I officially vote for Cebu Bloggers Society in 2009 Philippine Blog Awards.

Cebu Bloggers Society was founded on the 14th of February, 2008 by Mark Monta. The idea of organizing bloggers in Cebu came to him after an online conference with Jerry Gervacio and Kevin Ray Chua. On that very day, he created a Yahoo group called Cebu Bloggers Society. A few months after that, more and more bloggers joined the group.

On August 18, 2008, the pioneering members of the group met Aileen Apolo, the country’s Google marketing consultant. She personally met the group to hand Kevin Ray Chua’s plaque of recognition for winning in the Top Ten Emerging Influential Blogs in the country.

On October 22, 2008, the very first Digital Filipino Club and Bloggers Conference in Cebu was held at PAGCOR in Waterfront Hotel. This was headed by Janette Toral, the president of the club. It was in that event that the group was publicly recognized. During that day also, the new Cebu Bloggers Society website was launched.

And now, as VP for Cebu Bloggers Society, I could say that we are not just building an organization but we are creating a family as well.
