Download Day
For the latest release of Mozilla Firefox 3, there’s an attempt to set a new Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours.
If you want to help in the effort of setting this world record, the only thing you need to do is get over there and download Firefox 3 by 18:16 UTC today (June 18, 2008). That’s 11:16 a.m. in Mountain View, 2:16 p.m. in Toronto, 3:16 p.m. in Rio de Janeiro, 8:16 p.m. in Paris, Madrid, Berlin, Rome and Warsaw, 10:16 p.m. in Moscow, and June 19, 2008 at 2:16 a.m. in Beijing and 3:16 a.m. in Tokyo. There’s also a map on the website where you can track the number of downloads live on a world map.
Mozilla Firefox is an extremely popular web browser, open source and freely available at no cost whatsoever. As of May 2008, Firefox has a recorded usage share of 18.41%, making it the second-most popular browser in current use worldwide, after Internet Explorer. The developers of Firefox aimed to produce a browser that “just surfs the web” and delivers the “best possible browsing experience to the widest possible set of people.” Personally, I’m already using it for years and it’s truly great in features, speed, performance, security, flexibility and user-friendliness! I can heartily recommend it!
