The latest crop circle hints that E.T. prefers Firefox.

Perhaps a simple message from visitors beyond the stars, or more likely a shameless promotional campaign.

No, it isn't really news, but it is kinda neat. This crop circle just outside of Amity, Oregon may have been left by alien open source browser users. My guess, that is far more likely that some of the Firefox development team had planned it. The 220 foot wide phenomena is striking, but most likely human formed.

I just hope that we don't see an IE crop circle any time soon. Sufficed to say, if there was an Internet Explorer crop circle, the surrounding vegetation might become infected with some unknown virus. The earth around it may spontaneously develop large, irreparable holes. And hundreds of other smaller crop circles would crop up around it, trying to patch all of those problems.

You know when you bash IE like you have no knowledge about it really dampens Neoseeker's rep.

Oh Noooz! It looks like Firefox's logo *shifty eyes towards aliens*

But seriously it looks good.

Not really. Seriously though, I want to see a PS2 logo carved into the crops like that. It would look neat.

No kidding. A Ps2 logo would look excellent. It's amazing how things like this seem to pop around every day, and no one seems to notice...
