Talks
Firefox OS: the web is the platform
This talk presents the new Mozilla operating system, Firefox OS, and all Mozilla contributions to the Open Web that make it happen: new Web APIs, a lot of new possibilities for mobile app development, Mozilla Marketplace, a new way of publishing mobile web apps and new developer tools for building web apps.
Webmaker: make something amazing with the Web!
Web is becoming the second language of the world, and a vital ability for the 21th century. It's crucial that we teach people these abilities that they need to understand, model and participate actively on this new world, instead of just consuming passively on the web. On this talk, we're going to present tools and materials to teach the web, the web literacy standard, who's behind all this, and how we're creating a community of webmakers in Brazil and how you can be part of this.
Mozilla Brasil: Come and join us!
Mozilla, a non-profit, has the great mission of keeping the web in our hands. Several people around the world contribute as volunteers to this mission, in all areas of knowledge. In Brazil, we have our vey own community, Mozilla Brasil, which is without any doubt the most happy and fun community across all Mozilla local communities around the world.
