Download Day is here!
Set a Guinness World Record
Enjoy a Better Web
Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do to help us set the record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours is get Firefox 3 now – it’s that easy. We're not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.
Please download Firefox 3 by 11:16 a.m. PDT (18:16 UTC) on June 18, 2008. That's 11:16 a.m. in Mountain View, 2:16 p.m. in Toronto, 3:16 p.m. in Rio de Janeiro, 8:16 p.m. in Paris, Madrid, Berlin, Rome and Warsaw, 10:16 p.m. in Moscow, and June 19, 2008 at 2:16 a.m. in Beijing and 3:16 a.m. in Tokyo.
Re: FireFox 3.0 - Help set a Guinness World Record!
bleh. Just put up a botnet of machines you bought from some script kiddie and set them to repeatedly download it.
Voila, millions of downloads.
Remember: download counts don't say a thing about actual users, and even less about actual persistent users.
I tried pretty much every version of FF, and quickly abandoned all of them.
Yet they probably count me for 5 or 6 downloads at least.
Re: FireFox 3.0 - Help set a Guinness World Record!
I dunno but thats what the site says that they are doing at the moment. They got about 13 million downloads and that must have to count for something at least!
