Download Firefox, Feed a Red Panda

Posted by samzenpus on from the have-a-sandwich dept.

KenW writes "Mozilla has launched a new marketing campaign to promote Firefox: adopting red pandas and putting them on live webcams. The company wants to underline the fact that the red panda is the mascot for its open source browser via a new section on its site called Firefox Live. It's clear that Mozilla is trying to think of new ways to promote its browser ahead of the launch of Firefox 4. The company has been struggling recently as Firefox steadily loses share to Google Chrome."

    I mean like back when they told me that each time I masturbate Jesus kills a kitten. Let me tell you I put some serious effort into it, and the stray cat situation around here seemed entirely unaffected ;)
