Firefox 3 "Download Day" sets Guinness World Record

Judgment on July 2, 2008:

The record is official, which the community correctly predicted. Paid out at S$100. --The Industry Standard

Original Prediction:

This is a prediction that Mozilla and Firefox 3 will be successful in their attempt to get a Guinness World Record set for the most downloads in one 24-hour period.

For this prediction to be judged a success two criteria must be met:
* Guinness must accept the attempt as an official Guinness World Record
* At least 3 million downloads of Firefox 3 must take place during "Download Day"

This prediction will close on "Download Day" and be judged approximately a week later when the results of the Guinness World Record attempt are made public.

From Mozilla's FAQ:

What is Download Day? Download Day is our attempt to set a world record for the most software downloads in 24 hours and will occur on Firefox 3 launch day.

When will we find out if we’ve officially set the record? This will take approximately a week after our attempt date. Our judges and Guinness World Records™ need to review our download logs and validate our record attempt.

Do we have to reach a specific number of downloads in order to set the record? This is the first record attempt of its kind so there is no set number. We'd really like to outdo the number of Firefox 2 downloads on its launch day, which was 1.6 million. Let's shoot for 5 million--the sky is the limit!

Will I be able to find this record on the Guinness website or in the printed version of the book? We hope so! Guinness World Records™ receives many record attempt requests and can't accommodate everyone. Let's catch their eye by working to make this a spectacular record with millions of downloads and great, zany Download Fests.

(Ed. Note: The prediction close date was adjusted due to Mozilla's announcemnt that Download Day is June 17, 2008.)
