Just in time for my return to university, Mozilla has released the Firefox Campus Edition, which comes with 3 essential add-ons for students:
- FoxyTunes is a personalized music aggregator which can be used to control any media player, and to collect music videos, lyrics, album covers, news and more;
- StumbleUpon lets you channel surf the internet to find websites and multimedia content based on your interests; and
- Zotero, an easy-to-use extension that helps you to collect, manage and cite your research sources.
Mozilla has also developed an extension called Biobar, a toolbar for browsing biological databases.

For Mozilla and Google, Group Hugs Get Tricky. To some extent it seems that the story is going to be relevant in a few years when Chrome will presumably be more of a full-featured browser.
Casual users might not notice much difference between Firefox 2.0 and
IE 7.0. But with continued use, the advantages of Firefox
become increasingly evident. This is especially true for
people who take the initiative to install a lot of extensions.
