Mozilla Firefox and Kodak: A Marriage of True Minds

Posted on Mar 5, 2007 by Jane Goodwin at 12:05 am

According to market research firm InfoTrends, by 2010, nearly 83 million people in the United States will be using online photo services annually.

Uploading and sharing pictures online has never been easier, thanks to Kodak Gallery and Mozilla’s Firefox Web Browser. The Firefox Companion, for Kodak Gallery, combines the award-winning Firefox browser with the world’s number one online photo service making it easier than ever to upload, share, and printing your digital photos and create amazing photo gifts like books, calendars, collages, and more. The Firefox Companion is available now for free download at the Firefox website.

Madhav Mehra, general manger of Kodak Gallery, says, “We want to provide consumers with easy and convenient ways to do more with their pictures and thanks to the Firefox Companion for Kodak, they an now upload and share faster than ever before.”

“The Firefox Companion for Kodak Gallery makes uploading large numbers of photos fast, easy, and reliable,” said Christopher Beard, vice president, marketing and product management, Mozilla. “We’re excited to offer an online photo solution that combines the ease of use of Firefox with the quality and convenience of the Kodak Gallery experience.”

Firefox and Kodak’s release of the new companion will provide a seamless online experience for the growing group of photo enthusiasts, making it easier to drag and drop images from their computer directly to the companion, easily create a new photo album or add to an existing one, add captions in the browser that will be uploaded with their pictures to Kodak Gallery’s online site, and, of course, whatever pictures are stored in the gallery can be uploaded to almost any digital picture frame, whether it be wireless or otherwise.

Kodak (compare/contrast their old/new logo!) is one of the world’s foremost imaging innovators, and Mozilla Firefox is a global community dedicated to building free, open-source products and technologies that improve the online experiences for people everywhere.

The combination is irresistible. It’s a hit.
