6 reasons why I want to attend the Ituloy AngSulong party

The Ituloy AngSulong party shall finally happen this Friday. I already signed up and hope to get my ticket soon. These are the things I plan to do during that party.

1. Meet as many of the Ituloy AngSulong participants and exchange business cards.
2. Some Ituloy AngSulong participants have inquired in the past about club membership and hope to be able to give more info while there.
3. Meet the female Ituloy AngSulong participants, take pictures, and post it in W3O.
4. Talk to interested Ituloy AngSulong participants who have PR6 and up websites to have their website homepage be shown in the cover of my upcoming book in exchange for a one-year link showing book cover image (for front cover) or text link (for back cover). They should agree to be featured as one of the examples in the book as well.
5. See if any Ituloy AngSulong participants will be interested to be a speaker or sponsor for iBlog3.
6. Campaign for entries and sponsors in the DigitalFilipino.com Web Awards and Philippine Schools Cyberfair.

Many thanks to everyone who supported our Ituloy AngSulong entry!
