Hi guys,
[/tab]Our beloved FireFox Browser hit the 50 million-th download mark today. We were all present at their irc room on irc.mozilla.org channel #spreadfirefox and had a gala party with a whole bunch of people from around the world - taking part in the countdown. [tab]I managed to catch a snapshot of their live counter at 50 million and 1 downloads - here's the Snapshot:  This was by far one of the most exciting online events I took part in recently... 50 million Cheers to FireFox

That's awesome news! I know I have both on my PC, but I've been using Firefox most of the time now and I think it's great. I have ADSL, but still it seems that some pages take a while to load with IE. Not so with loading the same page with Firefox! A hearty congratulations to the folks at Mozilla!

Woohoo go Mozilla, well that is excellent news, that Firefox is so popular, there may still be a chance to 'Take back the web'.

Its nice to see a browser that hit the market last year take such a popular rating.
I downloaded Firefox when it first came out, and I am really pleased with it, mainly because of the tabbed browsing, and it being ore secre because it blocks harmful ActiveX applications. I am really pleased with Firefox! |

The Firefox threat will be eliminated this summer. Go ahead and delete FireFox from your computer. You're wasting space.
Not that I wasn't once a user of Firefox.. when it was created. Yet, IE is used by over half of the population. Tabbed browsing, security patches, etc coming to IE soon. Don't waste your time coding for two browsers. |
