Firefox 3 Sets a Guinness World Record: What do you feel


I looove the Firefox. I have used it ever since its first version came out and believe strongly in its potential. I had participated in the Firefox Guiness Record to make it the highest downloaded software in a day and I have no regrets upgrading to the Firefox 3.

The browser is gr8 but i do feel the hick-up's once in while esp. when it comes to loading Gmail or some graphic sites (I guess with eventual patchups it will be THE perfect browser to use). But nevertheless, I am still fascinated to use the Firefox 3 and have only thing to say to the Firefox team "way to go guys..."

Mozilla has announced that they’ve officially been added to the Guinness World Records for most downloads in a 24-hour period. The final tally: 8,002,530 downloads of Firefox 3 on June 18th.

From Gareth Deaves, Records Manager for Guinness World Records:

“As the arbiter and recorder of the world’s amazing facts, Guinness World Records is pleased to add Mozilla’s achievement to our archives. Mobilizing over 8 million internet users within 24 hours is an extremely impressive accomplishment and we would like to congratulate the Mozilla community for their hard work and dedication.”

After ONLY TWO WEEKS the total number of downloads tops 28 million. Mozilla has published this map showing penetration around the globe:
