How FireUploads Mozilla Add-ons Work?

There are so many instances where you had to upload files from your local computer to a website. The standard upload mechanism in any website has many limitations like, they allow you to upload 1 file or a maximum of 10 files at a time. And they doesn’t show any information like upload progress i.e how much was already uploaded and how much is still remaining.

As the name says, this firefox extension is an universal upload tool. It allows you to upload/download files from any website using a friendly interface. In this version, Box.net (1GB of free space), Flickr (photo viewing/sharing), Picasa (photo viewing/sharing), Youtube(Vidoes) are supported. You can upload videos to Youtube, upload/download/organize photos to Picasa, Flickr and Box.net. Next versions would support other websites like Google Videos, Webshots etc.
