Firefox 3 is released today! Download Firefox 3 today and help set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours. I'll be responsible for two downloads, one at home and one at work.

Note: Today is June 17th - Dowload Day - but Firefox 3 is not available to download at this very moment that I'm posting this. Stupidly, somebody decided that "Dowload Day" shouldn't start until 10:00am Pacific Time, so not until 1:00pm Eastern Time. Huh? Who thought 1:00pm was a good idea to start a 24 hour period? Last I checked, a day starts and ends at midnight.

In any case, download and install Firefox 3 later today when it's actually available.

Update 8:34pm
Wow, what a huge disappointment. Aside from the 1pm start time, Firefox had major problems where nobody could download anything for hours. When the site came online again, if you clicked on the "Download Firefox 3" button it initiated a download of the older version 2.

So far it looks nice but since half of my add-ons and customizations don't yet work with version 3, I can't even surf the way I want to yet. Now I have to re-customize it again.
