2nd Visayas Blogging Summit 2011

Yipee! Another blogging event to attend. This time it's Visayas Blogging Summit 2011. Bloggers all over Visayas islands are invited to join this largest gathering of Visayas bloggers on November 26, 2011 at SM City Cebu. So near and so convenient. :)

This year's theme is Blogging and Beyond. Sounds like the organizers are bringing blogging to the next level. Upholding to the bloggers its social responsibility to the community they were in. But I'm more interest with the talk about personal blogging. :) Plus, I'll going to meet again prominent Cebu Bloggers in town.

But just a few moments ago, I have read this slide presentation from Lloyd Tronco about "Why Visayans Should Blog". Since attending Cebu blog camp this year, I have been thinking about blogging those places I'm going to visit. I have been planning to make another blog, maybe a travel blog. But that plan never materialized. I had been to Canigao island, to Camotes, to Dumaguete, to Danasan Eco Park, Danao City. I could have written hundreds of blogs out from those visits I've done. This slide presentation reminds me of that plan.

I guess, as a Cebuano it is my social responsibility to my home province, Cebu to preserve her people's culture and past. I should have allowed myself to be a Guardian of Cebu's culture and history. I should have allowed myself to be a Chronicler of Cebu's events. Through blogging. Thanks to Mr. Lloyd Tronco for making me realized that. Guess it's not yet too late. I can always start now. Right?

Main organizer for 2011 Visayas Blogging Summit is Cebu Bloggers Society, Inc. With SM City Cebu and Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Inc as this year's co-organizer. Sponsors include: WatsonsGeiser Maclang, Virtual staff finder, Solidhosting.phCebu Directories and Bluewater Resorts, Honeycomb Finance Consultancy and Pinoy Great Deals. Can't wait for their freebies to be given away to the participants.

Media Partners include: Cebu Daily News, Sunstar, Freeman, ABS CBN and GMA.

Hope and pray that I can join this blogging event. I'll cross my fingers. Can't wait to meet Janette Toral again. And maybe, I could meet Lloyd Tronco, too. Maybe one of these days. Who knows?
