Explorer Destroyer Project

Listen to article

Yet another one of those “Too Cool for IE” campaigns.

Firefox is one of the most important software applications in the world because it can play a big part in determining the future of the web. It is crucial that an open-source, standards-based web browser becomes the most popular browser, and Firefox has a shot at being that. It’s the best product, and its popularity is climbing, thanks to amazing efforts by the Mozilla Foundation, the SpreadFirefox.org juggernaut, and many others. But if we want to avoid giving Microsoft the power to define the future of the internet, Firefox needs to keep on growing and growing and growing.


ExplorerDestroyer.com
offers some free scripts that you can put on your website to encourage your site readers to switch to FireFox. The scripts detect if a visitor is using Internet Explorer, and will either show a splash page telling them to switch or it will put a big switch banner at the top of the page (depending on how serious you want to get).

For US residents, if you sign up for Google’s referral program, you can make $1 for each person that switches.
