Good news to newbie bloggers out there! Our friends from UP College of Law and Digital Filipino will once again organize the biggest Philippine Blogging Summit if the year!

Now on it’s sixth year, iBlog6 is set to take place on April 16 and 17 at the UP Malcolm Theatre, UP College of Law, UP Diliman, Quezon City. I started attending the blogging summit in 2007 and through this educational event, I met a lot of bloggers who eventually became my friends. If you want to meet your favorite blogger or learn more about blogging, I will push you to register and attend. Besides, the REGISTRATION IS FREE!

I was assigned to speak on Blogging 101 together with AJ Matela in last year’s summit. The line-up for this year is also interesting. The first day is targets those bloggers who would like to know more about the business side of it, while the second day tackles the general aspects of blogging.
