A day to be spend valid with all the contributors and volunteers for Mozilla and we got a lot learnt over there Orange cafe,Erode. A nice community place with internet Access and learn how and what are the ways we can contribute to mozilla

It all started with FOSS (free and open source software) to which all the source code and every resource is available online and users can get benefit from those community and forums to enhance their level of learning and also their standards do improve by telling this to others

Mozilla comes into play where the community want to make the internet a better place to be utilized for the people. All the

technologies should be used by the people for their own way and it wants to make the"WEB CONSUMERS TO WEB MAKERS"

Products and projects of Mozilla are discussed deeply where some products like Light beam and other projects that are undertaken by Mozilla and are working currently done with mozilla and we had a eye opener about how to contribute to Mozilla and ways to contribute to Mozilla




January meet up:
As the volunteer meeting was about to end January meetup was discussed and make sure each and every person is assigned a job to do well and to make the meet up next month a grand success and strength to be expected for the next meeting and what are all the work to be done with that date of meeting was also discussed



As am the technical lead for the club here I took responsibility in attending the meeting in spite of my semester exams to make sure this message reaches all of my club members effectively and efficiently delivered to them and they know how to move from the base that has been provided to them and members of my club too had some questions regarding how much it will be useful for their career so for that it was clearly explained by mentor -GAUTHAM RAJ


As of now it is interesting to be part of Mozilla and love to contribute to Mozilla as much as I can in my surroundings and to volunteers who are ready to contribute

Hello all,

Now a days,developing a web application is made so simple.Thanks to the open source tools available for it.In my future articles,we will see about the open source tools in detail.The basic requirement for many of the open source tools is WAMP Server.In this article,we will see how to install the wamp in our system.

 What is WAMP?

WAMP is an acronym formed from the initials of the operating system Microsoft Windows  Apache, MySQL and one of PHP, Perl or Python.

Step 1:

Click here to download WAMP server.Remember WAMP will work only in Windows running machine.Download the WAMP as per your OS configuration(32 or 64 bit).

Step 2:

Click the EXE downloaded to install the wamp in your machine.Click the wamp icon to start running your wamp server..The W icon on the taskbar must be green in color else WAMP server will not work properly.The same is shown in the following picture:

Step 3:

To check the correctness of your installed wamp.Click on the W icon and choose local host on the evolved menu.The snapshot will give you a clear idea:

Step 4:

The resulting window should give some info about the current versions of the WAMP installed.(there should not be any error message).
