Mozilla Corporation, today announced the 'Extend Firefox' contest to encourage development of extensions to the Firefox web browser.

The company says that extensions are small add-ons that add new functionality to Firefox and can be anything from a toolbar button to a completely new feature. The contest is expected to generate hundreds of new extensions for Firefox, allowing people to further personalize their web browsing experience and make surfing the web more convenient. Developers can tap into the Mozilla Developer Center (MDC), which will be hosting the contest, to find resources and pointers to help create extensions for Firefox.

The panel of judges include Aaron Boodman, software engineer and creator of GreaseMonkey, Google; Brendan Eich, CTO, Mozilla Corporation and Jeremy Zawodny, technical lead, Yahoo!.

Mozilla, with the companionship of Alienware and O'Reilly & Associates, will give away the prizes to the contest winners. T -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
