the anatomy of a world record
Mary Colvig, who spearheaded the Firefox Download Day Guinness World Record campaign for Firefox 3, has a great blog post covering how it came about and how it all came together. Be sure to give it a read.

It's funny how Mozilla managed to break the record so apparently seamlessly at least as compared to the total failure that the iPhone activation nightmare seems to be. You guys should be really proud. You outstandingly surpassed Apple's reliability.

Please!
Never ever make a 'download day' again!
This is by far the most embarrassing campaign Mozilla ever made.

In what sense was it an embarrassing campaign??? Embarrassing perhaps for Opera or Microsoft or Apple... but for Mozilla? I think not.

There's no such thing as bad publicity... not until you're at the top, anyway.
