Hello everyone,

I thought I'd take a couple minutes to talk to you about an addon created for Firefox (and Safari if you have a Mac or that browser!)
What it does is makes your image browsing a bit more exciting whilst online. Say for instance, a lot of us use flickr right? well if you happen to be browsing someones profile on there and you hover over an image, a tiny icon in the corner pops-up asking if you would like to launch Cooliris (Which comes up in a new browser tab rather than an entire window.)

From there, it'll display all the images from that person, it's also a really funky way of searching search engines for art and photos.

Example 1 of my profile on Flickr:

All you do from here is move your cursor over an image, click and it draws you closer to the image!

If you want to use the application to search for images for anything, here's an example:
Image
I typed "Full moon" into the search bar and chose the host I wanted to search (in this case it was Flickr) and all these popped up, trust me there were hundreds....at the bototm of the screen is that blue horizontal slide bar which will help you to navigate through the millions! There's that option or use your mouse to go through.

I hope this is a little fun addon for you to use, it works wonders if your looking for an easy way to look through images online without having to use the websites layout and navigation scheme.

NOTE: If you're perving through my browser...yes that's indeed facebook.....

This rocks, been using it for few years and this update lets you do it in the browser. Very cool stuff.

I love the way it works with Flickr. Search for image of type then click your Cooliris link and viola just scroll through all the pages of results in this nice gallery view.
