Firefox 3!

Download Day - English

image

Mozilla aims to set a Guinness Record today for the most number of downloads in 24 hours, for Firefox 3. The main site is expectedly down (such is the rush of Firefox enthusiasts!) and I had to turn to an Asian mirror, although I’m not sure if this would count towards the record.

Last year ended on the worst possible note. Dad had expired and I was numb with shock. The repercussions rippled halfway thought this year. Things were so abysmal initially that I had lost the will to live. Acrid in everything I did, I was immensely angered by time phlegmatically flowing through its cadence. It was as if Dad meant nothing to anybody. What right did people have to live the way they always had when Dad was no more? Why was much of the world still
