 "If You Act Now" You Can Still Help Firefox 3 Set a New World's Record

Thanks to the redefinition of "Day" as "a 24-hour period" - and thanks also to the problems everyone in the world had in logging onto the Spread Firefox website yesterday, Download Day continues, with close to 7,000,000 downloads as of posting time.

Originally, Download Day was scheduled to start at 10:00AM PDT yesterday, and end 24 hours later. However, if you read yesterday's installment of "how to bring a website to its knees", you know that things didn't work out exactly as planned.

When The Bell Will Finally Toll

Now, you have until 11:16AM Pacific Time to download FF3 and help create the new Guinness World record. That's 12:16PM in Denver, 1:16PM in Chicago, 2:16PM in New York City, and so on, wrapping up at 3:16AM (where it's already tomorrow) in Tokyo.
