žomg it’s a small community!
There is an old saying that we live in a small world. It turns out that this is true for the Mozilla community as well — and definitely in that same good way!
Matjaž Horvat is a perfect example: I’ve seen the guy at various Mozilla events such as MozCamp Barcelona, MozCamp Prague, and the Mozilla [...]
I have four words for you
Meeting fellow Mozillians at events like MozCamp is very much like meeting old friends: it’s familiar, energizing, and fun. MozCamp 2009 in Prague was no exception and left me with a lot of extra enthusiasm about being part of Mozilla.
This event was extra special from a SUMO point of view, because for the [...]
Several people use Firefox!
Things like this makes me smile.
Marc Laporte coming to town
As many people already know, SUMO as a support web platform is built around open source software.

A day to remember
Today is a special day. Some people will remember it as the day when Firefox 3.5 was released. I call it the day the web was upgraded. Stay tuned for announcements on mozilla.com soon!
Microsoft – Making it easier

We’ve made the decision to continue to use Word for creating e-mail messages because we believe it’s the best e-mail authoring [...]
I fell in love with Geneva
It’s Midsummer Eve in Sweden and I finally got some time to reflect on the fantastic weekend I had in Geneva together with other members of the Mozilla community. I was there to lead a discussion about SUMO and community support, with a focus on sharing experiences between the five local communities represented: Denmark, France, [...]
