Mozilla aims to break the world record for the most downloaded software in 24 hours. A few hours ago, the browser was released, but the site had technical difficulties (go figure), but the site’s available now as this post is going up. Over 1.5 million people have pledged to download already, so if you haven’t already, head over to the download page and get some free software.
Firefox is available for all of the major operating systems in over 45 languages and is used in over 320 countries, and of course, is completely open source. Version 3 adds tons of new fixes and features. Remember, if you’re using RC3 (or two on Windows or Linux) and you want to participate, you must download from Mozilla’s site to have your download count!
With more than 15,000 improvements, Firefox 3 is faster, safer and smarter than ever before. The Web is all about innovation, and Firefox 3 sets the pace with dozens of new features, including the smart location bar, one-click bookmarking and blindingly fast performance.
