Firefox is a free web browser available for Windows, [[MacOS X]], and [[Linux]]. It has many features that other browsers don't, including pop-up blocking and tabbed browsing. Consider [http://www.mozilla.org downloading Firefox] if you don't already have it. If you have a Mac, also consider getting [http://www.caminobrowser.org/ Camino], a truly Mac OS X native browser using the Gecko engine (the same thing that's inside Firefox). It doesn't have all the extensions available that Firefox does, but it's more Mac-friendly and really a beautifully simple browser. For some extra features, check out [http://www.nada.de/mac/camitools/ CamiTools], a set of extensions for Camino.
Anyway, this page is dedicated to extensions and one-time procedures that will help you get the most out of Firefox.
==Emacs key bindings==
Emacs is a popular [[Unix ]] text editor with a bunch of crazy key combinations for moving the cursor. Some people are used to them. If you want to romp around text fields in Firefox with Ctrl-A and Ctrl-K and all the rest, check out [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Emacs_Keybindings_(Firefox)].
==Other extensions==
Some sweet ones are [https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=219 the iTunes add on] and [https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=398&application=firefox the Weather add on].
==Making Firefox Pretty==
Besides using a theme that suits your taste, you can also download [http://www.amake.us/software/firefoxy/ Firefoxy] for [[Mac OS X]], which will make the default ugly widgets slightly nicer. Alternatively, you can download [http://www.caminobrowser.org Camino], a [[Mac OS X]] native browser built on the same core as Firefox.
