Firefox 3 D-Day

Firefox 3 Download Day 2008
Jun
17

Today is download day for Firefox 3.0 - they hope to set the World Record for the most downloaded application in 24 hours.

I personally can't wait to see how the final one compares to the release candidates and the betas. When Firefox 2 was released a lot of extensions weren't ready - but hopefully the majority of extensions will be ready by now.

Even though it's 9am BST, it's still not available - I guess we're waiting for the Americans on this one. Once it's out though, make sure you go get it!

UPDATE: The release time will be 10:00am San Francisco time, which means in British Summer Time that is 6:00pm.

Well it's 18:15 here now, and it's late! What a start :(

After the initial 15 minutes of the Firefox being reaaally slow it's finally got some speed (18:31) - but still no Firefox 3.0

Come on Mozilla! It's 30 minutes late!

okay, it's installed. Having a few issues getting updates for addons though as the addons.mozilla.org is timing out and I can't get the update for Firebug from getfirebug.com either as that's got a HTTP service error. o joy - hopefully I won't need Firebug before it comes back to life!
