How Can We Harness the Firefox Effect?
,----[ Quote ]
| Three things are striking about the recent launch of Firefox 3. First, the
| unanimity about the quality of the code: practically everyone thinks it's
| better in practically every respect. Secondly, the way in which the
| mainstream media covered its launch: it was treated as a normal, important
| tech story – gone are the days of supercilious anecdotes about those wacky,
| sandal-wearing free software anoraks. And finally – and perhaps most
| importantly - the scale and intensity of participation by the millions of
| people who have downloaded the software in the last week.

| Firefox 3 was released last Tuesday, June 17th. Part of our launch-day
| festivities included “Download Day 2008” where we asked for your help in
| setting a new Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in a
| single day. By the end of the 24 hour period, the unofficial count clocked in
| at more than 8 million Firefox 3 downloads! The Guinness judges still have to
| validate the record attempt, and the Spread Firefox team is standing by to
| announce the results when they’re available. Since then, another 10 million
| copies of Firefox 3 have been downloaded, bringing the total to over 18m in
| the first week.
