GBG Mandaue Supports Software Freedom Day Cebu #SFDCebu


On September 20, 2014, we will celebrate Software Freedom Day in Cebu!
When: September 20, 2014 (Saturday)| 1:30 - 5:30 PM 
Where: The TIDE Cebu, 7th Floor, Skyrise 1, Cebu IT Park, Lahug, Cebu City 
Registration Form: http://goo.gl/x1hjDl

Why we celebrate Software Freedom Day?


In GBG, we our proud to have free software tools from Google such as:

Google Drive
GMail
Google Analytics
Google Calendar
Google Maps
Blogger
and more...


Although not all of these tools are what we say 'totally free' especially if you exceed certain storage or want to avail of premium features, initially using them is free so as to appreciate their UI's and user-friendliness. And we know, as business people, we want to make sure that what we get should have the right features before we spend something for it.

In Software Freedom Day, we also appreciate other tools other than Google that have been created for free.

The liberation in the development of the free software programs has delineated the opportunity to create more available digital tools for more people to use on the Internet.

And with that, due to the the liberation of software usage for more and more people, the Internet has become more wider in size, digitally.


 Join Software Freedom Day Cebu 2014


What is Software Freedom Day?

"Software Freedom Day is an event spearheaded by Software Freedom International. It is held yearly on different parts around the world. And the reason why they do it is to celebrate the creation of Free Software and to make everyone more aware of it, how they can use it and what are the benefits of using it."
