Why you should maybe wait before installing Firefox 3
In the end last night I (and probably another few hundred thousand people with me) could not get my hands on Firefox 3, so I went out.
I have just downloaded it now (it would be cool to set a record for number of downloads in 24 hours), but I will probably wait a bit before installing it because
- it is always recommended not to install just-released software straight away;
- some people I know are experiencing problems with Firefox 3;
- last time I checked, not all add-ons work with Firefox 3 yet.
If you have installed Firefox 3 and want to revert, you can download previous versions of Firefox.
I will probably download and install the Firefox 3 Portable Edition that can run alongside old versions, until I am sure I want to upgrade for good.
So yes, I went out last night. I never ever go out on a school night these days, so I limited myself to three pints, and yet I am not feeling too good this morning, but fortunately I am going to be staying later at work tonight because I have a Spanish class at 6.30PM, so I can go in later than usual. Ooh I'm rambling aren't I?
Yes, I was saying I went out. And had a very good time with Jonathan, David and Ian at Retro Bar. We saw Dave and Simon and took part in the weekly Pop Quiz.
I expect Jonathan to write about it on his blog today [update: he did]. I hope he does, because all I can remember is that our team came second with 18 out of 21 points. I cannot even remember the name of the team, apart that it was picked by flicking through a copy of Boyz and pointing randomly at some text.
Right then. Coffee, porridge, Nurofen Plus, shower, then off to work.
