Mozilla Firefox 1.0 Released

The day has come. Download your copy today.

Want to see something cool? Looks like Google and the Mozilla Foundation are cooperating on something.

Update: Turns out if you have a / after firefox in the URL, Google chokes on it. Link fixed above.

    The new start page is cool. Reminds me of the Netscape/Infoseek start page in NS3 :)

    That’s why it looked so familiar! I thought I had seen something like that before in a Netscape release.

    Hmm… I don’t see what you’re referring to. Did there used to be something there?

    Wow, perhaps Google was getting slammed too hard and they took it down?

    Looks like you have to leave out the trailing slash, e.g. http://www.google.com/firefox

    Ok that is odd. What’s the difference between no slash and a slash after firefox?

    Link should be fixed now.

    There’s nothing wrong with the page in question. It’s just that it’s not a directory, as was implied by appending a `/’ in the URL in the post.

    Thanks Tom, makes sense.

    Firefox turns gold
    Firefox 1.0 was just released a just hours ago. Because of the heavy traffic, I cannot access of release note yet. So I can’t tell what the new changes are. But from what I observed, there is no obvious change from 1.0RC2.

    The news is now spreadin…
