Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

It’s official, Firefox has entered the Guinness World Record for being downloaded over 8 million times in one day. That easily smashed their goal over 5 million downloads. No doubt that this shows the dedication and loyalty that Firefox users have for the software.

Mozilla Firefox 3 Released

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

Firefox 3.0 was released early last week. So far it’s been a heck of a lot faster for me, though to be fair I’ve only given it about two hours of full usage and several of my extensions (my most important ones at that!) have yet to be updated.

Not to turn this into a Firefox vs Opera debate, but that is one of the many reason I always loved Opera more than Firefox… Opera “just worked”. I didn’t need to update or find new extensions for the key features that i used. Thsoe being the ability to move the tab bar (I like mine on the bottom) and mouse gestures. I’m disabled without my browser set up like I’m use to. Bah!
