Blogfest 2010....A Synopsis

There are award winning bloggers and emo bloggers. Those that blog about reality and those that blog prose and poetry... and then there is the SOCCSKSARGEN Bloggers.
Mindanao's Funnest - Sox Bloggers

with the men of the hour..Orman and Avel Manansala

The Sox Bloggers are the team behind the recently successful BlogFest SOCCSKSARGEN 2010. Conceived by the minds of GenSan's own celebrity bloggers Mr. Bariles, Avel Manansala and his royal Gandaness Orman Manasala. Under their constant leadership and guidance, the team of bloggers organized the biggest blogging event in Southern Mindanao ever! All in the span of three weeks tops! --something else huh? :) 



 With the charisma of the brothers, they were able to put together a  gathering of the best speakers in the entire local blogosphere. The likes of  Ria Jose, Jong Gonzales, Michelle Solon, Ryann Elumba, Danilo Arao, Jay Jaboneta, Dale Palileo, Aileen Apolo-de Jesus, Bob Soriano, Jun Acharon, Janette Toral and Brendel Balaga all authorities in their fields, some even flying in from Manila to share their time and talent to the 100plus registered attendees. Read more about them at GenSan News Online Mag.
