This is unusual for me to jump into my blog and write about what I’ve just received. But I figured why shouldn’t it happen? It’s my personal blog, right? It’s supposed to be a journal of all the important, fun, and memorable things (and thoughts) that take place in my life, right? So here we go.
I just received two copies of t-shirts sent by Mozilla from all the way to the United States. Mozilla had sent its volunteers an email asking to sign up if they wanted these cute MozLove t-shirts. Mozilla gave everyone two pieces of t-shirts with the other one intended to be shared with someone else. The ordering took place some months ago and I had already forgotten that I should be expecting a couple of t-shirts.
In the past week, other Mozillians from Mozilla Bangladesh community started uploading photos of their t-shirts and I suddenly remembered I would be getting them, too. And that happened today.
The t-shirts look incredibly nice with a proud display on the front-end ( 😉 ) that we all love Mozilla. Two little heart-shaped cards read “It’s never been more important to show the world what Mozilla means to us all,” and it’s true. Mozilla found itself in a tough spot after it appointed JavaScript creator Brendan Eich as its CEO.
Happily, that tough spot is over. And Mozilla is back on its mission. If you haven’t already, you should take a look at the Mozilla mission on mozilla.org/mission. Who knows, perhaps you’ll like what the organization — backed by a large community of passionate people — is doing for the betterment of the Web!
I am so disappointed Mozilla closed the Gear Store (firefox / mozilla branded shirts, etc). Hopefully it will be up in December. I think it’s been down for nearly 2 years. It’s definitely been a while.

Was there one? I haven’t been with Mozilla for 2 years that’s probably why I never really saw it. These days Mozillians get their t-shirts and other stuff from many Mozilla/Firefox events hosted locally. I guess that’s why they closed the store. To encourage people to get involved with activities so that they win these items free. 🙂

It was Mozilla’ official online store where the purchases actually gave some profit to Mozilla.
