Summary:

Firefox in 2013 will take major steps towards deeper integration with more services. The Social API and the upcoming Firefox Account work are both key components in a larger move to making Firefox more than just a frame to view websites, but an integral part of making users' online lives easier. We need your help to make this amazing for the Asian market!

This session will cover:

  • What we're already planning
  • How individuals can help us go faster on this plan
    • Development
    • Evangelism
    • Partnering
  • Discussion about what Asian users need, especially in mobile contexts, and how we can evolve the current plan to get the best experience for those users.

How your session furthers the MozCamp Goals:

  • Create community-based plans to increase usage in Asia, with particular focus on India, China, Indonesia, and the Philippines and plan to retain usage in Japan.
  • Enable the community to be drivers of the GA plans for Firefox for Android by educating on current GTM activities and having them create community-based action plans to augment usage in Japan, South Korea, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan.

Expected Outcome or Deliverable:

  • Improved product requirements to satisfy the Asian market
  • Established working relationship between the Asian community and the Services team, which has historically been far more Europe-aware.
  • Start to user and developer evangelism around ways to build against new APIs.

Desired Audience Type or Skill-set:

Developers (app, Web, service), user advocates, UX people, users.

Equipment Needs (Video projector already included):

None.
