To make your browser and user environment more friendly, Firefox provides you with some add-ons. Below I speak about some add-ons that are considerably most wanted for the Web 2.0 people. Just check them out! :)

Stumble Upon Toolbar

Stumble Upon is one of the most wanted content sharing and social networking websites today. The Stumble Upon toolbar allows you to "stumble" random sites and make them popular if you like them just by clicking the "I like it!" button. You can stumble through videos, photos, news, friends' favorites and even websites. You can share the content or website with your friends using the "Share" button. Other than this you can make a collection of your own favorites, say Stumble Bookmarking, that can be viewed anytime on your Stumble Upon homepage.

FIREFOX CROSSES ONE BILLION DOWNLOADS : FACT OR FICTION


I was just going through some Technology news content on Yahoo! and what did I find- Firefox crosses 1 Billion downloads (article indexed from PCWorld). I just wondered how this could ever happen, because it was not more than around a week ago that I posted on Firefox crosses 50 Million downloads mark. It made no sense that the people around the world are now downloading Firefox at a rate greater than a rate at which they were downloading it the were downloading it at the time of its launch. So I tried to figure out the point in it.

FIREFOX 3.5.1 CROSSES THE 50 MILLION DOWNLOADS MARK



It was not past a fortnight that the Mozilla Corporation released the patched version of its latest version of Firefox 3.5 series and today, the company sees a huge 50 Million downloads all over the world. Mozilla Corp. patched Firefox 3.5 to fix some security vulnerabilities in its TraceMonkey JavaScript Engine.

The download statistics of the browser have been placed in a Worldwide Real-Time Firefox Download Statistics web page. The US hosts greatest number of Firefox Downloaders accounting to approximately 20% of the net downloads. Following the United States are Germany, Brazil, France, United Kingdom, Russian Federation, India, Japan, Poland and Italy.

These statistics are a live proof of the fact that Firefox is gaining a lot of authority in the browser world. The open-source project has seen a growth of leaps and bounds in the past years beating the growth rate of IE and other major releases ruling the markets.
