Firefox 3 Download Day --> Download *Time*
Posted: Tue Jun 17, 2008 9:30 am
Seems Firefox 3 won't be released until 10AM Pacific Standard Time. To help reduce confusion since we have a lot of good folks here from all around the world I've attempted to make a little time guide. For me it's 10:15am so just add three time zones (three hours) and you've got the time from the thread post.

Firefox 3 won't kick total butt IMHO (and I use it as my default browser). So here are a couple things to help smooth the transition...

Force installing extensions (addons) is relatively easy and I have a video on YouTube where if you skip to about five minutes in to the video I run through how to get most extensions to work. Keep in mind doing so won't neccesarily make the extensions work, just override their internal compatibility ceiling set by the extension author.

Lastly for any one else interested in CSS3 I have a before and after image on my CSS3 page of the single CSS3 improvement in Gecko 1.9 that I'm currently aware of which fixes a bug where background images in Gecko 1.8 and older would not be cropped at the border...
