The Firefox 5 Minute Challenge, the marketing material developed by myself and a handful of volunteers over at SpreadFirefox that is available in 17 languages, has finally been finished. Unfortunately its completion was delayed a little, but thanks to Charl van Niekerk, there is now a reasonably good stylesheet written for it. It’s not perfect; there are a few issues that need to be worked out, especially with the images and the way some things are positioned, but it’s good enough for now. So, what are you waiting for? Link to the challenge, and send all your visitors that are still using IE over there and help make up their mind to take back the web!

Bloggies 2005
The nominations for the 2005 Bloggies are now open (via 456 Berea Street). As this site has only been running since around May 2004, this is my first opportunity to be nominated, and indeed the first time I have ever heard about them. Out of fairness, I won’t nominate myself; but I see no shame in begging…
I really would be honoured to be nominated for something like the best article, best Australian blog, best web development blog or, of course, best new weblog for 2004! ? Good luck to everyone, and may the best blogs win!
Spreading the Fox!
If you haven’t already done so, get amongst the action at Spread Firefox, and help out with the campaign in anyway you can. With over 720,000 downloads in just three days, our hopes for 1,000,000 downlaods in 10 days will be exceeded beyond anyone’s wildest expectations… Well, almost everyone’s.
I thought the campaign was doing exceptionally well when I wrote my previous post on the Firefox campaign, but they really were only just getting started. Also, I thought it was really great news that the domain, http://www.firefox.com/, has been donated to Mozilla by Kevin Karpenske for use in the campaign!
