Firefox Launches Campus Edition
A rep for Firefox’s PR firm let us know that Firefox is set to launch Firefox Campus Edition later today. It’s essentially Firefox with a “back to school bundle� of add-ons:
Zotero – plugin for research and notetaking
StumbleUpon - the popular bookmarking tool.
Foxytunes – Control iTunes from the browser. Not sure about the educational benefits here.
It’s probably fair to say this is a marketing drive to get Firefox installed on student laptops before they head back to school. I can think of a few companies, however, who might have extensions more suited to productivity, and might be feeling a little left out of this particular bundle.
Once launched, the new version will be available at firefox.com/backtoschool.
