Furthermore, if you’re planning to attend the 2008 Philippine Blog Awards Night on September 21. Then please register here. Due to venue limitations, the organizers currently have only 200 slots for bloggers so you better sign up now.
If you can’t attend physically, then don’t worry because there will be live streaming of the event courtesy of SmartBro. Just wait for further announcements at the PBA website regarding this.
Also, the deadline for the Level Up! and Nokia Sponsor Awards have been extended to the 19th of September. So you still have time nominate your favorite blog about gaming or make that video about mobile technology. I’d like to wish 100% Batangueño good luck, he has an entry for the Nokia Kaleidoscope of Connections award.
Lastly, a Nokia N82 is up for grabs for those who have voted their favorite for the Bloggers’ Choice Awards. Please refer to my previous post here to read the mechanics on how you can vote. (By the way, I’m also nominated for this award )
That’s it for now. Stay tuned for more updates in this post.
