Where do I BEGIN?

Step 5: Create tags as recommended: certified senior bloggista, tribute campaign for senior bloggista. See sample below.

Step 6: According to the instruction:

You have to discuss on how you started as a blogger.

How did I start as a blogger? Around 2006, I joined the  forum.mamboserver.com fascinated with CMS. At that time, I was a newbie Mambo user and mambo forum er “tagged” by the Mambo Gurus as newbie helping newbies. Hey, that was the height of the Mambo-Joomla! schism and  nobody was there except few of us who keep the faith alive. Helping out others at the forum was just our expression of giving back to the community and a real hands-on elearning experience for me.

After six months or a year when I understood where Joomla! community was heading, I joined the Joomla! forum too. Right at that time, I met WordPress.  To make my story short, I started blogging hours after Joomla! Beta 2 was opened for download and testing. You can read it under “Blogger’s Profile.”

Step 7: According to the instruction:

Write a tribute for all the senior bloggista that you know. Write something about their blog’s on how much you like their contributions in the blogosphere.
