Personas update

Firefox firstrun page

It’s been a crazy few days for Personas since the release of Firefox 3.6. In case you didn’t already know, Personas are built-in to Firefox 3.6! Now millions more users of Firefox can enjoy personalizing their browser with Personas.

Since the Firefox firstrun page features Personas and links to the gallery, we’ve seen a substantial increase in traffic to the site. Here are some basic stats:

Since Jan 21st, we’ve had:

  • 35 million pageviews
  • 3 million unique visitors
  • 250 thousand add-on downloads and
  • >3,000 new personas uploaded

All in all, it’s been a great ride so far. We’re excited that Personas are being exposed to a whole new audience and thousands more artists are creating personas.

But we do need your help; we need approvers! Our current team of persona approvers needs help keeping up with all the new personas being uploaded every day. If you’ve created a persona and are interested, please read the review guidelines and send us an email at personas@mozilla.com. You can help us make Personas for Firefox a success!

P.S: If you haven’t already, check out our awesome Personas video on the homepage.
