New Google extensions for Firefox
The extremely popular web browser Firefox already has many easy to use modern features by default. And there are a lot of additional extensions that make Firefox even better. Google released three extensions of their own yesterday:
- Google Toolbar: among other things it brings spellchecking, automatic fill out for forms and translation
- Google Send to Phone: enables you to send short text messages of web page content to your mobile phone (unfortunately limited to US numbers only)
- Google Suggest: completes your search terms as you type them into the search box located to the right of the address bar
If you are still using some old and insecure browser like Internet Explorer be sure to check out Firefox and extensions for it.
