"...and the Best Male Blogger 2014 is..." #BlogCamp14

It has been a blessed couple of days and just before Easter, I heard one of the best lines ever of 2014 "...and the Best Male Blogger at the Ghana Blogging and Social Media awards is Emmanuel Gamor..." At the Blogging and Social Media Awards in 2014

Last year, this blog was nominated for "Best Photo Blog" Category #BlogCamp13

This year I was nominated twice: "Best Male Blogger" & "Best Blog" categories respectfully.

My most important tweet that night:



MeshTV Ghana created a video montage from BlogCamp14 and a snippet from the photoblogging session I facilitated:

Content is King #BlogCamp13

My first Blog Camp and  I thoroughly enjoyed the networking experience. Besides meeting old friends, I finally met faces & characters behind the blogs and tweets I follow fervently. The event was informative and one of the better attended ones that has been organized by my peers, since I've been in the country. The Kofi Annan ICT center was packed to capacity with spill-over in the hall-ways from late morning through the Ghana Social Media Awards segment of the night.

US Ambassador to Ghana whisked through and used the event out-door the embassy's new tumblr account. I got to meet Google Ghana's Estelle Akrofi-Sowah, Be Bold's Christal Jean (now Christal Beeko) and Mutombo Da Poet for the first time.
