new browser from the Web wizard that got it started. The book's
author, Blake Ross, began developing Firefox as a teenager. Once
available to the world, the simple and powerful tool was an instant
hit claiming a sizable share of the Web browser market with over
140 million downloads.
* In this book Blake not only gives you the lowdown on how to use
Firefox for safe Web searching, but he also shares his insight into
how the product came to life. It's a combination of practical tech
insight and a good story that is rare in computer books.
* Topics covered include downloading and installing Firefox,
creating a home page, searching with Google, creating customized
themes and toolbars, using tabbed browsing, downloading and saving
files, maintaining security and privacy, eliminating annoying
popups, and adding Firefox extensions.
Blake Ross discovered computers when he was 4 and hasn't had time to eat since then. He began working at Netscape at 14 and cofounded the Firefox project two years later to make the Web easy to use for plain old human beings. He also cofounded the SpreadFirefox.com community evangelism project, which has changed the face of software marketing and distribution. Blake was featured on the cover of Wired Magazine in early 2005, and he has since been featured in dozens of international publications and television shows to promote computing simplicity. He is on leave from Stanford University, where he is an undergraduate. Blake is currently working on a new project with some of the original Firefox team.
