>> Hi, I'm Jason Parker from CNET Download and this is a first look at Cooliris for Firefox. Cooliris is a free add-on for the Firefox web browser which has excellent image and video viewing capabilities. With Cooliris installed, whenever you perform a search for images simply click the icon in the upper right of your browser interface to view your images on Cooliris 3D image wall. Grab and drag the search bar at the bottom to smoothly scroll through images. When you find one you like click on it to get a closer look, and click the blue globe icon on the bottom right to view the original image. Even if you're not performing a search, you can use Cooliris discovery tools to browse your images and movies in several different categories. If your search turns up some movies about your chosen subject, simply click on them to view them from within the Cooliris interface. With this feature, Cooliris is a great tool for viewing movie trailers. Featuring an uncluttered interface and a classy way to view online media, Cooliris is one of our favorite add-ons for Firefox.
