Mozilla Firefox 3 just got released. Download it this morning even if you don't install it, if only so they can set a new record for the most downloads in 24 hours.

I heard that their servers were down for a while, and am not sure if they made their "world record." But the good news is that Firefox 3 is fabulous. Tons of very cool features. Not just snazzy stuff, but real, usable enhancements that improve productivity, bookmark management, and more. I usually wait for bugs to settle out but it's been through a huge beta and seems well tested so I jumped in (for my home machine -- at work, I will let it soak for a week or three).

I've been running FireFox 3 for a day or so. Biggest improvement that affects me is its memory footprint. FireFox 2 regularly consumed RAM at a voracious rate (easily getting to 600+ Meg after a day of browsing). FireFox 3 is staying at a more 'reasonable' 100 Megs. I put 'reasonable' in quotes because my hair is gray and to me 8 Meg of memory is a heck of a lot. As my son says to me: "Dad, did they have the electric light when you were born?" -- Kevin

Firefox 3 is way cool , and so is Mozilla Seamonkey, for those of you that want a full featured browser with POP3 email.
