Firefox, is my favourite browser. I guess the same sentiment is shared by a significant bit of the world population, since Firefox's download number is quickly reaching up to 1 billion.

If people ask me, why do I really love Firefox, previously I would keep repeating feature after feature to them. But in all fairness, features change. More and more get incorporated, and many other projects, quickly implement the same. I have been thinking over a couple of months, and frankly, the reason I finally came to, has more to do with me as a person, than the software per se.

Awesome video about the new Mozilla Firefox 3.5 and its features made by Launch Team India.. check it out at vimeo : http://vimeo.com/4786676  and also at youtube :

Have people noticed how many downloads there are from Iran? 500,000+ is a significant number, especially compared to countries of the same region. Any thoughts on how this is so?

Is the reason that Africa contributed so little to the download record because they all use Safari? :P

Why the official Firefox Download Counters don't work anymore?
My Yahoo! Widget gets the Data from the official Download Counter Website and now it don't work anymore.

WHY ?

I have heard some people say that Firefox 3 really improves on the amount of memory that Firefox uses although for me this isn't the case. As I type this message Firefox is using about 195,000K of memory and has at times exceeded the 200,000K mark.

yeah so firefox 3 hv really new features n its quite fast now... eats less memory.. thats d main gud point of it...
ALL COOL STUFF !!!

Hi all:  I am collecting collateral materials to be sent to Guinness World Record.  Please comment with any links to coverage from your city or country on Download Day, or links to pictures.  I have a lot of media coverage from the US, Argentina, Brazil and Europe (http://standblog.org/blog/post/2008/06/19/Firefox-3-launch-press-coverag...), but I'd love to see articles and blog po

Is there an anomaly in the data from Lithuania? Their statistics were reported to be comparable, if slightly ahead, of Estonia most of download day. Then suddenly they surged past Germany. Is there a mistake or manipulation, or a logical explanation? Who audits this sort of thing? I know there is some audit mechanism because of the Guinness Book of World Records attempt.

It seems that Firefox 3 has problem with Babylon.
Babylon cannot recognize text correctly. It is using OCR on a picture. Any ideas?

Unfortunately the kind folks at Dohzilla didn't do the responsible thing and make rollbacks readily available after a big update. For those of you wanting to downgrade, it's available via FTP here:
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.14
 
Get it while it's hot before Dohzilla removes the files from their servers.

Does anybody have an estimate of the number of record-breaking downloads that didn't happen yesterday because the web team decided to wait until the day of to check if their download links worked?
Good work. Duh.
 

I have downloaded Firefox 3, and am using the default theme, but it looks nothing like the firefox you have been advertising. E.g. my back button is the same size as my forward button - i thought they were going to change???? Have I set it up right? I am running XP and my specs meet the requirements.

When I click download Firefox 3 the system automaticly selects the Bulgarian version (because I'm from Bulgaria :P ) and then a 404 error appear. Obviously the Bulgarian version hasn't been uploaded to the server.

Hello, since yesterday (June 17) Firefox 3 have 5.622.214  downloads in Baixaki.com.br, that is one of the more expressives
download sites in Brazil. But in the Spreadfirefox status we have only 176.000 downloads. You think to do anything about this?

Hi
Re: Firefox 3
 
how do i stop my bookmarks appearing in the address bar?
 
you know how before, when clicking on the arrow  (far right of address bar), Firefox would show your list of visited sites?
 
well now it's showing all my bookmarks
 

Why no Polar region tracking for the download statistics?  Even Chad with its 1 copy downloaded was tracked.

Is there anyone who took the data from
http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord
and created realtime statistics of download progress?
Will the data progression be made available to pubblic?
Thanks

Hey, i just visited download.com where they put firefox 3 as a featured download, and as of this moment, it has registered 13,955,885 downloads! MUCH MORE THAN ON THE OFFICIAL SITE! something has to be done about this!

Most of the firefox downloads done from India are attributed to the US. The reason being, almost all the Software companies in India have a leased line which connects to the US network. Even our IP addresses are mapped to that domain. So, all the FF3 downloads we do today will be accounted as downloads done in the US.

I wanted to make a half  banner for one of my websites that would match the color pallet.  Here is it if anyone else want it :)
http://ramblingsoul.com/ff3png24.png

FF3 really rocks!

I really wanted to say thanks to the two lonely people in the Republic of Congo who have downloaded thus far.  :D  Your fellow firefox users all over the world thank you.

