If you’re a blogger based in Cebu, please drop by at the iBrowse Internet Cafe near Cebu Doctor’s University at the North Reclamation Area on Thursday, Feb. 7 at 6:00 p.m. We are organizing a short blogger meet-up there with the indefatigable DigitalFilipino founder Janette Toral.
Janette will be in Cebu for a workshop on Web 2.0 applications and Internet marketing on Feb. 7 and 8. She is also working on a project for bloggers’ involvement in the 2010 elections. We talked about it last year and agreed it would be great to gather Cebu bloggers to talk about blogging and the elections.
During the meetup, she’ll be talking about her project.
I’ve started projects on blogging but have lately gone off-tangent (from blogging, that is), working on a few personal projects that involved more writing and a bit of coding—using advanced customization of WordPress. After several talks of a meetup failed to push through, it will be great to finally meet Cebu-based bloggers. Please feel free to drop by at iBrowse on Thursday. If you’re going, please confirm your attendance with me.
If you don’t know where iBrowse is, here’s a map to the place.

Hello Max and Eugene! I did have two small blogger meet-ups last year, but the bloggers I met then have all moved back to Manila! Yikes!
Sana you guys can do something like what the Mindanao bloggers did. They have a mailing list too (Davao Web Group) and that’s how they started with their blog-related activities/conferences =)
So, magkaka-party na ba in Cebu? =)
Kevin Ray N. Chua // Feb 7, 2008 at 12:54 pm
I hope that this would start the meet-up of Cebu bloggers just like what the Mindanao Bloggers did.
Max, I told Super Bobby Nalzaro to plug about the event and he did just this morning! Kitakits sa event!

Hi Aileen,
Thanks for dropping by. I hope to listen to one of your talks (and meet other bloggers around) when you get back to Cebu.
I hope other Cebu-based bloggers can organize bigger meetups. The Cebu Business Month celebration in June, with its heavy tech theme, would be a good event to hold a blogger meetup.
Kevin,
Thanks. See you later.
