USING THE WIKIPEDIA FIREFOX EXTENSION MAKES IT EASY TO EDIT THE SITE!!!
Firefox offers a variety of features like the tabbed browsing, spell checker, live book marks, an built-in download manager, and a search system that includes Google.
The user can customize Fire fox with downloadable extensions, themes, and advanced preferences.
The developers of Fire fox intended to produce a browser that just surfed the web and delivered the best possible browsing experience to the widest possible set of people.
Fire fox provides an environment for web developers in which they can use built-in tools or extensions.
One of the most popular features of Fire fox is its support for add-ons. These include Themes for the browser, but also extensions like Source Editor, Grease Monkey, and the IE Tab which make particular tasks easier, and improves browsing experience, and makes it more interesting.
So the question that comes up is…. what is the Firefox extension all about?
James Hall wrote a useful Firefox extension called Googlepedia. It displays a relevant Wikipedia article along with your Google search outcome. It also creates links in the Wikipedia article for other Google searches, making it a very useful tool.
According to the authors of the Wikipedia, extension makes editing of Wikipedia pages easier by adding a new toolbar to your browser and by providing new menu items in the context menu.
Firefox is a great software package, but what makes this open-source browser so special is the ability to modify it through extensions and themes to really make it your very own, special browser.
Session Manager is another extension, this useful function helps you manage your Firefox tabs. If you're a Web surfer who regularly visits the same sites every morning, all you need do is open the sites in separate tabs and/or windows, and then use Session Manager to save the session under a name of your choosing. After that, every morning start up Firefox and go to Tools > Session Manager, pick your session and all the windows and tabs open up just as you saved them.
Wikipedia Lookup Extension will search for any selected word from a web page in the Wikipedia information bank in the language chosen in your user preferences.
The site can be edited by the user and customized to his preference by using this Wikipedia extension.
If you want to download the Firefox extensions, and try it out, you can do so at the Mozilla update Web site.
Rather than giving the basic features and trying to make a profit out of it, Mozilla Firefox has taken a lot of effort to develop user-friendly features, which they have provided as add- on, and extensions in their software.
Thus, we see that the Mozilla community’s aim has been to develop user-friendly software where even the most insignificant requirement of the user is taken care. This is one of the main reasons for its popularity.
By allowing access to their core code for any developer to improve on, shows how positive and large hearted the Mozilla community is. Switching over to the Mozilla Firefox web browsing software has indeed been a pleasure for millions of people around the world.
The Wikipedia extension especially is a very useful feature which provides the user with convenient options
