Mozilla Add-ons Collections in the News
Earlier this week the Mozilla Add-ons team released Add-on Collections, which enables anyone to create their own collection of add-ons that can be shared with their friends, posted on blogs, and featured on the Firefox Add-ons website. The news has gotten a lot of positive attention and feedback. Many people are excited to be able to more easily discover and share the wealth of Add-ons, enabled by Collections and a redesign of the Add-ons site.
Lifehacker’s Kevin Purdy discusses some of the benefits of Collections:
By creating a new collection, which you can make private or public, you basically create an up-to-date backup of your must-have Firefox extensions. For frequent re-installers, a good collection is going to be a must. For those looking to help out Firefox newcomer friends or keep a group of workers updated, it seems like a pretty nifty tool.
PC Pro and Beta News have even made their own Collections. Check them out!
