* Announced Tab Candy on Friday. Over the weekend we had: | |||
** 28 press articles, including dream headlines: "Firefox Just Perfected Tabs Browsing" from Techcrunch and "With FireFox's Tab Candy Feature, We'll Finally Achieve Tab Nirvana" from Gizmodo. | |||
** 3 million views of the video, with half a million watching all the way through. | |||
** Tens of thousands of tweets, with many saying they'll never look at another browser again. | |||
** 30k+ installs of the Tab Candy alpha build of Firefox. | |||
** Hundreds of feature suggestions and votes for them, not all of which say Opera did it first. | |||
** Dozens of direct emails, some of which expressing a desire to have babies with Firefox. | |||
* The Tab Candy team (especially Ian Gilman, Edward Lee, and Mitcho Erlewine) deserve all the credit for pushing long and hard to get Tab Candy this far. | |||
* Please do some dogfooding with our [http://azarask.in/projects/tabcandy/build.php Tab Candy build]. | |||
