Mozilla Philippines, IECEP QC Chapter and St. Paul Tuguegarao on Vigattin of Radyo Inquirer

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Last Saturday's episode of Vigattin rdaio at Radyo Inquirer DZIQ 90 AM was composed of three sets of guests, two personally in the studio and one on phone patch all the way from Tuguegarao.

We had Bob Reyes from Mozilla Philippines who talked about their initiatives toward a more connected experience with the development of connected devices. It's like the everyday appliances and gadgets conspiring with one another to keep us on the loop and well-informed via devices that can sense our needs and communicate with us when necessary.

People usually think of the Firefox browser when you mention Mozilla since it was the more popular competitor of the other browsers back then. Bob says they are different for being non-profit and prioritizing security and confidentiality above anything else.

Meanwhile, MJ Guttierez from the Institute of Electronics Engineers of the Philippines (IECEP) -QC Chapter, talked about the future projects of their school organization including their social responsibility programs, their career development program, leadership training seminars and many more. MJ is keen on joining the mother IECEP organization which caters to the ECE professionals already.
