First I thought it was just a bunch of useless and witty fan pages at Facebook. But the power of digital media and social networks is apparent when these so-called, “nonsensical” pages appeared at my news feed. Examples such as “Nung Bata ako Nung bata ako kumain ako ng nectar ng santan sa garden ) and Nung bata ako, hinihipan ko yung BALA ng FAMILY COMPUTER para GUMANA are my current favorites. These pages have more than 80,000 fans!

They even have more fans than official pages posted by companies and products… the very same companies that spend millions of marketing money on them. To think that zero advertising budget was used in these “Nung Bata Ako” pages. Great springboard for marketing, if you ask me.

Brilliant! The list of some of the interesting “Nung Bata Ako” fan pages after the jump.
