Mozilla Kicks Off "Extend Firefox" Competition

[mandy]

Mozilla Corporation today announced the Extend Firefox Contest to encourage development of extensions to the award-winning Firefox Web browser. Extensions are small add-ons that add new functionality to Firefox. They can be anything from a toolbar button to a completely new feature. The contest is expected to generate hundreds of new extensions for Firefox, allowing people to further personalize their Web browsing experience and to make surfing the Web even more fun and convenient.

Developers can tap into the Mozilla Developer Center (MDC), which will be hosting the contest, to find resources and pointers to help create extensions for Firefox. The contest also coincides with the launch of Firefox 1.5 – expected later this year – and developers are encouraged to take advantage of Firefox 1.5's new features.

It will be interesting to see what people come up with.

My favorite extention right now is the "Ebay Negs" - you right click on a eBay member's id and it takes you right to the link at toolhaus.org showing all that person's negatives and neutrals without having to go through your bookmarks to find the link to that site - so quick and easy.
