Heidelberg, Germany, October 29, 2007 - As the Internetcontinues to grow in popularity, many people are becoming increasingly disenchantedwith the repetitive, menial tasks involved in their daily Web activities. Postingfeedback on eBay buyers, checking website visitor statistics, and downloadingaccount information are now tedious and time-consuming daily chores. Fortunately,iOpus has announced a new product, iMacros for Firefox, which fully automates thesetasks and more.

iMacros for Firefox was designed to automate online activities within the Firefoxweb browser. With iMacros, users can create macros to automatically check the samesites every day, remember passwords, complete web forms, and upload or downloadfiles, among other activities. As the company states in its tagline, "Whatever youdo with Firefox, iMacros can automate it."

Internet users have come up with a surprising number of applications for iMacros.Some notable examples include stockbrokers who create macros to extract online stockquotes, shoppers who use them to automatically compare prices at online stores, andwebsite owners who use them to get daily downloads of their page rankings.

Mozilla, the software company behind Firefox, collects and categorizes Firefoxadd-ons. The iMacros add-on is growing rapidly in popularity and is already amongthe ten most downloaded extensions in the "Bookmark," "Feeds, News & Blogging," and"Privacy and Security" categories on the Mozilla site.

iMacros for Firefox pioneers a feature known as social scripting. It allows users toshare macros and scripts in a way that is similar to how they share bookmarks on themany social bookmarking websites. After creating a new macro, users can make justone click to share it with their friends as a link, either by distributing the linkvia email and social bookmarking websites or by embedding it in a website or blogfor public access.

Users have begun sharing their new macros enthusiastically across the web. In fact,script sharing is now so popular that iOpus has even created a special site forscript-sharing on del.icio.us. Any iMacros user who has created a script that may beuseful to others is invited to tag it as "for:imacros." iOpus staff members thenreview the submissions and post the best ones for the entire community to enjoy.

The wide variety of user-submitted scripts and the creativity underlying theirdiverse functions serve as inspiration for iOpus software designers, who strive forconstant innovation as they improve the iMacros software product over time.
