Help Design a New Firefox Home Tab

Mozilla has big plans to move the Firefox home button to a 'home tab' in the upcoming Firefox 4 release, and they want your help designing it! Here's a quick summary:

We will keep the existing functionality where you can display a web page of your choice — or disable it altogether — but since we’re moving this page to live in Firefox instead of on the web, there are some interesting opportunities.

This page will have access to a lot more of the user’s information since it never leaves the browser — history, add-ons, bookmarks, and pretty much anything you can see in Firefox at the moment. This opens up a lot of possibilities, and we’d like to see what you can do with this new-found superpower.

If you've always wanted something more out of your Firefox home page, now is your chance to contribute. The Mozilla Labs blog post has all of the details, deadlines, templates and more. You have until February 14th to submit your idea.
