Firefox Extensions

Topics:

 So like SuperMatt, JB, and TigerLily, I too really like Firefox.  I initally switched to Firefox because of the tabbed browsing.  Also, I like using software that gets updated frequently…unlike IE6 which hasn’t been updated, besides a ridiculous number of security patches, since the release of Windows XP. 

Until this class I really didn’t use the “extensions” feature of Firefox.

“Extensions are small add-ons that add new functionality to your Mozilla program. They can add anything from a toolbar button to a completely new feature.”

The extension I found most useful for this class so far has been the del.icio.us extension.  Now whenever I find a page I want to bookmark, I just click the “Post to del.icio.us” button on the top of my browser and I’m taken to the posting page.  Check out all the different Firefox extensions p>
