This is the coolest application I've ever seen in my life.

Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours - it’s that easy. We're not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

Way to go!

Joy and jubilation everyone, Firefox hit the 500 million downloads today! The spreadfirefox community is celebrating with lots of interesting activities and featured projects, such as raising 500 million grains of rice on FreeRice. That, says Mozilla, is enough to feed 25,000 people for a day.

It's been a very prolific year for Firefox, version 3 is on its way (and finally it's a fast browser), also Firefox reached more than 150 million active users that represent roughly 17% of internet market share.

While looking at my blog's statistics:

I noticed that roughly 25% of my visitors still use Internet Explorer. I will put it as simple and as clear as I can.

Don't do it.

Stop using Internet Explorer, seriously, it's bad. There's so much discussion and documentation on the topic that I find it pointless to list all the innumerable reason not to use it, so I'll just point out the a few sites that talk about the subject.

Thank you.

What happens when a Chinese website goes phishing Google's gMail? Well, if you happen to have Internet Explorer (or other closed-source browsers) and you're not familiar with phishing techniques then you'll probably accidentally send your precious gMail password to that nasty Chinese website.

On the other hand, if you have Firefox, something different will happen, I received a stupid email a few hours ago. According to this concorso.lampa@gmail.com (I figured there's many different version of this in many languages) I won a Google lava lamp. Unfortunately, instead of going to google server, it redirects to menorca.cn, which I figured it to be Chinese crap.

In just a few hours, the Firefox community reported the website as possible phishing, providing us with an alert message.

Not a bad response time, not bad at all. Take that, nasty Chinese website!
