Did you know that Mozilla makes 10 of millions of dollars from that little google search box atop every mozilla browser? In the bay area people keep telling me that Mozilla will make $76MM this year. I believe them, but I can’t find a solid source.

I was in Manhattan just off of 5th Avenue on the 23rd floor of a near bye building. Looking down I could see throngs of people in clear plastic raincoats, gather round a camera crew and some lights.
One or two people were in the middle of the obviously orchestrated crowd. The crowd would get signals to yell and scream. Screams would go up, then silence, then more screams, then more silence. I’m sure this all looked good on camera, but from my vantage point, it looked hideously fake.
According to news.com Apple’s 2005 fiscal year revenues from stores was $2.35 billion.
My point isn’t what you think it is. The manufactured image of Apple is probably a necessity and best practice. Now a days even the smallest mom and pop store can take a video camera, shoot some footage, make an ad/event and post it on a web site. Heck you could even do it with your cell phone.
