    If you've been under a rock the past month, here's some reading material, and a place to "pledge":

    Firefox version 3 is releasing on June 17th, and they're attempting to set a new Guiness World Record for "most software downloads in 24 hours".

    If you're a Firefox user (like me), you'll be upgrading anyway, so why not be part of a record? :)

    Firefox ended up with an 8.3 million download total, beating its own goal by three million, despite some issues early on from massive bandwidth demands.
