Firefox Search Plugins presentation

The recording of my Firefox Search Plugins presentation is now avialable for your viewing pleasure. Please be sure to run the participant wizard first if you have not done so previously.

Title: Firefox Search Plugins 02 December 2005
Archive ID: BCR_Training_2005_1202_1202_31
Description: The Firefox browser has a built-in search bar allowing users to search such databases as Google, Amazon.com and Wikipedia. What many don’t realize is that you can create customized searches that can be added to Firefox. This F³ session will walk you through the creation of a search plugin that, once installed, will allow your patrons to search your OPAC from within Firefox without having to access the library’s site first.

Check out this mashup featuring Queen and 50 Cent before a record company orders this one taken offline too. (I’ve not listened to it yet, but it’s on the iPod for tomorrow.)
