Firefox 3, which was released on Tuesday, has a really cool Easter Egg. Just type “about:robots” in the address bar (aka the “awesome bar”) and nice tribute to the Firefox 3 robot mascot appears.
UPDATE 1: Another Easter Egg, “The Book of Mozilla”, can be found by typing “about:mozilla”.
UPDATE 2: George Kelly make a great sound about “about:robots”.

“And They have a plan”
That last line totally got me :)
If you type in about:mozilla you get another fun little thing.
AllAboutGeorge also has an awesome song about this called “About:Robots”.
It’s been stuck in my head all day.
Yeah, that last bit definitely made it kick ass, but I love all the references. I’d say it gives the user a pretty well-rounded idea of what robots are, what they can and cannot do, what they’ve seen, what you should not do to them, etc.
robots is a plan Mozilla have for firefox.
it’s the name of a set of modules-like plugins for how they want to “grow” the browser beyond it’s current platform and abilities…..stay tuned
If nobody has clicked on the Try Again button, I strongly urge you to do so. Twice ;)
Anyone else notice the last bullet? A reference to Bender?
“Bite My Shiny Metal Ass!” – Bender
about:ninjas? DAMN!
Check the source, some funny Ghostbusters humour in there:
