All roads will lead to Cebu this November 26, 2011 as bloggers (newbies and the veterans), student leaders, business people and students converge at SM City Cebu Trade Hall for the Visayas Blogging Summit 2011.



First hosted by the Iloilo Bloggers, it would Cebu's turn this year with Cebu Bloggers Society, Inc. in the helm of organizing the event in its second run. The event will be starting around 7:30 AM for the registration and is estimated to end our 5:00 PM.

CBSi is one of the Philippine’s esteemed and premier blogging organization registered in Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The organization has been instrumental in sharing the world with information about Cebu’s Lifestyle, Culture, News and Events. CBSi is also instrumental in staging creative approaches in integrating social media, specifically blogging, into a potent tool for social change by providing tangible results to the community.

This year's event will have different approaches compared to last year. Being one of the attendees of the 1st VBS, I was able to share to my Board of Trustees on what needs to stay, what needs to be improved and what needs to go. Topics that would be tackled on this event would be divided into 4 segments namely: Personal Bloggging, Professional Blogging, Social Media Marketing for Business and Social Media Responsibility. There will also be panel discussion and Q&As from the participants.

With the theme "Blogging and Beyond", CBSi wants to inculcate among bloggers that there should be more than blogging about oneself and instead, use the skill and influence to make a positive change in the society. Honestly, I'm not on that level yet and so is most of us bloggers but with that clarion call, this would let the society know that we bloggers can make good things too in our respective community and in our country as a whole.

Being there at the event, you will not go home without anything to bring! You will even have free lunch and a lot of freebies plus the learnings that would carry along after the summit!

I encourage you to register NOW at http://vbs2011.cebubloggers.com/participants.

See you mga SUMMITEROS and SUMMITERAS! :D
