Using ScribeFire to fire up TerenceOnline!

Terence Armentano | July 9, 2008 | 10:56 am

I just installed the firefox extension ScribeFire, which will allow me to write TerenceOnline blog posts directly from my Firefox web browser. This should make blogging more efficient and effective for me. It has a “blog this page” feature built into the browser that allows me to quickly and seamlessly make a blog entry about a web-page I am visiting. The Firefox web-browser is the killer app to get the most out of the internet and ScribeFire is just another tool in the FireFox arsenal to make it that much sweeter. If you are a blogger and want increase your production, give ScribeFire a try. This is my first post using the tool so hopefully it works well.

I help set a world record by downloading Firefox 3: the greatest web browser

Terence Armentano | June 18, 2008 | 3:50 pm

Check out this cool certificate I got from Firefox for helping them set a world record for the most downloads of a software app in one day. Firefox 3 is awesome and has tons of add-ons that you can download to make your browsing experience excellent. Plus, since it is open source, everything is free so don’t worry about forking over tons of money. I think it is time for people to put their Internet Explorer and Safari browsers to bed. But remember, the browser is only awesome if you know how to use it, so do some research on it and start customizing it to your needs. I’ll do some jing videos in the future of some cool add-ons that I use with Firefox.