You can check how many people (approximately) switched to FF3 by going to wakoopa.com/downloadday! Pretty fun to see... keep the adoptation going!

Apart rom no one knowing when downloads would start, by thetime I received an email, I was aready prepared to give up. Yes I'd put the advertisng banners on my website.
which were quickly deletd, when everyone realised that nothing was happening.
Finally downloaded this long awaited, firefox 3.
Installed and it crashes. Try to send crash report.

just click on any of this links and you'll get your firefox downloaded!

Hi There.
Earlier I managed to get Firefox 3 for my Laptop successfully. I just got home and tried to get it for my desktop, but the En-US download page on Mozilla (that I end up on after clicking "download 3" on World Record Page here at Spread Firefox), only shows Fx2.0.0.14 available at the moment. Firefox 3 has been lost from that page!

If the organisation and planning of this day are indicative of the goods to come, then I'd rather pass...

Just wondering do all the plug ins work for Firefox 3, my main concern being does SEO quake work for firefox 3?

A Firefox 3 download day party! Anyone can come and get Firefox 3, any version! Will also contain a basic talk on Firefox and Mozilla for those hearing this for first time.

Party at Viva College, Virar, India

When you have sent out emails to most of the world saying that it will be available on the 17th and you can only provide it 17 hours late - don't you think the whole thing is wrong?
You will only get this record now - because no-one else has the record - not the record you could have had though with a bit of organisation!

you should have been more specific about the time. as you know date is pretty irrelevant on a global-scale.
good luck!

I think that download link will be:
http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-3.0&os=linux&lang=en-US
substituting 'linux' with your OS and en-US with your locale
It's correct?
or exist another direct download link?

I've alpha tested 3, beta tested, and been using the rc for a time now. And I was checking my version, and lol behold, I'm using  Firefox 3.0
Not rc, but the real deal. Anyone know why they are choosing to release the offical download a day after the autoudate for us testers?

I suggest create one more map of FireFox „PLEDGE“, where we can see percentage for <pledged people>/<country population>
In this manner, we can see the most-active country ;)

In honor of the occasion I think Mozilla should redesign the google/firefox stat page, just a little touch of the old one.

DownloadDay is in many languages but not in Arabic.
I suggest to add this in the menu-lang as other languages
That's why contributors from arab countries are little
Working on arabic banners to spread it ..

Hello world of Firefox fans,
Are buttons and banners for FF3 in the offing? or can we adapt the FF2 buttons?
We'll need affiliate buttons to get people zooming to the mozilla.org donwload page.

Hello everybody,
How will you be counting the 24 hours of D-Day? Perhaps you should give the time limits in universal time so that we all know when we can download FF? This should have to go on the FF home page, on MozillaZine, etc.

Today, I've watched my little blog's stats recorded the first time FF2 passes IE7. OK Ok, I know what you guys want to say but considering most of my readers are from China and Australia (where people mostly use IE 7 or even below), this is great! And to make it more comparable, last year IE 7 users outnumbered FF2 users by nearly 70%.

So I suppose that Download Day is in fact only 24 hours, and considering the diffrent time zones somewhere Download day could start at midday or 6pm or what ever. So it will be nice if a table with the larger citiese would be provided so that everyone knows exactly the hour when the creating the record would start.

When I pledged on the 28.05.2008 on the map my country was named as it should be Macedonia.
Now it has been misteriosly changed to FYROM. Why have this happened?
It is ofending that it was changed in the map after I and ~1.300 from Macedonia already pledged to participate in the Download day when you called my country with it's proper name.

Hey Everyone,
Have you been dying to see a great summer movie? Well come out to The Red Panda Network's Screening of Kung Fu Panda (also a Firefox Party) at the Aquarius Theater in Palo Alto on June 21 from 2-5pm. If you haven't heard Dustin Hofmann takes a turn as the red panda.
Our Firefox will be in attendance along with the director of Kung Fu Panda.

It could just be me, but I can't find Singapore anywhere on the world map even though Singaporeans have made up to 4k+ pledges for Download Day.
I've clicked everywhere in the vicinity of Malaysia and Indonesia, but no tiny red dot shows up at all. Some help would be appreciated?

