Firefox in Brazil: next steps [blogmag.net]

Firefox in Brazil: next steps

A few weeks ago I summarized some of the activities of Mozilla in Brazil so far and promised an outline of the next steps. Here they are:

Introducing the Mozilla Brazil blog

Check out the Mozilla in Brasil blog to see the latest news about Mozilla and Firefox in Brazil, in Portuguese! We’re hoping to have a mix of updates on current activities in Brazil, release announcements, and guest posts from the community. We’re very excited to launch this new blog!

Announcing the LAN House project

LAN Houses are the cybercafes of Brazil, used by 49% of Internet users. Mozilla is suporting a new initiative to understand better LAN Houses and see what Mozilla can do to help. We’re creating a forum for LAN house owners to bring up the issues they are facing, and communicate with each other. We’re also organizing a meeting with LAN house owners in Rio in December. Let us know if you’d like to participate!

Firefox in Brazil survey

Brazil was part of the pilot for the Firefox in your country survey. We’re still analyzing the 1,510 responses, but here are some highlights:

87% of respondents use Firefox as their primary browser
91% are using Firefox 3
96% have recommended Firefox
43% say a recommendation from a friend is the biggest factor in getting people to try Firefox
41% say that not knowing about Firefox is the biggest inhibitor to getting people to use Firefox
92% of respondent have installed an add-on
Tabbed browsing is seen as the most compelling feature for people the respondents know
Firefox is primarily used at home

Many thanks to everyone who took the time to respond and spread the word about the survey! We will be posting more details shortly.

More online fun

Stay tuned for details on an upcoming online contest… all we can say is that it will involve video.

As always, we will also continue focusing on events, PR, campus reps, and most of all supporting the community in Brazil in any way we can. If you have projects you’d like help with, let us know!

This is awesome that Firefox is in Brazil! Great job - I think you should keep this up and move to other less fortunate countries.

With FF3.6 comming out now, IE and Chrome are going to be even futher behind. Note that though chrome is also very fast, but I just cant convince myself to let the big G gather even more info about me...

How do I prevent Firefox from opening a site that has a virus? Every few minutes Firefox tries to open a site. Because I just got a Trojan off my computer. So the link to the virus does not work anymore but Firefox keeps trying to open it. It says it cannot display this webpage. So how do I stop this?

Well these statistics about Firefox in Brazil are good as 87% of the people using Firefox. I love to use Firefox because of many reasons like its Add-On are great and provide great user experience. The Tab facility in Firefox is one of the best feature and other internet browsers are following the same. Lets see how it will be competing with Google Chrome. Thanks

Firefox has increasing user base in Brazil, as it is clear from the Survey. Nearly 90% people were using Firefox as their internet browser and even 94% people recommended Firefox. Its one of the best internet browser because of Tab facility and add on. Its security features are great. Thanks

Beginner triathlon training should focus on learning how these three separate events interact with one another, and how this affects your body.

A triathlon is divided into three components: swimming, cycling and running. This can be daunting for novices and those trying a triathlon for the first time. Novice triathlon training should focus on learning how mixing these three separate sports have an effect on your body.
