Mindanao Bloggers, we’re at the Front Page of Sunstar Soccsksargen!
Yes, indeed. The Sunstar Soccsksargen Business Weekly in its issue this week, featured the 2nd Mindanao Bloggers Summit as its front cover story!
They even published two of the batch of pictures Bariles emailed to them. Thanks to Managing Editor Nelson Bagaforo and writer Romer S. Sarmiento (who was at the summit) who made this possible.
Below is a picture of the issue which came out not only here in General Santos City but all throughout South Central Mindanao. Please click on it for a larger view so that you can recognize the faces of the bloggers in the pictures at the front page.

“Good stores are needed to balance the image problem that has continuously hounded Mindanao. This is what over a hundred computer geeks in the six-region island hopes to achieve after ending a two-day bloggers’ summit here on October 25. ”
I don’t think we are computer geeks. Bloggers are not always geeks.

Hi Pangitster! I don’t think “geek” was used here negatively. Parang term of endearment, ganun. Di rin naman ako geek, in the truest sense of the word. Ang alam kong geek, si Mikko. Hehehe!