This could be a fun discussion. My question is: By which means did you first hear about FireFox
 
1. Heard or saw it at a friend's.
2. Came across it on the WWW
3. Got it on a CD
4. Saw it in a magazine.

Well, I'm not that politically sensitive. But when I found that Taiwan was originally marked as "Chinese Taibei", but changed to Taiwan as a country because a Hungarian said it should be, I was angry.

Hi guys. I have a question. On download day, will there be a counter showing the exact amount of downloads that there have been? I would love to see the number as it goes up.
 
Also, if I had, say RC2, and I updated it via the help menu, would it still count toward the final count?

Somewhere in the lifespan of a Mozilla user, he/she will come to a point where he/she will ask him/herself "Why did I download Firefox and why am I so impressed every damn time I open the browser?"
There could be thousands of explanations, but the best answer would simply be, it's a damn good browser!

As I walked home today, my mind drifted into Mozilla bliss, and I tried to recall the day that I started using Firefox...
As you may think, I was unable to find the exact date or time. I know why. The first time I downloaded it, I downed it because
I was tired. Tired of Microsoft's over-expensive licensing of their products. Mostly, I was just tired of Internet Explorer,

The map on the Firefox 3 pleadge is incorrect. It shows POK to be a part of the pakistani territory. 
Since POK is a disputed area a representation like this highly disturbs the feelings of the indian public.

Why is it Firefox jumped all over Apple for Safari but is now doing the same thing Apple is doing?

Run a Speed test to see which is the faster browser. Learn which is more compliant to open standards. And take anything M$ says with a sack of salt.

I hope that the 24 hour period for the download record does NOT straddle two days, but is the 24 hours of ONE day.  With all the time zones in the world and date line troubles would it not be easier for all to  settle on a 24 h period  of one calendar day?  Just a thought.

I bet there are a lot of people like me who would gladly download firefox 3 on download day to help set the record, but would probably forget about it.

I decided to create my own version of the 'Firefox3 Download Day' button in Hebrew.

Attached you can find my version of the button.

Enjoy it :-)

Is there any plan to provide an embedable map gadget? I'm building a Traditional Chinese site of Download Day (moztw.org/events/record2008) but just can't embed the map to my page. It keep telling "Error loading file: http://www.spreadfirefox.com/sites/all/themes/spreadfirefox_RCS/images/d....

When I created a Download day launch party, it said i would receive a Firefox "party pack" if eligible. Does anyone know what this party pack is or what makes you eligible? Should i sign up for it? Thanks in advance.

Never mind, this appears to be fixed now. Thank you! Oh...and now I have two extra pledges that need to be taken off :POld message follows: "Pledge Now" American link is not asking for e-mail.  It is supposed to, since the e-mail will be used to remind us to download it.  Link is here:

I was reading the rules when I got to the part where they log the downloads. If I put a copy on every computer at my school will it count only as one? Or will each download count individually. I'd like to know before actually doing it.

This will be more effective if we would have a concrete date for the release, or at least an estimate that we could get out to the public.

Hi all:  There has been some lively discussion on how various countries are rendered or not included in the map.  Please bear with us on this -- Mozilla isn't trying to make any political statements here :)  Finding an application that could do what we wanted technically and had a complete country list and map was impossible.  We went with a great solution called amMap and w

Hello,

I saw your Download Day 2008 idea, very nice! I thought that it would be nice when there's a Dutch version from that page. I'm from The Netherlands, so maybe you'd like it when I translate it?

Kind regards,
Jonathan Hogervorst.

I request the admins to please use a World map which is politically accurate and correct the current mistake. A huge part of India [as big as Albania!!!] is shown to be a part of a neighbouring country. At most this portion of our country can be claimed internationally to be 'disputed'. Such mistake isn't expected from responsible people at Firefox.

What's happening with Albania? They're growing too much in the Pledge map!!!
Every minute there were about 200-220 new pledges, but since half an hour ago there have been being about 280-300, and the difference is all Albania...
 
Uhmmm..I think somebody wants to win the race in an "illegal" manner...

I wrote a small toolbar button extension crap to display the number of pledges by country. It's still in development I won't develop it any further. Feel free to try.

What do you think the first European country to go yellow will be?
Will it be Poland, Germany, Spain, the UK, or maybe some sudden change will come? What are your predictions?
In any case, let's go Europeans, let's show the world what we're capable of!

depend very special political issue between taiwan and china
we recommend change "Chinese Taipei" to "Taiwan", and from "select a country" to "select a country or a region"
this change would be satisfy people from china and taiwan.
