Cebu Blog Camp 2010 Collections

Indeed the first ever Cebu Blog Camp is a huge success last May 22, 2010. The number of participants is way beyond my expectations. We have reached more than 90 of attendees from bloggers and non-bloggers in Cebu, Davao, Ilo-ilo, Cagayan de Oro and Manila. It is overwhelming and I appreciate the participants on their eagerness to know about blogging and its related topics.

With that, I would like to thank several people:

The Cebu Blog Camp team/organizers (please click link) who really worked hard to make the event possible from brainstorming of ideas, conceptualization of designs, theme, logo, topics, sponsorship proposals, flow of event, gathering resource persons, coordinating with volunteers, sleepless nights, canvassing of venue, and everything from the preparations to the final day of the event! Kudos to the 10 people behind Cebu Blog Camp 2010! These are dedicated bloggers with the passion to influence and inform the public on how blogging could positively affect the society!

Content is still king. Contents that are unique and of high quality and well-written are favorable to those who are looking for good and useful information. Read more…

November 06, 2008- ABS-CBN CEBU’s local lifestyle Sunday show, MagTV was chasing the Cebu Bloggers Society to be part of their program’s segment about BLOGGING. Five of the members (Kevin, Rodel, Jerry, Clarence) of the group including yours truly, ahem, OQ, graciously represented in front of the camera while Erwin Lim (the host) was mesmerized on how one could earn thru blogging and how it affects the young Cebuanos and its potential to influence the consensus of the masses. Notably, Rodel confessed how he earned much while getting serious in wasting his company’s facilities! (Kidding, LOL). The interview-set transpired in Figaro Coffee Company’s (where CBS usually hang-out) canopy area in the Walk, IT Park, Lahug, Cebu City. More photos here.
