Just Got Back From A Bloggers' Networking Event


Last night, I attended Digital Filipino Club's Networking Event at Davao City's Grand Regal Hotel. The event, which took place from 6:00 pm to 11:00pm, was sponsored by the Philippine Gaming and Amusement Corporation (PAGCOR).

I arrived at the venue a good thirty minutes late since I had to shop for supplies needed at home. It was my first time to attend a blogging-related event ( I missed MBS1 and Wordcamp) and I say it was really nice to meet fellow bloggers from Davao City. And of course, I wouldn't miss the event for anything (although I don't usually stay out this late) because Lyle's Pinoy R.N. was acknowledged ranking 3rd in Ratified.org's Philippines Top 100 Blogs for 2008.

I would've been home before midnight but Lyle and I had midnight snack at McDonald's. We weren't really hungry but since it is not everyday that I get to stay out late , we decided to hang out for a bit. And by 12:30 a.m., both of us decided to call it a night and headed home. Separately, that is.

By the way, today is my mother's death anniversary and we will be having a family gathering. I can't believe it has been a year since she passed away. Indeed, time flies.

I will be attending another bloggers' event on the 25th. And since it will be hosted in General Santos City which is a good 3-4 hours away from Davao City, I won't have my laptop with me. I won't be able to blog for three whole days starting on the 24th.

I guess this is all for now. I'm beat.

Hello. Thank you so much for joining the event last night. Knowing that Lyle will be around got me excited also in sharing the report.

Hope you'll have a heartwarming day with relatives remembering your mother.

Del,
Hi.. I do not know how blogs are supposed to look like.. anyway, this will just be a comment from somebody who doesn't know anything about this..but first..your blogs are nice.. it takes a lot of patience & creativity...am proud of yoou for having those... comments... ward... very informative but information overload in one page... is it possible to have less articles and just links... it would be nice if you can change the lay-out and make it more attractive... nurse in cyberspace... nice wallpaper (yon ba ang tawag?) it is so you so as your messages... the messages are so sanitized and should I say detached... It would be nice to see some emotions ( dramatic & senti man gud ko by nature) to being out the passion and your creativity... too many other info also.... pacencya na sa comment. PEACE.. over-all your blogs are nice.... ate shie

Shiela said...

Del,
yong ad at the bottom are those necessary??... Also, can you lay-out the info in the beginning of the page to be more attractive like what you have done in the right hand side of the blog for the categories..etc..?

I like the nurse in cyberspace more but if am am into nursing then I will also like the ward....
