User-generated advertising

04.17.06

In what seems to be emerging as a trend (see Chevy Tahoe post), another company is letting users create their own ads for the company’s product. The Firefox Foundation is letting users create and submit their own ads for the Firefox browser. The contest is called Firefox Flicks, has some great prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places, and has resulted in some great (read: hilarious) ads already. Check out the one below for an example, and check out firefoxflicks.com for more.

Uh-huhu weeeeeee!
I watched the video of firefox vs. ninjas- that one was pretty cool. I like the idea that my firefox will save me from attacking ninjas.
I actually do prefer using the firefox browser over internet explorer but it does have some limitations at times, such as when certain applications (ie. my CD-ROM from my physiology book or my school’s e-mail system) don’t support it as well.

Wow that was highly annoying!
