Spread Fedora GNU/Linux Web Site Launched

Migration to Fedora

Every time when user wants to try something different, many unanswered questions raised. Is is good? Why should I migrate, I am satisfied from my operating system now. Could I lose data on my computer? Is it possible just to see that thing and if I like it I would give it a try? Yes, now it is possible. Take a virtual migration tour with screenshots in just a few clicks. Do not try anything until you liked it! When you are completely sure about that, then you would migrate on real.

Like Spread Firefox, but Spread Fedora instead. Recent: How Can We Harness the Firefox Effect?

Three things are striking about the recent launch of Firefox 3. First, the unanimity about the quality of the code: practically everyone thinks it's better in practically every respect. Secondly, the way in which the mainstream media covered its launch: it was treated as a normal, important tech story – gone are the days of supercilious anecdotes about those wacky, sandal-wearing free software anoraks. And finally – and perhaps most importantly - the scale and intensity of participation by the millions of people who have downloaded the software in the last week.

Guiness World Record Certificate in your name - Firefox 3

The record is 15,067,570 downloads (15 Million). Country wise, USA tops the list with a whooping 4 million + downloads. Surprisingly, sans the US, relatively small countries like Iran and France clocked more downloads than its larger counterparts like India and China. If you are one of the people who downloaded Firefox on June 17th, then congratulations !!; You are a part of the Guiness Book of World Records. And the people at Firefox are ever too grateful to forget your valuable contribution.
