Firefox Promo Videos

Posted by Zonk on from the talking-up-the-fox dept.

sebFlyte writes "Last week Mozilla Europe launched some extremely funny promotional videos for Firefox and ZDNet is reporting that they're spreading across the net like wildfire." From the article: "This is just the beginning -- I only posted it on my personal blog and it's already spreading nicely...We wanted to start small as we were concerned that servers wouldn't be able to handle the load."

    We wanted to start small as we were concerned that servers wouldn't be able to handle the load.
    But now we expect our servers to go up in flames as the slashdot horde arrives.

    [SPOILER BELOW]

    The first video, the default one [NOT a good choice, sadly, for a default], has a man screaming his head off in astonishment and subsequent damage to his office building. Quite funny, and shocking, but you should turn the volume WAY DOWN before you go to the site because it's too loud. And since it's the default ... well, you get my drift.

    The second video, The Mobile, involves a young woman's intense fascination with Firefox. Warning: mobiles were harmed in the filming of this short, although one hopes of the edible chocolate kind.

    The third video, The Network, involves a young man who is so amazed his head ... well ... let's just say he's quite astonished, in a kind of jaw dropping way, if a bit more than that.

    Overall, quite amusing, although most Americans coming from a place which doesn't like that brand of humor will probably be complaining about them.
