Download Day!

Post by JellyFish »

Anyone here about Download Day?! Mozilla is trying to set a Guinness World Record for the most downloads of a piece of software in a 24 hour length of time.

Check it out at http://www.spreadfirefox.com/.

I personally pledged my self...to the flag... of firefox... :D

I'll probably redownload Firefox 3 though the stable once it's out. I'm surprised they are stretching the release as long as they are.

Any one know the code name for Gecko 2.0? Gecko 1.9/Firefox 3 = Minefield while Firefox 2.0 was Bon Echo.

Weeell, it's actually Gran Paradiso. But yeah, they used to refer to it as minefield...

[small]and with good reason too[/small]

According to Wikipedia, Gecko 2.0 doesn't have a codename yet.

On Firefox 3.0.0rc2 and loving it.

I am using Opera more and more as of late. It just release 9.5 as stable, but even as a beta it kicked butt.
