Today\u2019s faster Firefox provides upgraded features for all users"},"content":{"rendered":"

When our intrepid user research team goes into the field and observes Firefox users in the wild, they find that users have all sorts of creative solutions to do things that the browser doesn\u2019t already do, like email links and screenshots to themselves and others, as a way to get things done.<\/p>\n

We want Firefox to be the absolute best way to get things done, so we stuffed a ton of new features into today\u2019s release.<\/p>\n

Take, save, and share the web with Screenshots<\/b><\/h3>\n

The web is personal – often the site you visit, whether it\u2019s your social network of choice or a proposed travel itinerary with a funny ad on it, is not something that you can easily save or share. With Screenshots, saving and sharing the things you see online is as easy as a click.<\/p>\n

Screenshots started as Page Shot in Test Pilot<\/a> \u2013 a program that allows users to test drive potential new features for Firefox. The feature proved its worth quickly as we watched it become the most downloaded experiment in the history of Test Pilot<\/a>. To make the Screenshots experience even better, our team dedicated time to reviewing usability tests and event metrics to better understand how the feature was being used. With that in mind, Firefox Screenshots<\/a> allows you to take, save and share screenshots \u2013 all without leaving your browser.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n

First, Screenshots lets you capture a screen within your Firefox browser without downloading any new software. Either click and drag to grab the content you want, or because Screenshots is web aware, let Screenshots do it for you. \u00a0Just hover over the area you want to grab, let Screenshots automatically identify the outline of the area you\u2019re looking at, then click.<\/p>\n

You can choose the screenshots you want to save, and easily access your saved screenshots through a toolbar in your browser. Firefox automatically stores your screenshots in the cloud for two weeks, but you can change the expiration date or delete them anytime from your online library. You can also easily share your screenshots as a link with anyone, no matter what device they\u2019re on or browser they use \u2013 all without having to click or save before you share. Try it out and discover what our Test Pilots loved so much about the feature.<\/p>\n
