Last week we learned how to install Firefox2 and how to change the theme to something more appealing to your eyes. This week we start down the road of looking at different extensions educators can use within the program. Extensions are little programs that you can add into Firefox that give it more functionality. Again, it is these extensions that really give Firefox the edge over Internet Explore in my book. This screencast looks at using the del.icio.us extension. A must have if you use more than on computer. You love your bookmarks right? What if you could have all your bookmarks on any computer you happen to sit down at. Whether in Bali on vacation or at home or at school. What if your bookmarks followed you via the web? Welcome to the wonderful world of del.icio.us!
