Today, November 8th 2010, GenSan News Online Mag is officially 3 years old!!!

In the blogosphere, this is known as the blog’s THIRD BLOGOVERSARY!

WHEW!!  Who would have thought we would reach this far, amass more than a million page views, gather a few awards along the way and have time to lead an active group of bloggers?

Surely someone who puts out a first post like the crude and unimaginative one about banana cue in the city oval below would have no inkling that he would move on to be the most favored chronicler of events, happenings and developments in General Santos City!

Crude as it may look, this blog post paved the way for Bariles to cough out 827 posts in less than 3 years, and in the process, receive awards from Digital Filipino and the Philippine Blog Awards, and be included in features on television and gather link juice from dozens of other blogs.

To commemorate all these, we are running a simple 3rd BLOGOVERSARY RAFFLE.

If you are already a subscriber, just comment or leave a message or greeting on this blog post and immediately you will be eligible to win a BRAND NEW iPod Shuffle courtesy of a friend from Commerce Collective.  This is limited to one entry per person.

Commerce Collective is a web presence management company that helps small to medium-sized businesses with their online presence, particularly in the areas of e-commerce management, social media strategy management, search engine optimization and marketing, and online reputation management.

The Raffle will be done through the site random.org on Tuesday, November 16 at 11pm.
We will be adding more prizes from more friends and supporters.  Watch out for them.

Good luck to all of you!   And again, thank you for 3 wonderful years of visiting GenSan News Online Mag!  Do not forget to SUBSCRIBE first!

You rock!!
