Impact Mozilla Challenge: Firefox Wants Your Marketing Strategy
Introducing our newest open source marketing project—a contest that gives you a chance to make your mark on Mozilla. We're looking for innovative ways to make sure people who download Firefox become regular users.
Interested? Start by sending us a summary of your ideas and an overview of how you and your team will carry them out. If your initial strategy makes the cut, we'll ask for a complete plan detailing your solution.
If your plan is selected as the winner, you'll have the opportunity to manage a marketing campaign for one of the top brands in the technology world. We'll give you the resources to enact your solution, plus $3,000 for the winning proposal.
Here's an overview of the first steps you'll take to Impact Mozilla.
Propose a Plan
Impact Mozilla is an open contest—we're giving anyone and everyone a chance to solve a critical Mozilla marketing challenge. We're even allowing contestants to use internal data and resources to address this key marketing issue. Once you've looked at our problem, submit the summary of your solution along with an executable plan. Whether you're a student or a start-up, this is your chance to make a difference.
Solve a Critical Issue
Retention marketing is one of Mozilla's key challenges. Currently tens of millions of Firefox users download the browser, but about 75% of those users are not active after that initial download. How do we get these past users back? And how do we keep future users active once they've downloaded Firefox?
Your team can tackle this retention challenge or pinpoint another marketing challenge and propose a solution. Acquisition marketing? Social media marketing? International marketing? As long as your strategy is thoughtful and quantifiable, the choice is yours.

Glasgow limbers up for Euro dance
Who knew eh?
Millions of people in 23 countries are expected to watch the Eurovision Dance Contest, which will take place at the SECC in Glasgow later.
Television coverage will be hosted live on BBC One by Graham Norton and Claudia Winkleman.
The 135-minute programme will see 15 couples compete - each made up of one professional and one celebrity.
They will perform one freestyle dance with a national flavour which may have elements of Latin and Ballroom.
Strictly Come Dancing's Len Goodman and Craig Revell Horwood will offer comments on performances and artistic content.
Viewers will then be asked to vote on the choreography, costume and music.
Seems odd, pairing up with a celebrity, not in the spirit of the song contest.
Still, with a few beers on a saturday night I'm sure there uglier things I could watch, like football.. Who knew eh? ... more -

You Blue viral contest: ora online i video in concorso
Creato dall’Associazione Amici del Future Film Festival (organizzatrice del più rilevante evento italiano dedicato all’animazione ed agli effetti speciali che si svolge da undici anni a Bologna) e sponsorizzato da DerbyBlue (tra le marche leader del mercato italiano dei succhi di frutta), il concorso ha invitato giovani registi alla creazione di spot virali sul tema «Derby. Fruit as ultimate transgression».
Le numerose opere in concorso hanno giocato con il tema con ironia e irriverenza, dimostrando una notevole creatività anche nelle tecniche utilizzate che spaziano dal live action all’animazione.
Il gran numero di opere pervenuto per il concorso dimostra l’alto gradimento dei giovani registi nel confrontarsi con il tema e il format proposto da You Bue Viral Contest: lo spot virale, uno dei più giovani, innovativi e popolari veicoli comunicativi di oggi diventato negli ultimi anni un vero e proprio fenomeno mediatico.
Tutti coloro che voteranno i video nel sito del concorso andranno a costituire la Giuria Online che assegnerà il primo premio di 3.000 euro e il secondo premio di 1.500 euro.
Inoltre verrà costituita anche una Giuria di Esperti che sarà composta da personalità del mondo della comunicazione e dello spettacolo e che assegnerà un primo premio di 5.000 euro e un secondo premio di 2.500 euro.
You Blue Viral Contest, oltre alle opere vincitrici, premierà anche, con estrazione a sorte, i votanti che hanno costituito la Giuria on-line:

Call for video journalists for You Tube Contest
You Tube's Citizen News channel has released a video promo for an upcoming citizen journalism contest. They will be receiving videos of less than 3 minutes in length, in English, of a video profile about someone in your community you believe should be known by the rest of the world. The prizes and other information will be released in September.
As a tip for citizen journalists in communities where English isn't the native language, using voice-overs or subtitling interviews in English (DotSub is a great service for subtitling) might be a way to make your content eligible for the contest. Let's wait and see until more information is released on conditions and instructions, although it has already been cleared up in the comments that all YouTube users older than 13 years of age can participate.

Ozzfest 2008: 10 Acts Selected To Take Part In 'Battle Of The Bands'
Texas radio station 97.1 The Eagle has teamed up with The Loft and Monster Energy to send one lucky band to kick off this year's Ozzfest.
The following 10 bands have been selected to take part in the "Battle of the Bands" on August 7 at The Loft in Dallas:
BLACK TOOTH
BROTHERHOOD
DEBRI
EARLY PEARL
CALLING ALL WAR
MOVING ATLAS
RIVETHEAD
SEROSIA
BORN 2 NOTHING
STIR THE SILENCE
The "grand prize" winner will play on the Monster Energy Drink Stage (Texas Stage) at Ozzfest and will receive a one-year contract agreement with Monster Energy Drink.
To hear audio samples from each of the above-listed bands, go to this location.
Ozzfest organizers confirmed earlier in May through a post at the official web site that the festival, a touring event for more than a decade, will transform into a "destination festival" this summer. OZZY OSBOURNE and METALLICA will headline the one-day show on August 9. Also appearing on the main stage are SERJ TANKIAN, KORN singer Jonathan Davis, HELLYEAH, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, SHADOWS FALL, APOCALYPTICA, IN THIS MOMENT and what's being billed as an "all-star tribute" to slain PANTERA and DAMAGEPLAN guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott.

Main Stage:

Texas (Third) Stage: *
THE SWORD
DROWNING POOL
RIGOR MORTIS
WITHIN CHAOS
THE DESTRO
* Homage to the "many great metal bands that come from Texas," according to Sharon Osbourne
Rumors had been circulating for months that Ozzfest would become a one-or-two-day event this summer, with METALLICA surfacing as a potential headliner in the last few weeks. This will be the band's first Ozzfest appearance.
Last year's Ozzfest, which hit 25 cities, was a free event, with tickets handled through corporate sponsorship. The tour caused controversy by asking acts to play without getting paid, which many felt led to a weaker lineup. Texas radio station 97.1 The Eagle has teamed up with The Loft and Monster Energy to send one lucky band to kick off this year's ... more -
