Hi everyone, I am very excited to be the first Macedonian author here on the Mozilla Europe Blog. I am also very happy to announce that the Republic of Macedonia now has it's very own Mozilla Promotion Team named Mozilla Macedonia! Because the so called "Internet Boom" just recently took over the Republic of Macedonia, things in the IT sphere are just starting up. So a few enthusiasts got the idea to create a Mozilla promotion team here. From the black-board, the idea grew into reality, forming Mozilla Macedonia in 2 cities around the Republic of Macedonia: Skopje (capital) & Kumanovo].

Although the Republic of Macedonia is young as an IT country, more than 58% of it's internet users use Firefox! As our first course of action, we will hold a Firefox promotion in our 3 cities on the 5th of September. Handing out Firefox 3.5 CD's (Macedonian & Albanian install, Macedonian & Albanian Menus, Firefox stickers, badges and neck-straps are part of the plan). Media attention will be big, so that's a big plus!

We welcome you all to attend in the city nearest you on the 5th of September, 17:00 o'clock on the city square. See you there and have a Mozilla-rific day!

UPDATE: The Bitola promotion has been postponed for sometime later this year.
