They say you are what you tweet, you are what you post on Facebook and Instagram, and you are what you blog about. And other says social media is a
unicorn, but maybe it’s just a
horse?
Be informed, join the social revolution, and meet the social revolutionists as they share their strategies on how to win it in the blogoshere and online community on the 2nd Laguna Blogging Summit happening on November 14 - 15, 2013 at the Cultural Center of Laguna, Sta. Cruz, Laguna.
Hosted by Rod Magaru and Florencio Jusay Jr., the second year of the Laguna Blogging Summit (LaBS) will not only promote the tourism of Laguna and talk about Social Media and Digital Marketing, but most importantly promote more awareness for a responsible online and social media community by experts and notable speakers who are successful in their field and advocating information.
Of last year's huge number of attendees, more participants are expected this year from students, professors, bloggers, social media influencers to media practitioners, young professionals and marketing executives to learn more about Digital Marketing, Social Media, and Branding.
"
This year, we added a new set of speakers like Carlos Celdran who is the new Manila Chief of Tourism, we are expecting that he will share his knowledge, expertise and experience of the effectiveness of Social Media in Tourism and him being the man who won a lot of awards because of his advocacy.", Lead Organizer Grace Nicolas said.
This year's notable speakers also supporting the
Laguna Blogging Summit are
Digital Marketing expert Janette Toral,

COMELEC Communications Director James Jimenez,
