Mozilla drops the ball with Firefox 3 launch
Today, Firefox planned to take a stab at getting into the Guinness Book of World Records for most downloads, with its launch of Firefox 3.0. I was one of over a million people who pledged to download it, largely to evaluate its Mac performance, since Google's apps are notoriously awful in the Apple browser Safari (as competitor Zoho has managed to squeeze much more sophisticated interaction out of JavaScript on all four major browsers, this problem is almost certainly on Google's end [insert snide comment about Google's recruiting habits]).
But disaster struck within 30 minutes: the Firefox download site went down.
Dear Mozilla: Take a lesson from the Bay's startups and forward thinkers, and jump on board with Amazon S3 next time.
