Firefox 3 Makes It Into the Guinness Book of World Records
Hoorah! It looks like with your ample help, Firefox 3 made it into the prestigious pages of The Guinness Book of World Records, as was their goal. Mozilla's achievement is in the most downloads on a 24-hour period: 8,002,530!
If You're Finding Firefox 3's Awesome Bar Not So Awesome. . .
I can't say enough good things about Firefox 3 — it's extremely fast, has an intuitive interface and uses much less memory than Firefox 2 (hence, fewer Firefox crashes). But, you knew it was coming, I cannot adjust to the "Smart Location Bar," or as others have been calling it, the "Awesome Bar." I don't want my location bar to suggest 12 bookmarks and URLs that resemble what I've previously visited when I type in a search — auto search is definitely not for me.
Did You Download Firefox 3 Yesterday?
The newest version of Firefox was released yesterday, and Mozilla pushed to hit their Guinness World Record goal — so hard that they overloaded their servers in the morning, as some of you experienced when you tried to download it.
I'd been using the beta version of 3 for a while, and now that my essential add-ons work (trust me, once you get used to them, Colorful Tabs and FoxyTunes are necessities), I'm loving how quick it is.
So did you download it yesterday and contribute to the big, geeky goal?

Geek Tip: You Might Lose Add-Ons With Firefox 3
This geek tip is coming to you from the school of hard knocks — after downloading the new version of Firefox 3 (currently in Beta) on one of my computers, I was dismayed to find all my add-ons were gone. I know, you're shaking your head and saying "duh!," but I thought I'd let my mistake be a warning to you. A warning will pop up that some add-ons are incompatible and it can check if there are newer compatible versions.

What to Expect With Firefox 3.1
On Tuesday, Firefox will be releasing its 3.0 "browser that has it all" which is said to include one-click bookmarking, the smart location bar and fast performance. The only major thumbs down rumblings I've heard is that it won't support Google Browser Sync like previous versions of Firefox. If you are a regular user of Browser Sync, there are said to be other sync products that work just as well.
