Evening of September 18 — Went out for a dinner with Mozilla Campus Reps from the area. The dinner was initiated by Gen of the Mozilla Foundation who was coming over to Manila with Seth for their pitch in WordCamp Philippines the next day.
Some of the topics that were discussed during dinner was :
- Traffic in Metro Manila
- State of Firefox growth in the Philippines and what is driving it
- Will a localized (we read it as: translated) version of Firefox gain traction?
- Incoming improvements to the browser
- What we can do to jump start a Mozilla community in the Philippines
- How Gen lives his life in Japan as a “big guy” (as Ren Ren put it)
- How Pacquio has risen to celebrity icon status in the US
