I mentioned in my post entitled “I’m back” that I will be giving a lecture on blogging this December. It went along as scheduled. I was given 45 minutes to speak about the topic “Blogging as a business option” this morning December 9, 2009 10 a.m. at the Southwestern University, Cebu City, AVR-3 Main building.
I was happy to be invited to lecture on the subject considering also that I am an alumnus of Southwestern University; I did not hesitate to respond positively to the invitation. Too bad I didn’t bring along somebody with me to take pictures of the event. ( I noticed somebody snapping pictures of the event, so if somebody could please email me the picture J) I wish that I have brought an audio recorder in order fulfillment that I could share what I discussed. Anyway I will be featuring the power point presentation instead at the end of the post.
Because of the shortness of time given I only gave an “Introduction” to the subject of blogging specifically on blogging as a business option. The lecture was divided into 4 parts. First I gave an introduction to blogging, secondly I talked about how bloggers make money. The third subject was on how traditional business can utilize blogging to their advantage. On the last part of the lecture I gave a very quick overview on setting up a blog. I only gave an introductory lecture because of the allotted time. Besides, to talk in depth about blogging will probably require a 2 or 3 day lecture.
The audience was mainly composed of students from college of computer sciences and the college of Engineering of Southwestern University. Although the audience was shy in asking questions, I am sure the introductory lecture fueled interest on the subject considering that there are only a few active bloggers in the country and that “blogging” is not an official subject in the college of computer studies or in any college for that matter. (Correct me if I am wrong on this)
I had a brief chitchat with one of the faculty members of Southwestern University college of Computer Science and I was asked to speak on the subject further one of these days. I look forward to that invitation. I’ve always considered myself as a “blogging” evangelist and I am happy to respond to invitations to speak about the subject for as long as my schedule allows me.
Just tonight I got an email from a student of Southwestern University thanking me for the lecture. Anyway if any of you whether you have attended the lecture or not has any questions about blogging I will be more than glad to answer them.
