The market share of Firefox vs. Internet Explorer
,----[ Quote ]
| In short, among techies, IE was used 52 percent of the time and Firefox
| either 32 percent or 43 percent. The higher percentage was at W3Schools.com
| and chances are that their users are more technically inclined than those at
| Javatester.org. Among a more general audience of web users, IE scored 62
| percent and Firefox 26 percent.

Quote for the day:
"To me, Bill is the great white shark that looks at minnows with no more
consciousness than we look at a plate of food. The shark has no soul. The
shark knows no boundaries. All it has is an appetite. When the shark gets
hungry, it thinks “I’m hungry”, so it eats."
--Mitch Kertzman, former CEO of Sybase

| The record is 15,067,570 downloads (15 Million). Country wise, USA tops the

| relatively small countries like Iran and France clocked more downloads than
| its larger counterparts like India and China.

| If you are one of the people who downloaded Firefox on June 17th, then
| congratulations !!; You are a part of the Guiness Book of World Records. And
| the people at Firefox are ever too grateful to forget your valuable
| contribution.

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.
