Description:
Follow in the steps of StumbleUpon and del.icio.us! By creating extensions, you can establish a constant presence, even when users aren't at your site. Attendees will learn how to integrate a Firefox extension with a web service, best practices, and great resources for going beyond the presentation.

This one sounds really interesting. Having a firefox extension is the only reason I use some websites, so it would be a good idea to add one to some of the things I am creating.

I'm interested in learning more about developing for FF. This will be useful for some projects I'm working on.

immediate gratification through browser integration of ui elements on a site is the way to go these days. i've personally worked with tim and heard bits of this presentation, and i gotta say i can't wait to see the final presentation.

Thanks to everyone for the comments. I'm super psyched about this presentation, and I've got a few ideas for some demo extensions which I'll be releasing on my site in the run-up to the presentation. If anyone has questions directly for me, about this specific presentation or just extensions in general, you can comment on them here, or catch me via email tim-at-timrosenblatt.com

Developer or product, I would suggest that seeing a presentation on FF Extensions will be highly educational - at a min, will definitely spark some creative thoughts for your own products/services. Having worked with Tim on an extension, clearly he knows the topic inside and out. Can't wait to see the demo extensions!

Firefox extensions could prove to be a useful tool at work as well. I've always envisioned a Sam Spade-like FF extension for tracking down spammers and malware at work. I think this will be a great presentation!
Do it today!
