When man first harnessed fire, no one recorded it. But when Neil Armstrong took that first small step on the moon in July 1969, an entire globe was watching.
When i started Freelancing with Mozilla about 4-5 years ago I never thought that the word 'Mozilla' would be one of the meaning of my life. Its feels amazing to be a Mozillian .It feels even better when I put my efforts into real time work and come up with something fruitful for the development of Mozilla Community , the Mozilla Mission , the Mozilla Projects & the Open Web.
With the presence of Diverse crowd working in Different Web Projects the Discussion had to be Serious & fruitful too.I had named this event as 'Moz Interaction' as it was all about the interaction with the Tech Gigs about the Mozilla Mission , Mozilla Projects like Firefox OS(B2G) , Webmaker & Firefox Desktop. It all started at 6 PM when everyone was tired due to the workload factor.So we started with the snacks & energy Drinks as food was not allowed in the discussion area.
First of all we started with Firefox itself and I came to know that about 70% of the projects in which my collegues were working supports default browser as Firefox.The properties like Support for Flash in Firefox Andriod ,Quick Launch , Native support ,Sync , Do not Track etc were discussed. Now the concluding point was:-
1-If we are so good, Why are we at No 2.
Answers I got :-1 )Advertisement not as much as done by competetors.
2)Not faster than its nearest Competetor.
3) Although Firefox is best as it is highly customisable , but its best use can be done by a techic .
Due to the scarcity of Time , we move on to the next topic B2G . 100/100 to Mozilla. I was super Happy . I told them the concept and got many questions , replied to them & then asked questions and distibuted goodies on the spot.
Then we spent some time playing on the web with the Webmaker.
"Kudos to Mozilla for making the Web so awesome"- One of my collegue said.
After that we had the ice breaking moments at http://hackasaurus.org/en-US/ and we customised the page in the way we wanted & teased each other.
At the end I told them the ways in which they can contribute for Mozilla like Localization , SuMo , NeMo , WoMoz of course etc. and signed up two of them as a volunteer .
I have never liked Blogging & therefore grammatical & other typo errors should be neglected :P.
Pictures would be uploaded soon.
Next Steps :-
Implementation of the gathered data.
Cheers :)
