Cool little Firefox add-on

Archived in the category: Uncategorized
Posted by: Sara -

Dusty Wilson just released this neat little add-on to Firefox if you are a Sirius satellite subscriber: Sirius Player.

This is a really good first effort that lets you listen to Sirius in your main browser rather than in an external window. Right now though, I don’t know how often I will use it. I do listen to Sirius quite often, but I find myself listening to it in IE rather than FireFox because FF does not render the artist name or song title that is currently playing. The Firefox add-on is missing that also. This functionality is important to me because one of the reasons I listen to Sirius is to find new music so I like to know who and what I’m listening to.

It was a great idea and hopefully Dusty gets a lot of support for this. I’ll definitely be watching the progress of this one.

Thanks, I’m glad you liked it. I have a new version coming in the next several days that will fix a lot of the little obvious bugs/issues that I mentioned on the Firefox Add-Ons site. If you have any suggestions for features that isn’t already mentioned by me or someone else, please let me know via the Firefox Add-Ons site. I appreciate the support, it’s nice to know people like and use it.

Help me please…
I just installed Firefox 2.0, and all of a sudden, my username/password isn't being inserted in the signon window (it always was before). I tried the usual suspects–I did not mistakenly tell FF not to remember the password for this site; and I also tried the remember password bookmarklet, but all to no avail–FF will not ask me to remember this password. What do I need to do to get around this?
