Madayaw!!!

In behalf of my fellow organizers of the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit, I’d like to grab this chance to thank our first batch of sponsors. But before getting to those who came first, I’d like to announce that we’ve now signed up our pioneering external Major Sponsor, NoKiAHOST.com (P5/day webhosting) — that’s short for Network of Known internet Addicts Hosting Solutions. Neat huh?

NoKiAHOST.com will provide hosting and domain packages to lucky winners — will it be in the YGB! Review-a-Blog Competition? or in the Mindanao Blog Awards 2007? Abangan ang susunod na kabanata…

Councilor Pete Laviña, who is also a Major Sponsor++, is actually the event’s chairman and initiator.

As you might see over at our sidebar, under the “MBS1 Major Sponsors” heading, all of our Major Sponsors are listed there. Currently we have but two. Care to be the next one?

We’d like to send our thanks to our Minor Sponsors: BisayaBloggers.com, which is the forerunner of all blog aggregator sites in the Philippine South, site created by Ayeza Garcia; and, Davao’s Food Huntress, the blogger of which opts to remain anonymous at present. Curious, no?

Of course, let’s not forget our lone Donor, Lane Systems c/o Rodney Jao. Don’t be confused, “Lane Systems” isn’t a blog — it’s a company website! My good friend Rodney, as always, will allow the use of his company’s equipment for the Summit’s requirements. Lane Systems is one of the leading software development houses in Davao.

To top it off, our special co-branding sponsor for the YGB! Review-a-Blog Competition is DigitalFilipino.com, c/o Janette Toral. Janette has long been a supporter of the I.T. industry of the deep South. Join the DigitalFilipino.com Club — witness and participate in the growth of the country’s e-commerce and digital future!

Daghan salamat!! We look forward to a successful MBS1, thanks to you, our generous sponsors!
