanview (by the way, to me, an indispensable freeware from http://www.irfanview.com) and then saved it with a width of 1280 pixels, it was reduced to just 136 KB, without any noticeable loss of quality.
I hope the one responsible for posting the pictures will optimize the file sizes for snappy web viewing.
God bless to all!
December 12th, 2008 at 11:27 pm

i quote:
Hi Nuffnangers!
We know that you guys have been so busy with Christmas vacation just around the corner. So many deadlines and things to do before the end of the year, right? So we are giving you an extension for the deadline of the Post event blog contest! That’s right! We will now close the contest on DEC. 22 at 12 a.m. and we will announce the winner on DEC 23!
We have already seen the blog entries and we’re so happy with some of them that really looked like it took them a lot of time and effort to do so. However, since it is Christmas season and all, we are treating this as another Christmas gift just for you!
So yes Nuffnangers! Another chance for you to write and blog your heart out! We are sooo excited to see all your entries! Just imagine, a NEW VAIO LAPTOP at the very start of the year! Talk about a great start! :)
Good luck to all of you and Merry Christmas!
Cheers to all!
Nuffnang Team

Just got this email from Nuffnang:
Hey Nuffnangers!
Nuffnang and Sony would like to thank you all for the overwhelming support and response that you’ve given us especially to those who followed until the Post- Event contest. Due to the amazing response and blog entries submitted, we would like to inform you guys that we would announce the winner of the post-event contest on January 9, 2009.
Sony and Nuffnang were so psyched and happy with the submitted blog entries that we are still in the process of deciding who will be the winner. Again, we would like to thank all of you especially to those who followed and supported us until the post-event contest.
Have fun and Happy Holidays to all!
Cheers,
The Nuffnang team
December 23rd, 2008 at 12:53 pm
waaaaaaaaaaah kakabitin hahaha excited pa naman lahat, mukhang malupet ang competition they can’t decide hahahaa… how about letting all win nalang hehehehe! pang merry christmas,happy new year, HAPPY BIRTHDAY for me! hahahaha Please please please!
December 23rd, 2008 at 12:55 pm
bakit ako wala ko nareceive na email? =(
December 23rd, 2008 at 1:08 pm
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!
December 23rd, 2008 at 2:42 pm
kahit walkman ulit payag ako!!! XD
December 23rd, 2008 at 3:53 pm
Question: Does that mean that entries can still be edited? or have u guys like taken screenies already to track kung may changes?
December 23rd, 2008 at 3:58 pm
hmm yeah. What would prevent the contestants from ‘editing’ their entries to make it better from the one they originally submitted? Since as per Nuffnang’s email, they still have not judged the entries yet?
December 23rd, 2008 at 4:55 pm
maybe they printed the entries. onga, earthlinggorgeous, sana lahat ulit may prize (paran freebie last expo). konti na lang naman ata ang nagjoin. hahaha.. :p
December 23rd, 2008 at 5:03 pm
wow, astig ung may AVP. kewlness to the nth power. competitive advantage talaga!
December 23rd, 2008 at 10:46 pm
grabe! hehehe, talagang nakakabitin kamo, akala ko may nanalo na yun pala abangan ang susunod na kabanata! wakekeke
December 24th, 2008 at 9:14 am
blog entries from blogs only days old (put up just to enter the contest)are accepted.i should have prodded my nephew who is a tech-savvy to put up a blog, upload some pics for his first post, join nuffnang, join the contest, then forget about his “blog” after the contest.
the deadline postponement is also wrecking havoc on the submitted entries. a lot of evolving has occurred. authors blog hop then make modifications on their posts even after submission of entries. i wonder if changes between now and jan.9 will still be considered?
anyway, for bloggers out there and to the people behind nuffnang:
Merry Christmas !
December 24th, 2008 at 10:09 am
basta ako i didn’t make any modification on my blog post bahala sila :P tutal nuffnang got the original submitted entries naman I hope they took screenshots and printed diba :)
December 24th, 2008 at 10:12 am
hiyee nuffnangers! :)
oh da vah.. life’s full of surprises talaga..hahah :D
Last week, we were all ngarag-to-death; rushing our entries just to make the deadline – tapos na-move ng bonggang-bongga si deadline =)
Then mega-antay for the results (im sure ung iba jan di na nakatulog 22 pa lang..hehe :D just to find out na sa Jan.9,09 pa pala ang “grand reveal”.
at least di ba Jan 9, 09 -> bonggang pakinggan! :D
on the brighter side of things, we still have lots of time…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
lots of time para magpakabait at mag-pray for that SONY VAIO! (yehheeyyy!)
