About Brownout Ba?
Real-time power interruption alerts for Meralco customers via Facebook Messenger

Developer
John Michael Manlangit
I'm a Filipino developer, I built this to help our kababayan stay informed about scheduled power interruptions in their area. This bot is a personal project I built and maintain in my free time.
