Are you Participating in FireFox Download Day 2008?

I LOVE FIREFOX

i have it downloaded btw first comment!

OMG 2nd POST

I have flock it is awesome

Safari blows firefox ftw has worked the best for me over explorer opera and saf..

I wish Safari could duplicate tabs like I can do with an addon in Firefox.

If FF3 is going to be a hell a lot better then FF 2.0.0.14, then I will stay with my Flock 1.1.4. I was tired of the trouble that the recent FF 2.0.0.14.

I just pledged

i would use safari if a had a mac but i dont and i dont like the safari for windows
i have converted 2 friends to firefox!!

i just pledged
and i have always used firefox

firefox 3 FTW… safari annoys me with its font if anyone know show to change it I might just switch to safari but i have been with firefox for a while and im hoping too :D

I am.

how much in australia

Cant wait. Thanks for the info Chris!

Nope, I’m not participating. I’m not a huge fan of Firefox.

i use FireFox, Safari, IE 7, Opera, and IT&T Yahoo browser… it’s crazy!!

i will pledge just for the geek of it…

I’am

5,107 at this moment in time

It sounds like a great idea, but NOWHERE on the site does it say what the current record is for most software downloaded in 24 hours. This is kinda stupid. Just Mozilla wanting to make headlines.

when is this going to be ? what time ?

the date has not been released
just go pledge, and they will email u when its time

yeah, i went to pledge and they said that they were going to send me a email with the time, they sent me a email, but no time, just what is the donwload day about….

wow 20-30k in one day

DONE IT
well going to wait for it to come out to download now.

I’m downloading it. I’ve been a user of FF since 2004. I’m already on FF3 RC1.

They should get good servers for the onslaught.

Well, I’m already using RC1, but I’m pledging anyway. :-) Firefox is just awesome!

i pledged

sorry, i wont be doing that, i hate FF(just my opinion)
I will be doewloading IE8 the very day it’s released :)
(using beta1 right now)
the only non IE browser i can stand is maxthon. sorry FF fans

Which sucks

I’m an Avid Firefox user and I think it’s one of the best browsers around. I have got Firefox 3 already (RC1), but I will DEFINITELY be downloading it on Firefox Download Day.

DONE and DONE!

I can’t wait to find out what FireFox has thrown into this one, maybe some docked bookmarks like my Safari…0.o

<saw the new FireFox logo…WIN!

im dedicated to opera, tried ff many times with negative resualts

firefox rulez

ie8 is disgusting ive tried beta and it just don’t work… FF FTW

Maybe you should get your pledge site to work with Opera, then you would have at least one more for your record.

cheers

Fredd

Ive pledged yesterday.

ughhhh IE

i love ie8!

all of the numbers have nearly trippled.

I pledged, but I don’t see it replacing my current browser, Safari

firefox 3 has already been released… get a clue please

I pleged a couple of days ago! Can’t wait to help out and get the final version of FF3!

I’m on vista and i love safari but unfortunately live mail doesn’t work on it! ill try firefox 3 but like chris said, safari is clean and simple!

get an education…please learn how to read and if u already can, try to understand the magical composition of lines we call letters that make up words…

firefox 3 is only in beta…. get a clue please

i just pledged this morning! And by the way the fire fox 3 that has been relaesed is the beta version the finished version is NOT out yet!

I got my mother to use firefox and she doesn’t even know it. That’s how computer illiterate she is. She checks her email with it and never notices. XD She probably doesn’t even know what IE is, and just considers it “The Innernets”.

ill do it, but only if my add-ons work.

yea he knows, he says to dl it when it comes out

its only in beta

i was talking to Super240987

Safari and Firefox are the best! IE sucks! I pledge to download FF3 whenever that day comes. It really is the best browser for free! So many haven’t heard of it yet. Some rather stick to IE. SPREAD THE WORD PEOPLE!

Total Pledges:
462,097

I will,Firefox is the best web browser

its being released…did you watch the video?

I sent an E-mail to about 15 people and I’m getting them to forward it to as many people as they can…Firefox is a great browser and it deserves a world record!

Just your opinion as there is no best browser, just what’s best for you.

yer ok i think firefox is the best browse for me.

god.. read the comment that i had replied to the first time he said that it was already realesed, its not its only in beta.

I’ll participate and try FF3 out but I wont be using FireFox as my main Browser. I’ll see what new and cool stuff it has. I use Safari (on Vista) and it works great for me.

i pledged to see how good it is. If it is better than safari on my penryn ‘book here then i’ll use it otherwise i’ll prolly delete it.

firefox rocks!

TOTAL PLEDGES:
481,793

firefox is cool

AVG 8 free edition reached the 75,000,000 downloads last week on cnet downloads. It wasn’t on 24 hours, but that’s an impressive number.
I have the 3.0b5 of firefox and has a little trouble with flash video. I’ll pledge today.

I use Firefox and must state that i hate I explorer

Already have FF! Anyone need a Book on Mosaic?? Yes I did say Mosaic! Ashame Netscape became such a dog and then died.

FireFox Rocks!!

wtf at fireflock?

Uh, firefox is better than IE and Safari, your a twat if you dont know that.

Ive pledged ! Cant wait for firefox 3 !!

I downloaded the FF Bèta, but didn’t like it because of the interface, I rather have the classic buttons (so I hope we can change that issue).
What I did like is that it asks a lot less of your pc, giving you some extra power to do other things, cause I have a lot of applications open when surfing on the internet…

firefox 3 is better than Safari 3.

lol safari has worked better for me on my macbook so far…though it’ll be interesting to see how good FF3 is. I’ve tried some betas and it looks promising.

