Version 3 of the multi-platform web browser Mozilla Firefox will be released on Tuesday 17th June 2008. The non-profit Mozilla Foundation is attempting to set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloads in 24 hours on Tuesday 17th June 2008, starting from 1pm local time.
Firefox v3 has several improvements, not just in features but in the speed of loading webpages. Check out this screencast of some of the features in Firefox 3 (http://people.mozilla.com/~beltzner/overview-of-firefox3.swf). There is also a Field Guide to Firefox 3 (http://www.dria.org/wordpress/archives/2008/06/12/655/) with many screenshots.
To help with the record, visit http://www.spreadfirefox.com/worldrecord and click on the red “Pledge Now” button. You will be asked to select what country you are from (and yes, Trinidad and Tobago is listed as one of the countries) and optionally your email address (for the Mozilla Foundation to keep you informed on Tuesday) and click the Pledge Now button. By doing so, you are pledging to download Firefox 3 on Tuesday.
As of 12:20pm, Tuesday 17th June 2008, Trinidad and Tobago has 740 pledges.
