How would you like to be able to use PayPal anywhere and everywhere, even where it is not accepted? At this point the PayPal people hope you are excited because that is what they would like to offer to you via a new Firefox plugin.
Once you get it up and running, a window should come up when you visit a web site asking for your credit card information. With this new Firefox extension, you now have the choice to pay via a card that PayPal creates for you or you can generate a card manually through a drop down menu.
Some of the other features include:
Use Secure Cards to shop anywhere online
Save and print your receipts
Enter addresses with 1 click during checkout
Avoid fraudulent web sites
Check your balance right from your browser
Only downside is this add-on is only for Firefox 2 right now. I am sure it won’t take long for them to get it updated for Firefox 3 when the time is right.
To pickup the new Firefox PayPal Plug-in, you must login to your PayPal account, and then there should be a link to click on your left to “Use PayPal even where it is not accepted”. Hopefully in the future, they will put this in an easier place to access. All in all though, great idea if you are a heavy PayPal user.

I’m back to using FireShot. This extension that allows you to take screenshots of what is inside your browser window enticed me to no end when it first came out - but with it’s lack of features I had to let it go. Here is a little more about the extension just in case you missed it the first time around…
What is FireShot and Why Do I Need It?
FireShot is a Firefox extension that creates screenshots of web pages. Unlike other extensions, this plugin provides a set of editing and annotation tools, which let users quickly modify captures and insert text and graphical annotations. Such functionality will be especially useful for web designers, testers and content reviewers.
Some of these newest features include:
- Screenshot can be uploaded to server for resizing, commenting and blogging.
- Added Undo/Redo feature
- Added “Resume editing” option
- Line width can be specified
- Improved page extents detection mechanism (now supports GMail, E-Bay and other frame-based sites)
- Improved memory management routines and error handling messages.
- Added MS Outlook support
- Working folder can be set up and periodically erased.
As you can see there is even more to love here. More now than ever before! Give the FireShot extension another shot. It is the perfect compainion for anybody who works with screen grabs a lot.
