Firefox Download Day was a bad idea

I knew it. I should never have fallen into this.

First the servers were so overloaded the site was slow as hell.

Then I downloaded 3 times the package and every time the version note page was telling me I had downloaded the Firefox 3 Release Candidate. I guess the page was not up to date.

Finally, it’s damm ugly.

Can’t wait to change the default theme. But it seems everybody’s trying to do the same and I can’t load any theme.

It’s so annoying I would cry.

On top of that, the French lost at Euro 2008.

Tomorrow will be a brighter day.

I was one of those guys that said, let me wait until the dust settles and then I will download this thing. I am happy I waited, but yes tomorrow will be a better day. The worst is over.

Well, I guess there are lots of excited people downloaded the latest version to see the what’s new with FireFox and of course for the sake of record. And goos thing, I’m not the eager, until now I was not able to download the new version.

Pour l’Euro, je n’ai pas d’opinion, mais pour Firefox, c’était la bonne chose à faire ! Il fallait du buzz pour que le grand public voit que les logiciels libres ne sont pas utilisés que par une minuscule communauté de barbus à tee-shirts bizarres.

Le buzz sur le Guiness + le buzz sur le crash des serveurs, tous les attachés de presse en rêvent ! Donc, même si ça n’a pas été parfait pour toi, ce qui me désole réellement, tu as participé à la démonstration du refus du monopole d’IE. ;)
