For a cause

..and a good one at that.

Mozilla is trying to get into the record books. And no, it’s not for maximum memory consumption by a web browser, nor is it most crashes during development. They want to set a record for most downloads for a software on its first day of release. We’re talking about Firefox 3.

I’m not gonna call is the much-awaited successor to Firefox 2, because if you’ve bothered to download the Betas, you wouldn’t have been missing out on much. Plus, it’s pretty clichéd! Well, to participate, you need to go over to the Spread Firefox page on the Mozilla site, and pledge yourself. Include your e-mail address if you want a reminder the day Firefox launches. Hey, it’s fun and it’s for a cause.
