SIGHTINGS AROUND THE WEB: Firefox Flicks

This site features 30-second ads for the Firefox browser. As of this writing, there are a total of 202 videos on the site. (And you were wondering what to do during your lunch break.) Mozilla created the site for users to make the ads to help increase awareness of Firefox among its target audience. (The primary target audience for the Firefox advertising campaign are moderately experienced Web users, who are comfortable with using the Web but are not necessarily power users.) You can even submit your own ads!
