Firefox Download Day 2008

From Download Squad-
“Mozilla is attempting to break a Guinness World Record for the most downloads in 24 hours with its upcoming Firefox 3 release.

‘Download Day’ is nothing new for the Firefox crew, and it's really a great way to spread the word to the world about software. Sure, people can download things whenever they want, but there's something cool about all doing it at once...it's like Hands Across America. Except it has little to do with hands, and it's global. You get the idea."

The day has not yet been set - but if you pledge, they will email you the day of and you can snag it then.

I pledged and will download Firefox 3 when it comes out. :)

I pledged just to see how long the download would take

There is going to have to be a huge amount mirrors for this effort.