I have tried FireFox, but I found that I cant seem to use it on many of the websites that I use freaquently. I went back to IE7 which is not so much my favorite web browser either but I can not seem to find a browswer that is as wildly recognized as IE. Any suggestions?

downloads are going to take forever that day…hope the servers could hold up

Lol there is NO current record, Firefox is trying to make this a new record and secure 1.6mil downloads. I’ve pledged and advertised it everywhere I could find XD

slovenia has 3,757 g33ks :P
america has 84,869 g33ks o_O

i’m sorry guys but i have a hard time backing up firefox. Every time i download and install it. (i’ve tried 13 times on different systems) i end up getting tons of viruses within days. I thought it was suposed to be so secure?. I’ve been using ie on a few of my systems for years straight. (even my download computer) and have never had a virus to speak of on these systems.

that’s why you have a nice upgrade called IE tab, completely free, and wich allows you to open pages that only work with IE, like the microsoft web page :p

in a few words, is a disguise in order to deceive the web pages, and make them think you are actually using IE 6 or 7

clever ain’t it !? :)

FF3 is awesome, specially for JAVA and AJAX contents…sites with lots of Java/Ajax loads great in FF3, just try opening gmail in FF3 and see the difference

I’m going to try it. my sister uses Firefox, my dad uses Flock, and i use Opera. i just like Opera because its based on speed dial, but im think im going to try something new =) anyway im looking fowrard to download day!!!

IE doesn’t conform to standards that’s why I hate it.

I pledged :)

WOOT! AMERICA IS THE LAND OF THE GEEKS! ^_^ (I’m an american geek! HA! I should get a T-shirt that should say that!) I’M GONNA TELL MY WHOLE SCHOOL ABOUT IT! ^_^

I can’t wait for Firefox 3 I hope they make thaat record!

At home in my macbook I use Sarari,
xp desktop-IE for somethings Firefox
Work-I use Maxthon2
Vista-Computer-Flock
Those are the web browsers that I use, I will pledge 100% and will make sure my parents pledge, because its time to make the change over from IE or at least try new web browsers

Yeah alrready pledged, and will download it
I currently use firefox as my default browser on windows, scince I don’t have a mac, wich I really want (a macbook is all I ask for). I have used Safari just one time, I really wouldn’t know wich one to use if I had a mac tough.

Let’s set the Fox on Fire!

I’m really digging FLOCK, but still use Firefox (same thing almost/ same engine) on occasion. Def will download it on Download Day!

Although I was aware of its existance and origin, I was unaware of such a record attempt until reading this blog entry and am kind of excited about its official release and Mozilla taking its well deserved place in the Guiness Books as well as the history books.

Given my magnetism for OSS and Mozilla products, I am certain to be one of the many downloading the web browser (Allowing they have enough bandwidth). It should be interesting to see Microsoft’s desperate response to this version of Firefox, after all, I found IE7 wanting.

Sorry:(

Firefox 3 (H)

Fire Fox is the best browser I’ve used to date. I can’t wait for the new version to become available.

i just pleged minutes ago. may i ask a question? when is the download day?

cooooooooool, firefox 3, man it is quite a good browser, defintely looking forward to when it’s released

I dumped FF a couple weeks ago. I used it for over a year, however, I never did like the way it slowly gobbles up RAM during the day for no good reason. The result is that I found it necessary to reboot at least once during the day.
I am now back with IE7 and haven’t rebooted in severak dats and it just keeps chugging along.

I am looking forward to IE8 when the completed Browser is released. No, I do not mess around with Beta’s…. or even RCx if possible.

I pledged.
and to comment on Safari
Safari may be small, lightweight, fast, and standards compliant (passed both Acid2 and acid3 tests in webkit builds)
But, you can’t use PayPal on it, because as far as PayPal is concerned, Safari is in the same category as IE4 when it comes to security, due to lack of phishing filter and validation features.

Chris Pirillo World?s Best MySpace Profile Page It?s a Free Computer! Do you Have eBay Seller or Buyer Accounts?Are you Participating in FireFox Download Day 2008?What did you Want to be When you Grew Up?

Yes I will be part of the great firefox download day. I hope the servers can handle all of downloads taht day.

Pledged!

Why are there so many mindless sheep that like Safari??? What do you Safari zealots have against add-on support? Try these add-ons and see if you can go back to Safari: FireGestures, Weave, AdBlock Plus, Web Developer, Download Status Bar, Gmail Notifier, Stylish, DownThemAll, Firebug.

[...] should post about it here… Watch a video about it (from before the actual day was announced): http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/05/30/…load-day-2008/ [...]

FF3 is going to kick ***! Used to hate it, now it’s my only drug. IE8?? Off the pipe, you suckers. I used to like IE because of its leniency as a browser… you could do most anything you wanted with CSS and XHTML…….. However it NEVER looked the same on any other browser. IE lovers, I would respect your opinion if your choice at all supported current web standards. How many of my fellow web developers here have a single site that doesn’t have a CSS/JS script dedicated to IE workarounds? How long did it take you to come up with those workarounds? ARGH!

Firefox is the best!! Have been using it for years, maybe since 1.5 ?? I have use IE of course, Opera, Flock, Avant (uses IE engine) and Maxthon. For me nothing out there compares, and 3 is supposed to be better than ever. Definitely downloading today.

I think this design works better for me.

Oh and as far as did I participate? Ohhh yeah, when the site finally loaded >.<! And which is best, Firefox 2, IE 7, or Firefox 3? I would say FF3, but I think it was rushed.
