Today is the day that Mozilla Foundation launches Firefox 3, and goes for a world record in the process!
- OK, so I guess you need the link to download Firefox 3. Download it today (starting at 10am PT) and you can make the claim of being a Guinness World Record holder!
- Search analytics firm Enquisite has named Mark Hoffman as its new CEO. The company has also added two new VPs.
- Confirmed. Yahoo’s Jeff Weiner has indeed resigned as reported last week.

Do they count unique hosts or clicks?

@Symbian who? Firefox? I believe they are counting downloads.

I am not sure what Firefox is saying about the record. But, if they warned that V.3 wouldn’t be available after that time for a long break, then the response would have been more.

All the official download services for firefox 3 are unavailable at the moment. I think they are surprised by the hype! Funny.

The firefox 3 is proving pretty elusive. Maybe the server can’t handle its popularity or maybe my net connection is playing up again. Either way I am yet to experience it.

I have downloaded FF3 and know what? There is a plenty of pug-ins don’t work with this new version. You may say it’s naturally, but i can’t work as used to. Still don’t work: TabMix, Super Drag-n-Drop and SeoQuake plug-ins.

Yay! I have done my download, does anybody have an idea when the final tally will be released?

Downloaded it yesterday and so far so good with the exception of two pretty major shortcomings:
Google Browser Sync doesn’t work so I’m using Foxmarks.
Bookmarks don’t transfer over from FF2.

Yeah the new Firefox browser looks different, doesn’t work with all plugins and it’s crashed on me a few times already BUT I’m sure these issues will all go away in time. It does have some pretty neat features -

I really like the new Firefox browser but unfortunately some crashes have already happened. What to do- either refuse using it or wait for improvements?

I have some problems with my FF3 too. But I have resolved it and wait new updates.
