Set a Guinness World Record
Enjoy a Better Web

Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours - it’s that easy. We're not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

The official date for the launch of Firefox 3 is June 17, 2008. Join our community and this effort by pledging today.

Extra special day, 17 June too

I was just going to post without any smileys

So all we have to do is download Firefox 3 tomorrow, right?
Don't know about the others but at least I will

Emailed the link to a couple of people at work today, this is what happened, and bear in mind I work for an IT company.

"did you get my link?"
"yeah, what was it again?"
"Firefox, come on you surely know what it is right?"
"erm.. yeah yeah, its a version of internet explorer isn't it?"
"........."
"no no i mean, its like a different internet explorer right?"
"..................................."

Well, here in Spain (GMT +1) it's the download day as well but I still can't download it. I'm waiting forward to download it but I don't feel like waiting about 8 more hours to download it so I'm gonna sleep.

If everything is going as planned, FF3 is supposed to be up in about 1 hour from now.

Heh, maybe they should have setup a few mirrors.

The FF3 frontpage just went up on getfirefox.com, but the download page is still crapping out.

Heh, you'd think they would have prepared better for this.

Zorchenhimer · « **Reply #15 on:** June 17, 2008, 12:26:31 PM »

Or, they saw the pledges and said "Oh sh--" and crapped their pants.

Eiii · « **Reply #16 on:** June 17, 2008, 12:27:22 PM »

Rofl, the FF3 download page is up now, but it points to FF2 (for OSX, anyway).

Zorchenhimer · « **Reply #17 on:** June 17, 2008, 12:33:22 PM »

It points to 2.0.0.14 for all OSs and languages...

... 'cept Slovenian and Sinhala, but they point to 3.0rc3.

lekky · « **Reply #18 on:** June 17, 2008, 12:44:48 PM »
