4. What makes this campaign outstanding?
Learning through sharing. Having an open mind about learning from anything or anyone will help you go a long way in this field. Technology changes faster than we can keep track of. Be willing to learn. Be respectful of those who are spending the time to teach you. As community we should be open to sharing information and teaching. Not only is it vital for what we do, but it’s also a great way to gain better understanding. Teaching is the best way to learn.

That’s what we do at WebGeek Philippines! We work on creating a venue where you as web enthusiasts can learn, share and connect with other Filipino Web Users. Thank you to the many members who have contributed to the continuing production of this community.

Campaign Name: www.pinoycallture.com

Campaign Description: An online forum dedicated to call center employees.
A specific campaign is the membership recruitment that started when the site went online last July 2009. We set up a Facebook page, a Facebook Fan Page, a Facebook Group Page, an account in Multiply, Friendster, Myspace and Twitter. As of now, we have some 1,170 members in www.pinoycallture.com and some 5,000 members in our social networking sites. We recently had a first EB of our members in Makati.

The membership recruitment drive online will make www.pinoycallture.com familiar to all employees in the BPO industry and hopefully encourage them to become members of the site.
