Pedo Fox

Foxkeh is Firefox's official mascot here in Japan and am wondering if you have heard of him in your region?
Cant help but think if Pedo bear when I see Foxkeh - am I the only one?
BTW, you can also download bits of foxkeh in PNG format and make your own pedo poses.
I used to work with the girl below at Amazon who's now doing marketing at Mozilla Japan - do they do Firefox ads in your region too?
If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.
If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

No firefox mascot and no commercials that I've seen anyways. But I wouldn't mind more of the cute lady with the ears.

I've seen the fox before, but never knew it had a name.
As for your other question, I've never seen ads around here, but I'm not really looking, either...

yeah ive heard of foxkeh before. used to pay attention to the blog and had the theme. bad part is firefox3 isnt compatible with the theme so ill have to wait til its fixed but i have a window background set.
doesnt really remind me of pedobear though lol.
there arent any firefox ads in america as far as i know but their shirts used to serve as a good way of getting the word out.

Did you know that Foxkeh has his own Firefox 2 theme you can download from Firefox Japan? I've been using it for a very long time on FF2 right after I made the switch to FF3 just a few days ago (after which I got unsatisfied with the fact that so many of my add-ons were non-compatible with it and switched to Opera 9.5).

I think you guys are sick... It's just another gif icon like Hatsune Miko and Danny's "sisters" on desktop and must you develop ill intentions over it?

Never knew there were Firefox ads... or any browser ads for that matter.
Pedobear has sort of a fox face...
But yeah, like Zen said... lolifox FTW!

Actually, I have heard of it, but only for three days. When I downloaded FF3, I discovered Personas for Firefox. It's a Mozilla project which includes many easily applied themes within a single extension, which is updated with more themes from time to time. There are 12 Foxkeh themes included.
You can find it at http://labs.mozilla.com/2007/12/personas-for-firefox/

Wow I didn't even know Firefox had marketing O_o. I have never seen or heard of a commercial or any sort of mascot until now. Of course Lolifox has a mascot...
Shooting EM beams onto stuff and checking to see what comes out.

If the japanese are as crazy over kitsunes as their anime suggests, no wonder they will run an ad over there =)
Nary an ad here for singapore, would love to have a firefox-tan figure (or other merchandise) to show my love =P
