Firefox 1.0 Launch Day
[Posted January 24, 2005 by cook]
Mozilla Foundation president Mitchell Baker has posted
a blog entry about the release of Firefox 1.0.
"
After a while the anticlimactic feeling faded as we began to get information about the number of downloads and the general reception of Firefox. As best we can figure it, around 1,000,000 people came to download Firefox on the first day alone. That's an astonishing number, far beyond what we had seen before. As Chris Hofmann put it, the building at the Mozilla Foundation might seem quiet, but the wires were burning up at Oregon State!"
