If the recent WordPress birthday party got you excited and ready for some fun, prepare yourself for the next big launch. Firefox will launch their new version 3 this coming Tuesday 17th June.
It took 34 months of active development, 5 beta versions and 2 RC’s to get to this very moment. Hailed as the best browser in the whole wide world of the web, Mozilla’s creators have found mercy with us lowly Internet users and decided to finally put our minds at rest.
They take their development quite serious too if we are to believe their statement. Upon asked when the new version will be released they coolly say “when it’s ready”. Oh well, let’s hope that the long wait will be worth it after all.
For some reasons I do believe it will. I suppose it does take quite some work to make sure everything is compatible and enough feedback has been received to iron out the bugs before releasing version 3 to the masses.
So if that takes your fancy, you can host your own Mozilla party or attend one in your neck of the woods instead. So far there has been a lot of interest in the community and the folks at Mozilla want to set a new record. The Guinness World Record for the Most Software Downloaded in 24 Hours.
To be part of this massive event, check out their party site.

Mozill, Netscape are all way better than IE. Yet IE is the de facto standard for browsers globally. It is so unfair
Sounds like a party!
Arrgh! I wish I could have been a part of the party!
Great browser, great news!
I can’t wait for the new version. I love Firefox and can’t image what improvements they must have made. Thanks for sharing, this is the first I’ve heard of Firefox 2.
