SM Malls limits free WiFi

http://i1.wp.com/www.yugatech.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/SM.jpg?resize=480%2C392 

Yugatech reports that the SM management has already limited free WiFi access. According to the writer of the article, there was a time limit of 1 hour for his WiFi use (check out the article on the link Yugatech).

What could this mean for users? Well, probably more chances of connecting via the mall's WiFi or bad news for those who capitalize the mall's WiFi for their own use (torrents, downloads).

O&B University E-Learning: Android For Beginners

This is not a paid advertisement of Orange and Bronze nor there is no way we are affiliated to them. 


I have recently received an e-mail regarding Orange and Bronze's University E-Learning program since my Yahoo Mail address was previously a part of their mailing list since they were doing programs with ACM for quite some time. Aside from the O&B University where they already provide Java, Android and other Software Development Training programs, they had already started with their e-learning program and first stop is the Android for Beginners.

The Android for Beginners class is taught by O&B's main man Calen Legaspi, you can have a trial of the class before you pay the course fee of P 205 (that's a new career for a price of one Starbucks visit). The Android for Beginners is just the first installment of the O&B University E-Learning.
