Top 10 Firefox add-ons
,----[ Quote ]
| Add-ons or extensions are small pieces of software that can add new features
| or tiny tweaks to your browser. They can add niche search engines, change the
| look of your browser tool bar, block annoying pop-ups, preview links,
| organise your browsing history and do much more.
|
| Mozilla Corp, which recently set a world record with Firefox 3, recently held
| its annual competition that recognises the year's best Firefox add-ons.
|
| This year's contest focused on add-ons that took advantage of its latest
| open-source browser Firefox 3. Here's listing what Mozilla crowned best
| Firefox add-ons.

Firefox 3 is coming - is it everything we hoped for?
,----[ Quote ]
| While it can be said that there are no can't-live-without features included,
| the full package is a great improvement on Firefox 2. Mozilla have made a lot
| of changes and innovations to the application but it's unlikely that anything
| will strike the casual user and make him or her go "wow!". However, the speed
| of the browser and its handling of web applications could make it a winner
| and it looks like Mozilla has again raised the bar for Microsoft.

| Internet Explorer and Opera.

Firefox 3 is Worth the Upgrade!
,----[ Quote
| Sure, Firefox is algorithmically beautiful. The sad truth though is that 99%
| of people don’t appreciate this. What is appreciated is what you see on the
| screen. And in this regard, Firefox 3 does not disappoint either. The best
| improvement made was the adoption of native program controls in both
| Firefox’s controls, and in actual websites. What does this mean? Take a look
| for yourself.
