My Picks for the Emerging Influential Blogs of 2009

August 11, 2008 is a memorable date for me. Missing Carlo, my blog dedicated to my one and only special brother, was recognized as one of the Ten Emerging Influential Blogs of 2008. Though the said list was then dominated by group blogs with different niches, I was able to make it on the list. I think blogging about something that is close to your heart makes a difference. I noticed that majority of the bloggers who voted for me are mothers and siblings of special children. Up to this day, I am still receiving some emails and comments from the readers whom in a way, was touched with my lovestory with Carlo.

Now, it’s about time to recognize a bunch of new blogs for the Emerging Influential Blogs of 2009! I would like to congratulate Tita Janette and the Digital Filipino Club as this writing project is already on its 3rd year.

After a few months, he came up with a blog for his little toy named Sago. One of the first blog events Sago attended is the Belo Open House for Bloggers last August 16, 2008 at the Belo Tomas Morato Branch and Packo’s Grill. I am proud to say that I took part in organizing the said event as I used to work in the company as their Web Marketing Specialist.

It was Sago’s first event in a clinic and if I’m not mistaken, Dr. Hayden Kho Jr. is Sago’s first Celebrity Pal. Isn’t he lucky?
