As a long time Firefox fan, I was excited to hear about the release of Firefox Campus Edition. It's a completely free web browser with additional features for students. Here's how the Firefox website explains it:

"Firefox Campus Edition combines the Firefox web browser with special extras that give you streamlined access to music, cool sites and useful research tools. It's a way to get the most out of the web that's been created just for students. And it's free!"

Firefox Campus Edition includes FoxyTunes which allows you to control almost any media player from your web browser (ah...the Temptation to crank up the Beatles while reading virtual lectures...). It comes with StumbleUpon, a web program that lets users find websites based on their interests. And, it includes Zotero - a program that allows students to collect and cite online research in the browser.
