Nonprofits that have made the jump from Internet Explorer to Firefox — a free, open-source browser developed by the Mozilla community — often cite better security and tabbed browsing as major reasons for switching. And while Firefox alone is often touted by its users as a convenient, safe, and feature-rich Web-surfing tool, it can be further enhanced via the addition of extensions, very small programs that tightly integrate with your browser to provide additional functionality.

Mozilla's Firefox Add-ons page lists more than 1,500 extensions, grouped in categories ranging from Entertainment to Privacy and Security. To help get you started on customizing Firefox, we've hand-picked 10 extensions that we think nonprofits will find particularly beneficial: five that any organization can put to good use, and five that will appeal to nonprofits that regularly work with Web 2.0 technologies.

Since these add-ons are all free, easy to install, and consume minimal hard drive space, there's no reason not to give them a try.
