Hey fellow Firefox fanatics! I am sorry it has been so long since my last Web Development or Technology related entry. The dead air stops now! I will be making at least 2 entries every week so hopefully some of you will actually start commenting again instead of hiding behind the bushes.
I was actually forced to write this entry because I was so overwhelmed by all of the changes and improvements that have been made to nearly all of my favorite extensions! Basically many of my postings here are no obsolete. Thanks Developers! With that said I believe it is time to start anew.
I am going to start out by talking about Coolirus 1.10! If you haven’t tried this than you are just missing out. This new version is simply amazing! The old version allowed you to scroll through images but the new version lets you scroll through videos from Hulu, You Tube and many others. You can even log into Hulu through the Coolirus system!
Coolirus 1.10 also lets you even scroll through games if you like. You see these games in a scrolling 3-dimensional wall. it is hard for me to explain it and the images are not going to do it justice. You just have to try it… trust me on this. If you liked the old version than you will love this one. If you didn’t like the old version than you will still love this one!
Here is the Description taken right from the Firefox website:

I hope everyone finds this extension as useful and entertaining as I do. Please check back in a couple days for my next review which will be on the new version of SpeedDial! I will also be talking about some extensions that you may not know about but you just may end up not being able to live without them!
