I was in the New York Times
Normally I don't parade around being an open source advocate/zealot. However, when I heard about the Mozilla foundation wanting to purchase an ad in the New York Times to spread FireFox, I just had to get in on it! So, I donated, and my name got placed in the ad! (Along with thousands of others...) I've attached an image showing where I was in the ad. They also have a full pdf of the ad here. |

Its in alphabetical order. Took my about a minute to find it. My connection with FireFox? I only use it, and I donated to the Spread FireFox thingy. It was covered on Slashdot awhile back. Basically only those who donated had their names in it. |

What's cooler, is they're now giving free posters out to everyone who donated because they screwed up and didn't e-mail everyone about the ad until the day after the ad. A lot of people were mad because they couldn't purchase the NYT that day, and had to back order it for more from the NYT.

What a waste of money It's nice for the individual donaters. But the money would've been spend better if they just put the add in the paper another time
