Robbyboy writes "Mozilla announced an advertisment contest for the Firefox web browser, according to Information Week. They are asking Mozilla Fans to send them samples and the winners will receive prizes. The Contest is hosted at the Spread Firefox site" From the article: "Earlier this month, Mozilla launched the first phase of its Firefox Flicks campaign, which was a testimonial Web site in which fans could sing the browser's praise in short videos. To date, several dozen of the amateur clips, which vary widely in quality and have been submitted from more than 20 countries, have been posted on the site."

Firefox strikes back... by Ruff_ilb · 2005-12-23 16:30 · Score: 4, Interesting

I find this a much better idea than the opera-user-photo concept. I hope they release all the best submissions. They could be quite amusing.

You think out of the box i.e. create a branding kit so that ISP's can readily rebrand firefox to be an ISP branded web browser (with a range of bookmarks and extensions etc. than have an affiliation with the ISP). Give larger commercial organisations an incentive to distribute and promote firefox. The ISP's can then use firefox and thunderbird to compete against MSN and AOL.
