Before John Lilly got the CEO job at Mozilla Corporation, I had visited the HQ of the the open-source software nonprofit foundation and also a for-profit start-up–famous for its increasingly popular Firefox browser (logo pictured here) and red dragon logo–on Landings Drive in Mountain View.

I toured the place and took video note of a freakishly large sculpture made of soda cans and the biggest couch I have ever seen. In other words, just another typical Silicon Valley company.

Here’s an inside look at Mozilla HQ:

  • Great inside look at Mozilla HQ, although one suggestion: Kara, your "raw" style of filming is great, but a little dizzying. You may want to invest in a camera with a "steady shot" or "image stabilizer." Yes, you're a writer not a filmer, but if more and more videos are forthcoming, it would not be a bad idea. It'll save me from ingesting some headache medicine before watching the next video.
  • J:

    I have actually done tons and tons of videos! Check them out in our video player. This is, for better or worse, my style.

    I call it the Dramamine style of filmmaking.
