Yesterday I attended the Firefox 3 release in Tokyo. Gen Kanai (Mozilla marketing manager) invited me and Danny to the event. Unfortunately Danny could not attend but Francesco and Peter came with me. We had a great time meeting all kinds of people and eating really good food. Here there is Gen Kanai‘s smile after the launch, I guess he has been working really hard lately and now he is very happy with Firefox 3 success.
What you can see behind Gen‘s head is a screen showing Firefox 3 downloads all around Japan. I recorded a video that shows how Firefox 3 was released and in seconds people all around the country started downloading it. I specially like the bursts around Tokyo and Osaka area.

Where can I get one of those firefox plushies!!!! kawaii!!!
Heh, Big budget open source party.
those pictures make the event… kinda… not exciting? was that music playing at the event or was it added because it feels like a somber funeral dirge. reminds me of logan’s run.
gb: the music is made automatically when someone downloads Firefox. Is like “Toshio Iwai”‘s style music-performance.
good looking party. I wish I could have attended ^_^
woah the plushie is cute! I want!
You seriously get to go to some of the coolest events! I’m terribly jealous!
Anyway, keep up the posts! I love seeing pics from all the awesome events.
