I was one of the attendees in the Digital Influencers Marketing Summit held in SM Cebu last November 24, 2012. It was one great and meaningful event and was participated by big industry players in the world wide web. The whole event took place the whole day. With 7 hours of information bombarding, I was able to capture 11 important things that really impressed on me.

One of the least played stringed instruments in the Philippines is the harp. Finding a harpist is like finding a pearl in the ocean. And, I was able to find that kind of pearl a couple of days back. I was at  Parkmall in Cebu looking for something to buy. As I was walking down the center aisle of the place, I heard a sweet smooth sound coming from a harp. I never thought twice to capture every melody. Sorry about the audio. It was captured using a cellphone. :) As soon as the harpist ended his set, I approached him and asked for his name. He is Ronnie Custa ñ os. He is not a schooled musician and learned every note from his father. He has been playing the instrument for over 18 years. I was very glad to have met with such brilliant talent. "Mao ra gyud ni nga stringed instrument ang imong makita sa Bible" - Ronnie Custa ñ os -
