Firefox download day
 

Today is supposed to be firefox download day. They are trying to set a world record for most downloads on a launch day. You can participate, if you just go to:

http://www.firefox.com and get the new version (3.0)!

More info:

http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord

Only problem is, both sites are DOWN because of all the traffic!

Well, download later, if you can!

This will be down all day I bet! I want in on it! I will be downloading when I get my number called!

Re: Firefox download day
 

well they didnt break the record, but they did break the sites haha ;)

Yeah, no crap, why wouldn't they be prepared for the nerd alert.

*wait, I got in, but all it shows me is a Sneak Peak at 3. Download Now includes 2.0.0.14

*I am in and downloading the internet

*Holy shit balls, I think I am liking this! It grabs your favorites and allows you to select that out of your address bar, kind of like their Find in this page. (That probably made no sense, but this is pretty cool).

My coworker and other friends downloaded what they thought was the FF3 release but it was RC3. I'll just wait patiently.

Re: Firefox download day
 

Ah, that's what I got then. I couldn't go anywhere else. I guess I'll have to wait. False alarm. Whatever I'm using now is pretty nice though. It's a little bit different, I'm sure much more convenient.

Haha I just downloaded firefox last night on Emily's new macbook, I should have waited a day.

Re: Firefox download day

Re: Firefox download day
 

I have it installed now, Its pretty snazzy.

Re: Firefox download day
 

Sweet! Looks like its on/off, but 3.0 is nice!

Re: Firefox download day
 

I just installed it, and I dont think I like it. All they do is mess with the initial looks of it. The pull down address bar looks like its made for blind people.

Some interesting stuff for you nerds...

Here are the MD5 checksums for each release of Firefox 3:
RC2 - 0822AAE0EBF700881B9D3CDB96C9DBCA
RC3 - 8284A15C2D58A3237891B0D17D85661C
Final - 8284A15C2D58A3237891B0D17D85661C
