Web on Fire

Wow. The Mozilla Foundation set a goal of 1,000,000 downloads of Firefox 1.0PR in ten days. It only took four.

Now they want to see how fast they can reach 2 million.

It does make me wonder just what download numbers mean. I’ve downloaded it myself three times — once at work for Windows, then once each at home for Linux and Mac — and at some point I’ll need to download the Windows version at home. On the other hand, I installed the one copy I downloaded at work on at least three different computers. So the number of downloads is more than the number of people downloading, but less than the number of installations.

Get Firefox!
