Everyone reading this is running firefox, right? If not, click the link and install it.

Anyway, evangelism aside, I happened across a most excellent extension to firefox yesterday. Regular readers know I’m a huge fan of wikis these days, and over the past year or so mediawiki, the engine that powers wikipedia has evolved into one of the best wiki engines. Now someone has put together a firefox extension that enhances the process of authoring wiki content. It’s geared specifically towards wikipedia authoring, but some testing at work has shown it is helpful in other wiki engines, or at least with oddmuse, which we’re using at Skidmore. If you’re authoring wikipedia content, definitely give this a look, and even if you’re using another wiki engine it might be worth your time to check it out.
