Pendesfera Days 2010 in Vilanova i la Geltrú

Penedesfera is the blogger community of Gran Penedès and now - with now over 700 registered contributors – the biggest and most active of its kind in the whole of Catalonia. June 11-12, we will organise the annual Pendesfera days, and after a first edition in Gelida (Alt Penedès), and a second one in el Vendrell (Baix Penedès) the time has finally to come to Vilanova i la Geltrú (Garraf), more precisely in the main building (VG 1-2-3) of the Escola Politècnica Superior d’Enginyeria de Vilanova i la Geltrú in Av/ Víctor Balaguer, 1.

Here below you will find a translation of the program. Everybody who wants, is welcome to take part - entry is for free, but you do have to sign up in advance. The panel-discussions will be held primarily in Catalan but also in Spanish. If you plan to take part physically, you are adviced to bring equipment so that you can join the comment flow on Twitter.
