Firefox 3 … Go Get It … Today!
Unless you’ve been hiding under a digital rock, you’d know that the best browser in the world has released an even better incarnation: Firefox 3 is here. I could write about all of its improvements, but you can get a fuller version here, suffice it to say it runs faster, takes a lot less memory (20 tabs open suddenly takes about 300mg less RAM for me!) and has some spiffy new security features. And let’s not forget, it’s an open source creation, made by the people, for the people!
To celebrate, Mozilla are encouraging people to download Firefox 3 today, attempting to break the Guinness World Record for most downloaded software in a 24hour period. For those of us in Perth, that 24 hours runs from 1am Wed 18 June until 12.59am Thurs 19 June. So, be part of a World Record and download now! I was the 29005th person to download from Australia, so I know there are a few Aussies who could download yet! And just in case you need one last ounce of motivation, downloading FireFox 3 today will get you a cute little certificate:
Seriously: go download it now.
