If I created an ILX Firefox extension, would anyone use it?

Say if I created a firefox extension, that with a click of a button, allows you to see the latest ILX posts in the sidebar, or a popup window, or something like that, would you use it?

If you made it Sean? Ha! No thanks. No offence but yr hardly the most trustworthy person to accept hand-coded widgetyjigs from.

You still think I made crappy bloated code objects? Hardly.

I'm still going to make it and publish it on mozdev though.

Entirely unnecessary when you can drag a live bookmark of the RSS feed into the toolbar.

Your assurance makes me definitely want to use it now, pisswad.

How could this be better than RSS feed?

THEN WHY DO YOU FUCKING ASK? ;-)))

Would I use it? Probably not. I don't even use the RSS feed or whatever it's called.

I had a live bookmark for ILE new answers but i somehow lost it and don't know how to get it back.

Hell, I might use it. I'm a sucker for extensions.

I use firefox, but I don't think I'd use a plug in.

Search plugins are so easy you can make them yourself. It's either under the profile (under %APPDATA% on XP) or the Mozilla Firefox folder itself . Take a look at the existing ones and you can pretty much guess how to make them.

The RSS Feed might be sufficient, but it just gives the link and post title. I want more.

YES, BUT ILX SEARCH IS USELESS WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO USE MORE THAN 1 FIELD AND THE OPTION BOXES ETC.

If you build it, they will come.

on the other hand most of my searches are simply title searches.

I would perhaps have some use for a Site New Answers RSS though

― El Tomboto, Friday, 11 July 2008 04:29 (seventeen years ago)
