Firefox used on The Daily Show last night
Did anyone else watch Jon Stewart on The Daily Show last night on Comedy Central? A bit about the road to the White House centered around the U.S. presidential candidates’ efforts to appear in touch with the electorate though their respective websites and blogs.
In typical fashion, Jon Stewart sarcastically diced up the candidates’ attempts to look cool using the Web. While watching, I noticed that he displayed each website in the “report” using Firefox. In some cases, you can even see our red lizard in the bookmark bar. Not sure what version they were using, anyone know?
You can see the video here: http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/the_daily_show/index.jhtml
I can’t find it on YouTube, but if you scroll down one video in the “Most Recent Videos” section, you’ll see an entry called: “ClusterF@#K to the White House” premiering on June 14, 2007.




















I just checked the footage and it looks like Firefox 2.0 is used on the segment. Segments called ‘Virtual Hangouts’ from the video listings.
if you zoom it, it looks like safari
I think the first site featured looks like it is displayed with Safari, but each site after that is Firefox for sure.
Indeed looks like Firefox 2.0. Safari was also used.
Actually looking at the back/forward buttons, the first one is Fx as well. Nice!
