August 14th, 2006 All "signs" point to Firefox It seems there may be intelligent life out there after all. Or maybe the Oregon State Linux Users Group is just at it again.
August 15th, 2006 at 4:16 am FireFox : Alien Technology Or maybe the Oregon State Linux Users Group is just at it again. To celebrate 50 million downloads, they took back the sidewalk with an enormous painting on their campus quad. At 100 million, they took back the sky with a huge Firefox weather ba...
August 15th, 2006 at 4:21 am I wonder what the corresponding M Night Shayamalan movie would be like? Genial but misunderstood alien foxes trying to give you better browser capabilities.
August 15th, 2006 at 5:03 am To those who are saying that they hope the farmer sues them for what they did, do you not think that if they spent two days doing it that they probably compensated and got permission from the field owner first? If they like pulling publicity stunts to celebrate the widespread use of their intellectual property, let them do it! Hell, if I created something that was widely critically acclaimed and used by millions of people, I'd do the same thing and so would you! And I DARE you to say you wouldn't revel in the fact that you'd created something that a huge amount of people use on a daily basis, because if you said that you didn't you'd be an out and out liar.
All those that are negative, well, small minded petty jealousy is to be expected in this world, so ignore them! Firefox has definitely made a huge impact on both user experience, but more importantly, web application development accross platforms - amazing stuff.
August 15th, 2006 at 6:05 am brilliant work folks, excellent job. mind you hiring the helicopter and shooting the shot must of been tough, worth it though, all the best and keep it up.
August 15th, 2006 at 8:53 am To all the killjoys posting here... This is defiantly very cool in my book and hey if they had fun doing it then more power to them!
And if you Scatterblak are taking it side is because you have no clue about all the effort and hacks that the web developers and designers have to put on web pages to fix IE crapiness so people like you (who are stupid enough to keep using it) can browse the web. You are obiously a mail/google/mtv user, so please shut up.
August 15th, 2006 at 10:24 am Get back to work Shawn ps: firefox rocks pps: it's just a browser guys ppps: stop reading and get back to work shawn 50.
August 15th, 2006 at 11:03 am Wow, Ive never seen more whinning in my life. And I agree with the majority, if these people wanted to take some time to do this, more power to them, theres nothing wrong with it. And drop the starving people act, you dont really give a sh*t so dont blame others for not. The rest of you people causeing fuss, grow up, its just some college kids having fun, and if you say you dont do silly things, then your a waste of my air, have fun get a life make freinds.
August 15th, 2006 at 2:57 pm What was accomplished in less than 24 hours is truly remarkable. It was beautiful warm weather, full moon, great oat field, and the most enjoyable group of people to come together. The comradarie of these hard workers is what makes this project so special. The landowner and farmer were thrilled to let Mozilla use the field.
August 15th, 2006 at 3:31 pm To all you naysayers: You should appreciate how this has affected popular culture. You'll never get your product emblazoned in a field of wheat. After all, a browser what you had to use to post your idiotic series of grunts and whistles. A browser is probably what you spend the majority of your computer experience interacting with. It's why Steve Jobs can stand on stage in front of a giant white fruit to the applause of thousands.
August 15th, 2006 at 9:36 pm I drove out there a few hours ago and I couldn't find a decent spot to view it... I ended up on cherry blossom ln' and it was the best place I found.
the farmers would probably get paid more for the crop circle than they would have by the companies that buy the wheat. famers get screwed over by the big companies and well all know it.
