First Pinoy-made Firefox OS App Lands at the Firefox Marketplace: RaffleHat

Robert "Bob" Reyes

How many times had we witnessed that before the actual raffle starts (towards the homestretch of an event), the host or organizer scrambles to think of a way to … do the raffle. You will see organizers running back-and-forth looking for the list of all attendees, while… Read the rest
