Are You Participating In The Firefox Download Day 2008 by webemerald(m): 3:20pm On Jun 02, 2008
lets join firefox in their mission to set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours! World Download Day is fast approaching. Will you pledge to help Mozilla reach its goal?

Currently only 109 people have pledged from Nigeria

LOL,

As a FF user going on 4 years, I wish many many more download it. There are so many neat tools that come with it, not to mention, it's the one that follows web standards the most.

A lot of sites in Nigeria look awful in FF. When asked, the developers in charge often resort to the "well, majority of Nigerians use IE" excuse forgetting that more often than not, websites (the ones that offer goods and services at least) aren't usually meant for where they are located but for those in far away countries and there is no telling what browsers they use. Last year, I believe 20% of the world's surfing population used FF and I pray it grows more and more.

Goooooo Firefox!

well as a designer/developer you got to do your best to make sure it all fits in Opera/Firfox/Crazy Broswer/Netscape/ including IE1-7

@all webmasters

@smartsoft is correct that designer/developer ensures that your sites must fit browser compatibility ERROR-FREE!!!

I consider myself a Firefox fan and I downloaded Firefox 3 too - not sure if my download fell within the timeframe to help set that record.
