Why I love the Firefox browser
That would be Mozilla’s Firefox Browser. A free download, or freeware or whatever it’s called. Here’s a few reasons why I love Firefox so much more than Internet Explorer.
Tabs, for one. So much more convenient than having ten different windows open.
It has a very effective pop-up blocker, and anti-virus protection. Virtually (if not actually) no spyware.
But this, is the best. Type in the browser address bar: “University Minnesota MFA” and bam! Faster than Emeril with cajun peppers you’re at the University of Minnesota’s Creative Writing MFA program’s website. Immediately. Want, say Dorianne Laux’s email address because you’re visiting University of Oregon’s campus and wanted to meet her while you’re touring the place. Type in Dorianne Laux Oregon and right there you have UOregon.edu’s information, office phone number and location, email etc. Looking for the phone number for Beyond Baroque? don’t even worry about any .org or .com or whatever, type in “Beyond Baroque” and the website comes up, phone number right in front of your eyes.
And Firefox is living in an online world. Click on an email link and it pulls up your gmail account instead of that silly, silly Outlook.
