The Batang Yagit and Queen Ria have come up with very interesting ways to promote the ongoing You Got Blogged! Review-a-Blog Competition.
Instead of just inviting everyone to join the contest and review any blog in the Mindanao Blog Directory, what the Yagit and the Queen are doing is to encourage bloggers to review their blogs. [...]
The successful Summit is done… but we have more online and offline events to come! One is the ongoing You Got Blogged! DigitalFilipino.com / MindanaoBloggers.com Review-a-Blog Competition. As I’ve said during MBS1, I hope to see more Mindanao bloggers participate. But actually, YGB! is open to everyone who owns a blog!
In behalf of Andrew, Dominique, Jun, Kim, Migs, Ria — my friends in The Usual Suspects — and Councilor Peter Laviña, whose idea it was that set everything in motion, I would like to send out warm greetings to all of those who attended the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit. Each one of you made MBS1 [...]
Welcome to the
1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit
Davao City, Philippines
It’s really amazing (but not exactly surprising) how much publicity the Mindanao Bloggers Summit has been getting. On the ‘net alone, the traffic generated by bloggers has been terrific! But ‘offline’ as well, there’s been some buzz going around, thanks to our avid supporters.
Twice now I’ve appeared on TV, as I was invited on two [...]

It’s less than a week to go before the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit!! We’re all excited already, and a bit nervous…
One gimmick we’re thinking of doing is to have a number of bloggers introduce their blogs on stage during the break between talks. There will be about 4 spots for this. The organizers [...]
Thanks to the facilitation by ACT for Peace Programme representative, Leah Bugtay, the Pre-Summit workshop went very well yesterday. And thanks as well to our host, Tope Cubos, the workshop participants each enjoyed a satisfying meal at Fwendz Diner.
We were also joined by Philippine Daily Inquirer’s Mindanao bureau chief, Nico Alconaba, who shared his experience [...]
The 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit is just over a week away, folks!!
We need volunteers. Davao-based bloggers who can spare the time and energy, we’d sure appreciate it if you could help us run this event. So far, I’ve gotten the commitment of Winston [Batang Yagit] and Christian [tianx project]. Thanks, guys!
Volunteers will help in the [...]
I got this from my friend, Sarah Matalam:
The BIGGEST JOB FAIR in Mindanao, aptly called “Career Gateways 2007“, is happening soon. The caravan will kick off at the SM Entertainment Center in Davao City on October 17, and at the KCC Convention Hall in General Santos City on October 19.
“Career Gateways” is organized and [...]
What do these three have in common: Swiss Deli, Café Prego, Picobello Ristorante Italiano?
Well, aside from being excellent F&B establishments in Davao, they are all owned by Signor e Signora Venuti and their partners. And, they’re now sponsors of the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit!
Swiss Deli is a restaurant in Lanang, and they make their own [...]
I’d just like to give special mention to one of the sponsors of the Mindanao Bloggers Summit — Davao’s very own Chinese-food chain of restaurants, Dimsum Diner. We’ll enjoy their dimsum and other delectable treats at the Bloggers’ Fellowship Night, which will be held at Casa Habana, from 9:00 PM.
What I appreciate even more is [...]
After the 1st Mindanao Bloggers Summit on 27 October, we are going to have a fellowship night / bloggers’ party at the 2nd floor of Casa Habana, Rizal St., Davao City. The party will start at 9:00 PM. No need to pay entrance or joining fees, but you pay for your own booze or [...]
