It's been a little less than a week since we've had the Testimonial viewer online and we've got lots of great user testimonials coming in.
This week, the Spread Firefox team looked through all of the entries and have selected five to feature as "weekly winners." The first place entry will receive a coupon from our sponsor Amazon.com for $50 as well as his choice of Firefox t-shirts from the Mozilla Store. The second, third, and fourth place weekly winners will receive their choice of Firefox t-shirts. The 5th place winner, selected by Marcia Knous of Spread Firefox and the Mozilla Store, will get a limited edition, one of a kind, Firefox baseball cap.
Without further adieu, here are the five weekly winners:
First Place goes to Dr. Nikitah Imani of Virginia, USA with a very enthusiastic Firefox recommendation. Dr. Nikitah, thanks for putting out the word about our F.R.E.E. web browser!
Second Place goes to Matthew Evans in Washington, USA. Matthew makes the case for using Firefox at work. We think that's a great idea!
Third Place was Ruthie, from New Zealand. Kia ora! Ruthie, from New Zealand thinks Firefox is cool because it's got themes! (Ruthie, if you're reading this, please have your parents send us an email so we can send you your prize.)
Fourth Place comes from Sean in Utah, USA. Sean loves Firefox's features enough to rap about them.
Fifth Place goes to Mark, in Northern California. Mark carries his Firefox around on a U3 Smartdrive which we think is very cool.
Don't miss your chance at some great prizes, head over to the Firefox Flicks Testimonials page and join in the fun!

@Dona: First of all, please go buy yourself a dictionary. I believe you are referring to sexism; women are not a race. Second, don't you think there's a possibility that Asa may have made a typo? Don't make a mountain out of a molehill - this isn't Slashdot.

can anyone take a joke. firstly it's sarcasm. secondly why buy a dictionary if there's ones free online. thirdly sarcasm. don't make a michigan lake out of a puddle - this is a public notblog, asa's notblog.. which is open 2 the public.

My apologies, I didn't realize you were being sarcastic. :)

Dona, unfortunately light-heartedness doesn't come across well in ASCII. Oh well, maybe Asa will fix what's basically just a style issue.
Now about that ads--love 'em :) A bit dorky, but if you've got passionate users... engage 'em.

AHAHAHAHA!
Sean's rap was the best! (He should have got first prize if the ending were a bit better...)

Hi Asa,
It seems that only testimonials in english can participate of this contest. Am I right?
Posted by: Gustavo Bittencourt | December 17, 2005 3:03 AM
I would hope so, Gustavo. This isnt mozilla europes contest. If I see spreadfirefox.co.eu or something, then Im sure they will take all the european languages.
P.S.

Gustavo, not at all. Did you visit the viewer? We have participants from all over the world speaking in a multitude of languages. It just happens that this week, the most interesting ones were all in English.

Are you being a racist asa? I knew it. Men are only qualified for first place. We women are only good for one thing, is that what you're trying to imply? because that setences clearly states that men are superior to women!
