Mozilla’s Firefox Wants To Get Social With The Coop.

Last week, Mozilla research group announced that is
currently developing a new set tools, called The Cop. According to Mozilla Labs,
The Coop is a Firefox addon in development that will let users keep track of
what their friends are doing online, and share new and interesting content with
one or more of those friends. It will integrate with popular web services,
using their existing data feeds as a transport mechanism.

Mozilla decided that it’s time for new tools. According
to The Coop project page, at
the beginning this product should minimally provide support for the following
use cases, making them intuitive, pleasant and delightful experiences.



1. Share a link with a friend.



 1. Share a
photo / set of photos with a friend.



 2. Share a
blog post with a friend.



 3. Share a
favourite video with a friend.



2. Keep up to date with a friend's web activity.

latest blog posts / LiveJournal updates / MySpace updates.



 2. See
