Firefox Ad Ran In Today's NY Times


My name is right above the o in Firefox
So many people came out in support of the full page Firefox ad in the New York Times that they couldn't fit all of our names on one page. So today, the Spread Firefox team ran a mammoth 2 pager (pdf) featuring all of our names, a giant Firefox logo, and user testimonials.

Very cool. The press around the ad is worth it alone but the positive impression this will make on CIO's, business leaders, and "Joe user" when they see this ad is immeasurable. I'm proud to have been a part of this, and I've got the ad on my wall at work with my name highlighted. It's at once the coolest and geekiest thing I've ever had on my walls, and that's coming from a guy who's had anime murals and wall scrolls all over his room.

If by some chance you're still using Internet Explorer - Firefox 1.0 is here. It's time to see what you've been missing!
