It's not the source code buddy...
It will be like an about box in which u can see ur names.

I completely agree that it's a marketing strategy but Firefox have been using a good marketing strategy since its inception like Video Ads, T-Shirts etc...

They are using a good strategy and not forcing things to the users (like Microsoft...)

Well, it can be source of inspiration for some people. It's a proof that u like a product and u r promoting it and the product in-turn is promoting u...

not a bad thing... huh...

Thumbs up Re: Chance to get ur name in Firefox 2!!!

Ofcourse we all agree that this is an advertisement gimic by firefox ....But lets accept that it is a good one indeed
Anyone of us would love to see our name written down on such a brilliant software...at the end of the day we all want to get rid of microsoft products so lets support Firefox Cheers

I think many people will try to add their names in firefox.
And I would probably get lost in a huge list of names.

However, I am user of Opera.
So, it can't be source of inspiration for me at least.
