Alex Vincent in the San Jose Mercury News

Being "the" Firefox evangelist in my company (I'm the guy who prints and burns Firefox CD's and hands them out to everyone...), a co-worker pointed me to a couple of articles on the San Jose Mercury News website. As I began reading through, I found that CF's very own Alex Vincent was featured in the article.

Here's the URL. The site requires registration, but it's free:

"Volunteers spread word of Firefox"
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercu...s/10293863.htm

It's great the Firefox has been getting so much good press lately. Here's another Mercury News article:

"Firefox emerges as credible threat in browser battle"
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercu...s/10293865.htm

jkd will become famous soon enough
My favorite quote from the first one:
Quote:
The ad, a full page in the New York Times, will run early next month. A single guy, Davis has canceled two first dates recently because he's too busy helping to design the ad.

One woman agreed to a rain check. The other discovered his ``work'' was really a volunteer effort. Says Davis: ``I won't be hearing from her. And that's fine.''
Mozilla warrior and lady-killer are not mutually exclusive... being a Davis myself I feel like someone should let him know that.
