Mozilla in Poland: EPIC WIN! ;-)

Posted by: marcoos on: 2.04.2009

For the first time since the late nineties, Microsoft Internet Explorer is no longer the most popular web browser in Poland. Mozilla Firefox scores the highest marketshare percentage ever, 45.3%, leaving MSIE behind by 0,3 percentage points.
All the Gecko-based browsers amount to 45.5% of the marketshare, Opera is at 8% and growing. WebKit-based browsers like [...]

7 Things You May (Or May Not) Know About Me

Posted by: marcoos on: 12.01.2009

Ok, so Staś tagged me and I have to think about seven things people don’t generally know about me. Let’s see…
7. My (probably) first contribution to open source were these renderings of Slackware Linux logo. Yup, I was trying to learn GIMP at the time. :)
6. Now something shameful: my first publically available website (which [...]

Why I haven’t signed the “No to OOXML” petition

Posted by: marcoos on: 10.07.2007

I tried to, I really did! But it doesn’t seem to like my e-mail address:

When will people learn that “+” is a PERFECTLY VALID character in an e-mail address? So, until you fix your form validation scripts, I won’t sign your petition. Sorry.
Update: as this is now fixed, I signed it. :)

MDC PL Sprint #1: Day 1

Posted by: marcoos on: 30.06.2007

Staszek blogs about this in Polish, so I thought it might be nice to share the news with the wider Mozilla community and decided to write this post in English.
Almost 200 edits and about thirty deeply QA’ed articles in the Polish Mozilla Developer Center. These are the results of the first day of what [...]

Abusing File Formats Considered Harmful

Posted by: marcoos on: 9.03.2007

This is how Remora’s PO file looks like when opened in POEdit:

Red usually means that a string is broken and has an error – but in this case it does not, this is the file with the original strings. But since the “original” string is just a key name, POEdit thinks that all the “%s” [...]

Yes, it is really possible if only you’re using a Gecko-based browser like Firefox. If you used the pull-down menu on Google Video, you have already even seen it in action.
So, how did Google do it? Well, I analyzed their code and the answer is simple: they put an iframe between the Flash and the [...]

20% – The Web Is on Fire!

Posted by: marcoos on: 11.05.2006

We did it!
According to ranking.pl, one and a half year after releasing version 1.0, Firefox has a 20% market share in Poland and the total Gecko market share is at 21.2% here. Opera is also doing well at 7.2%.
So, we've reached another milestone but I'm sure this is not where we will stop. There are [...]

Aggregated whole-Poland statistics from Gemius are presented at www.ranking.pl. Gemius has also recently opened its subsidiares in the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Ukraine.
