Last week when a few friends from school talked about meeting up at my house so we could learn how to Hack, Remix and Code the web using Some cool Mozilla Webmaker tools - None were prepared for how fun and educative the Kitchen table event would be.

It sure was great to see fellow Tech Savvy friends who have been neck-deep into Dismantling, assembling and PC maintenance get so excited at their first Webpage Remix.

Mozilla Webmaker hopes to create a generation of webmakers with its Summer Code party Campaign which is scheduled to kick off on the 23rd of June to September 22nd 2012.
The Ultimate goal is to help millions of people move from using the web to making the web.
