Firefox Download Day 2008 - For A World Record

[Punk]

It's to break the world record for most downloads in 24 hours.

Lol what a record...

 

[alexyu]

hey is there any record for the most downloaded software in 24h?

 

[Calibretto]

hey is there any record for the most downloaded software in 24h?

There currently is no record. That's why Firefox is setting it.

 

[patrickv]

i can't pledge for the life of me cause my country is not in the list

 

[Calibretto]

What country do you live in Patrick?

 

[WhiteFireDragon]

wait can someone help me clarify? if we pledge, that means on the day firefox3 releases, it automatically downloads on our comp? or this pledging just means you gave them you word to DL it?

 

[patrickv]

What country do you live in Patrick?

Sez - hihi, that's short for Seychelles

 

[alexyu]

Hey if you havent visited since you pledged the page you should know firefox3 will launch on the 17th

 

[Kesava]

Sez - hihi, that's short for Seychelles

is that pronounced "Sea Shells"?

 

[patrickv]

is that pronounced "Sea Shells"?

yeah you can spell it like that, but it's not one
or you can say "Say-shells" !!

 

[Kesava]

Stoked. I really need a new web browser. I hope its good. Opera isnt working out for me.

 

[GameMaster]

Opera isnt working out for me.

Use IE 8.0. Blame me if it's bad!

 

[Kesava]

What qualifies as an official download of Firefox?

A "download" is the transmission of the entire, fully functioning Firefox 3 -- not an update.

what does that mean?
like im using firefox 3 RC3, so if i install it is it just gonna be considered an update?
i dont get it...

 

[GameMaster]

No. It's quite the opposite lol. If you download it, you downloaded a brand-new Firefox browser.

 

[cybereclipse]

well... i just fixed my ol desktop and just finished installing winxp again
installed my firewalls n stuff and now im waiting to download firefox3!
its not out yet in the US even tho its 1:38 AM in the morning

ahh well looks like im stuck with IE 6 (the best version of IE in my opinion cuz 7s wayyy too slow) for the night
sigh

 

[GameMaster]

You're crazy guys.
You're using IE 6.0 because IE 7.0 is too slow. Even if that was the truth, why don't you download IE 8.0 then???

 

[cybereclipse]

well cuz i hate IE period
its ok tho.. i realized after i posted that... i kept hitting ctrl+t subconsciously to try an open a new tab so now im usin firefox 2 for the time being
