Even thought they claim they are non-profit they still earn a lot of money from Google with every search made by users using firefox browser.

In this page i list most of the Mozilla applications that are been developped and that i have tryed in the past. Most of them are still been used by me thought. I will also list some applications based off mozilla but that aren’t opensource or from the mozilla foundation.

Let’s start with the Browsers stuff.

Mozilla Firefox

First of all i must say even the icon is appealing isn’t that cute? Anyway firefox is not only cute but is also heavily modifiable with Addons Module. Your a blog writer you have multiple blogs? Then use the extension scribefire. You want to keep track of your bookmarks online? Then use the del.icio.us addons. ( They are many others but del.icio.us is the most known )

With the new firefox 3.0 and up releases firefox have a smart query inside the navigation box if you input the name of a site that u already visited he will list similar sites with the name in the url or the title of that page. ( see below )

The browser offer security , anti-popup , themes , addons , extension and whats even more cool it runs on every Operating system. Mac windows or Linux In many different languages you can see for yourself here.

You can also get more details about the feature here.

Flock

Let me say flock is a copy of Firefox BUT heavily modify.

Flock is based on social and blogging and i must say it’s really awesome not only does it support most of the addons for firefox but it also outclass many of them for example the del.icio.us addon is useless under Flock you also don’t need to install a image uploader addons to social sites.

Flock make a priorities of Yahoo services instead of Google. Even thought Google have most of the awesomes services FlickR and MyBlogLog are owned by Yahoo.
