MeasureIt - On Screen Rulers

Comments (2) · June 15, 2007 at 7:06 am · Firefox Usability

Need to do a little on screen measuring? If you have Firefox then the MeasureIt extension should do the trick.

As you can see it delivers a brain dead simple way of seeing how big that area of your screen is. I could see this tool being really helpful for web developers or anybody else that works with graphics on the Internet.

Firefox Got Your Back

No, I’m not talking browser ghetto slang, I am talking about the new project I found out about on Spread Firefox. It is a pretty neat concept. Here is how they put it, as I am afraid my explanation of it might confuse some.

Our page is set-up so that users can come and ‘fill in’ the Firefox logo by claiming a pixel. They can use their spot on the logo to express themselves and to shoutout to the world about anyone who has got their back.

Join in on the fun! I’d like nothing more than to bring these people a few more pixels in. Also see if you can find me (I’m the guy with the coconut and hammer) - and include as the guy that “told you” about Firefox. Just type in Mitch.
