FireFTP is a Firefox extension that integrates a full featured FTP client right into your browser, so that you do not have to install any other software apart from Firefox to completely manage your blog.

After you install it, I bet you will instantly fall in love with it: the interface is complete with everything you could ask from a standalone software, options will allow you to fully personalize the software behavior, from setting up the auto-refresh rate, to changing the number of simultaneous file transfers.

You can also set up multiple accounts for your websites, and decide whether to let FireFTP remember the login credentials for you, without typing them anytime you need to modify something.

FireFTP can be activated from your browser’s Tools menu, and within some instants you’ll be able to control your remote files, directly in your browser, as if it was a normal webpage.

What I do know, is that Chrome is spreading rapidly and the number people who are falling in love with it is increasing everyday. That’s why I decided to look for a news site that will give you as much information as possible regarding Google’s Firefox counterpart.

It is called Google Chrome Fans and I personally love it: its interface is really clean, news are well written, and it also offers a FAQ page answering the most common questions about Chrome.

So if you are looking for a great source of information and news about Google web browser, you should definitely give it a look and add it to your favorites or, even better, add it to your feeds list.
