Default Firefox Crosses 500 Million Download Mark

Congrats to the whole Firefox team for hitting the 500 million downloads mark. While it wasn’t a “goal” or anything, hitting the half billion mark is definitely reason to celebrate.

It's an arbitrary but interesting milestone for the open-source Web browser, whose development is overseen by Mozilla but that's also developed and extended by a large number of outside programmers. In September 2007, Firefox crossed the 400 million download mark, indicating an average rate a bit shy of 20 million per month at present.

Impressive, although not necessarily that amount of users and still a bit behind IE (according to w3schools anyhoo)...just wish more businesses would try it.
