Posted on June 1, 2010 by Gen Kanai| Comments Off

My colleague, Shyam Mani, and I will be at Echelon 2010 this week, which looks to be one of the most exciting Internet events in Asia this year. Over 750 participants from all across Asia, it’s quite an accomplishment and congratulations to the e27 organizers.

I’m speaking about Addons on Tuesday morning, and will be around for the rest of the event gathering feedback from participants and sharing the news about what’s going on at Mozilla with mobile, Firefox 4, etc.

Interviewed at This Week In Asia

Posted on May 26, 2010 by Gen Kanai| Comments Off

Bernard Leong and Daniel Cerventus of This Week in Asia interviewed me last week in advance of the Echelon 2010 conference in Singapore on June 1-2.  I will be speaking at Echelon about browser customizations and how they can help startups retain users and grow usage of your website/ webservice.

If you’re going to Echelon, I look forward to seeing you.

This Week in Asia Episode 39: Gen Kanai from Mozilla

I made one error in the interview that I need to clarify.

I said that the Firefox 4 alphas are not yet available. That is incorrect. They are available today as Mozilla Developer Preview (Gecko 1.9.3 alpha).

I got confused between the Firefox for Android builds, which were pre-alpha at the time of the interview but is now available as a nightly build for testing.
