It's been in the making for three years, so there are, between Firefox 2 and Firefox 3, there are more than 15,000 changes, so it's, I mean, it's a really completely new version.


What we do is we store, we store locally your navigation history and we enable you to search through this navigation history and find information very quickly. And so nowadays that the big, you know, news is about Obama, so I am going to go there and search for Obama. I start typing Obama, I have many web pages on our list, so I have tons of suggestions about Obama. But I remember this was something that appeared on sky.com and so this is it: I type Sky on top of Obama and then I get a list of pages and it was also a bit about Clinton and there we are. I can select this and I, I see the article that I was, I was visiting before but I couldn't remember the address. I didn't bookmark it per se. It's just that, well, because I visited sometimes ago, it's now showing up. This happens to be an interesting page, so I'm going to bookmark it with a single click here. There it is. With a click on the star, I can bookmark it.


If you visit spreadfirefox.com, you'll see you have the ability to help us establish a new Guinness World Record. And as you can see, if you zoom 1 on the Europe, you'll see that, well, UK so far has pledged 2 to download 30,000 visit, times the browser 3, France is at 40,000. You can't let us French... Oh, the French are beating us. Come on, serious with it. Oh, yeah, yeah. And you know what, Poles are even better, they're getting close to 60,000.


The way we make money is that, by default 4, when you go to the Firefox homepage, you are taken to a website, which in this case is google.com. And we have a partnership 5 with Google, so that if you use it, they make money, and, we'll, we'll get a little tiny share of this money. Same here for the search engines that we offer here, Yahoo and Amazon UK and Google UK also have partnership with us.
