FireFox 3 Finally Released



Firefox 3 is finally available, which means you should go download it. They're trying to set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours, so if you're at work, go to everyone's cube and download FF. Even if your office computers are locked down and can't use FF, just download it anyway. If you're at school, in a computer lab, download it there too. Make your parents download it. Install Linux on your computer, dual boot, and download again so it counts twice. They're giving away free beer! Wait, not that Guinness? F this then.[Mozilla via ]World Record Page]

Lifehacker's got some more Firefox 3 coverage, with their power user's guide and the entire history of Firefox 1.0 to 3.0.

FireFox 3 has been released for a couple days now and some things I've noticed that are different than the the previous versions of FF:
-Bigger 'Back Button'. No more clicking something by accident.
-No more pop-ups asking for permission. These are now attatched to your taskbar out of the way
-Less memory usage (yay!)
-Description for websites in URL Bar
-Works on ANY system


Final Decision - The people of Gizmodo did not lie. Download it right NOW. A very nice upgrade of Firefox 2
