Firefox has seen a wave of new users recently and the number of active monthly users has increased by 30 million over the past two months. This interesting piece of information came straight from Mozilla, more specifically from the CEO of the Mozilla Corporation himself, John Lilly. According to ZDNet UK, this was confirmed by Mozilla Europe’s head Tristan Nitot as well.

The announcement came in the form of a tweet sent out by Lilly in which he boasts that the web browser has been doing great for the past eight weeks attracting 30 million new monthly users and bringing up the total to around 330 million. This isn’t an exact measurement as Mozilla does a bit of estimating to arrive at the figure. Still, it is based on solid numbers, Firefox’s daily active users, which are now at around 113 million up from 103 million.
