Cebu Business I.T. Incubator

Starting a Tech Business with Cebu Business Incubator in I.T.

It has been more than six months when I decided to go back in Cebu City after a short hiatus in my hometown in Zamboanga (although still did some home-based work).  Working from home is okay but I find it difficult in terms of time management; I tend to procrastinate.

I made a very risky decision when I decided to move back to Cebu City and start a business with the help of Cebu Business Incubator in I.T. (CeBuinIT)Cebu InIT is a Technology Business Incubator made possible by UP Cebu College and Department of Science and Technology (DOST). Ariba Tech Solutions, my small business,  is an I.T. solution provider focusing on web and mobile solutions for small to midsize businesses. Ariba Tech Solutions is categorized as a locator in the facility which is strategically located in University of the Philippines – Cebu, Gorordo Avenue, Lahug, Cebu City. It is near Ayala Center and Cebu I.T. Park.

With Cebu InIT, I was able to get a cheaper facility – a small room office. They also offer cubicle type units for those who intend to jumpstart with their tech business ideas. They also offer technical training and seminars. You can check their website for more information about the facilities and services they offer.

How to Disable Google+ Instant Photo Uploads

I recently updated my Android phone’s software and then I noticed that all my recent photos taken using my phone was instantly uploaded to my Google+ account. It was kinda shocking because I was not prompted of the option to have it automatically uploaded or was it my fault not checking the settings. It’s scary for those who takes some random photos which is quite sensitive or private (well, although it will be on your private album). At any rate, still scary.

Anyway, to disable this Instant Upload feature, here’s a video on how to do it:

If you have Google+ App installed on your Android phone, please check the settings to make sure you’re safe.
