By welcoming a new year, we remember one year ago how was the firefox project, the number of great extensions, themes and plugins that have been developped during this year… The effort of the SpreadFirefox which gone from a newspaper ad to a television ad, more innovative marketing ideas which is giving more success to firefox. But it’s not only about Marketing, firefox is already at its version 1.5, and a draft of what will be done for the version 2.0 have been already published.
In addition to the great extensions that have been created to add more power to Firefox. I’m trying to make a selection of the best extensions not based on their popularity but on their features and innovative ideas. I didn’t want to make a big list as much as more useful one.
