Review
It's the favorite freeware Web browser packed with a pair of student-friendly add-ons. By now, Firefox is a prime force in the browser wars. It's easy to install, simple to operate, a snap to upgrade. Firefox features a collection of logical pull-downs, helpful function icons, and and easily-skinned interface. The program's help manual is novice-friendly with extra tips for Internet Explorer users.
So what's special about this Campus Edition? Fun and scholarship with FoxyTunes and Zotero. The former manages your iTunes installation from inside Firefox. FoxyTunes displays the current song, adds controls to pause, skip, and offers links to learn more about the music in your playlists. Zotero is the other side of the coin. The add-on offers dozens of tools to manage research. Bibliographic references, documents, notes, images, and other information is easily linked, stored, and accessed through Zotero. The app includes a very helpful online video tour and extensive program manual.
Sure, it would be easy to install Firefox and simply add these two apps. Firefox Campus Edition saves you a few steps and some search time. This application is for any student who likes to listen to music while doing a little Web research.