Wishing u all a meaningful Christmas filled with love & joy!
Merry CHRISTmas!!! :)
December 24th, 2008 at 10:20 am
@ desperateblogger actually I was holding my tongue until I saw your blog post about the extension of deadline. Like what I commented on your blog it’s kinda unfair for those who tried to make it to the deadline. And then this one I tried to google to see how many entries are there for the contest I didn’t see a hundred or the others hid their blogs and google did not index them? They were not indexed because they are a day old blog? I didn’t know that.
Naku naman this is so sad knowing it’s gonna be Christmas mukhang sama ng loob pa ata. Sana lahat nalang may consolation especially those who made it to the first deadline para everybody happy.
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday!
Smile everyone!
December 24th, 2008 at 11:24 am
earthling gorgeous: exactly. blogs have to be at the least 2 months old to be indexed by google in relation to page rank. if it’s NA, then google has not indexed it yet because it’s new. new blogs can surface in search engines too but who the heck will read their posts if they don’t have traffic?
nga pala, i read that it’s your birthday. so..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
December 24th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
Actually that’s the reason why I asked as soon as they announced about the extension. Because unless pre-judged, screenies may not be enough to guarantee that no changes were made in the entries :)
And since no guideline was made regarding possible changes, I am just hoping that they have a way of knowing if some have evolved since there is a lot of time between dec 23-jan 9 pa.
Anyway, Merry Christmas sa lahat at magluluto pko lol.
December 24th, 2008 at 6:04 pm
i do share the same sentiments with you guys…
pero im pretty sure naman that they (sony,nuffnang) already figured it out how to handle such situation, knowing that moving the schedule would imply advantage over those who tried their best just to make it on-time :)
@ dale >>> huwaaaw!!! talagang magluluto ka pa ha :D Does it mean pwede kaming mamasko sa inyo, tutal sa Mandaluyong ka lng naman eh..hehehe :D
@ desperateblogger >>> am i right sa Bacoor lng kau?? so pedeng-pedeng mamasko rin!! yahuuu! :D
@ earthlingorgeous >>> oi, berdey mo pla… HAFI BERDEY!!!! :D invited ba kami sa bonggang party mo??hehehe :D
December 25th, 2008 at 1:34 am
ako naman, thankful sa pagextend, otherwise, i wouldnt have made it. as in no time to blog. was even sad but when i got the email regarding the extension, ay happy ako. could be a sign that I would win, even if it meant winning a sony battery for a consolation (mike, remember my dead battery?.. sana nakisabay ako sa pagcharge mo lols).
anyway, i thought only a few would be joining.. thus, my comment above. cause we were only about 30 bloggers there, if am not mistaken… not sure though, but maybe the students there got tempted so they checked on nuffnang, learned about the contest, put up a blog, and joined.
but one thing i learned from this, i need to learn how to make an AVP. waaah. and i thought graphics would be enough (as katas ng saudi has proven).
ps: earthling gorgeous, happy birthday… mwah :)
December 25th, 2008 at 1:35 am
@Mike: I agree. I’m sure Nuff has taken steps naman to ensure the integrity of the contest kasi sila naman ang pro sa ganito. So yeah, malapit lang ako sa shangrila sa shaw lol. Kapagot magluto waaaa. Kain mode ulit. *burp*
December 25th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
ahahaha! dame na pala kwento about the extension! heheheh! i made my crappy post narin before the deadline pa at nangarap to grab the sony vaio, hehehehe! pero ng enjoy ako sa expo sana meron pa sunod! happy Christmas!
December 26th, 2008 at 8:56 am
@ sunny >>> huh? where’s the crappy post??? ang galeng kaya! talagang VIP experience :D another strong contender for that gorgeous SONY VAIO! :)
December 29th, 2008 at 1:15 pm
