Thinking outside the fox
First the Web Standards Project launched Browse Happy, then Spread Firefox appeared with the "Preview Release" of the browser, and now we have Defending the Fox. The community that Mozilla has attracted is making some unique strides to raise awareness of this little browser.
Defending the Fox encourages Firefox users to report websites that don't support the browser in the hopes that the sites will be fixed over time. Each entry lists the description of the problem and (a welcomed follow-through) the contact information to reach the site yourself.
I'm disappointed that one of the websites run by my previous employer is on the list. Not only does it not support Firefox, but it claims that it only works with Internet Explorer 5.x and higher. Yikes.
