What Iran’s record of Firefox 3.0 downloads tells us

I should express my surprise of the record of Iranians who downloaded Firefox 3.0 on the download day (more than 500K) ( http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord ). Being suspected on bot manipulation is no more easy to insist on without any valid reason for this suspicion , actually I think we may think more seriously about a crawling but effective population of enthusiastic and tech-savvy internet users in Iran. This is what we should consider as an important business and social fact.
