Firefox Add-ons

Add-ons are small pieces of software that add new features or functionality to your installation of Firefox. Add-ons can augment Firefox with new features, foreign language dictionaries, or change its visual appearance. Through add-ons, you can customize Firefox to meet your needs and tastes.

For the last few years I have working with Mozilla and Briks to create some cool add-ons for developers and users. Here is a selection of the add-ons I helped develop:

• The official Mozilla Add-on Collector allows you to discover more of the best add-ons and organize your favorites in easy-to-manage collections. Subscribe to see how the collections you admire grow, and fans follow when you manage and update your own collections.
• The Mozilla Add-on Compatibility Reporter helps Mozilla make sure your favorite add-ons get updated for upcoming Firefox releases by using this extension to report whether they still work or are having some issues with alpha and beta releases. Note: Recommended for alpha and beta users only!
• Seismic Shaker rattles your browser window whenever a strong earthquake occurs near you. This add-on won the “Most Creative New Add-on” prize at the Mozilla Summit 2010.
• Facebook’s Toolbar for Firefox integrates your Facebook life into your browser.
• Microsoft’s HTML5 Extension for Windows Media Player Firefox Plug-in is an add-on that enables Firefox users to play H.264-encoded videos on HTML5 pages by using the built-in capabilities found in Windows 7.
• Frogger was one of my all time favorite arcade games. Froggr brings the fun to Firefox. Ideal for a sneaky game at lunchtime.
• Xultris is a variant of the computer game classic Tetris.
