We submitted iterasi as a Firefox add-on. A Mozilla editor checked us out and encouraged us to get more reviews. So far, 11 users have reviewed iterasi. That’s not a bad start. But we could use more! We’d love your review if you find iterasi useful. Thanks to the people who reviewed us already.
My own research into the review process revealed a few nuggets that I thought I’d pass on to you. Let’s start with the basics.
Register at Mozilla
To write a review, first go to the add-on page at Mozilla.org. Please register for Mozilla if you have not done so already. You have to be registered in order to write a review.
Are you trying the iterasi add-on for the first time? You may download the add-on from the Mozilla site after registering. You may also download the iterasi add-on fir Firefox atiterasi.

Writing A Review
Writing a thorough, honest review may be one of the best things you can do for a Firefox add-on that you really find useful. It tells the Mozilla community and Firefox users that you trust the add-on and find it useful in your online life. It is these reviews that Mozilla editors scrutinize to determine if the add-on should be made public for Firefox users.
First off, short reviews that says “good work,”or “nice add on,” will get deleted by Mozilla.
Complete, thorough reviews get the most notice. Editors value these reviews especially if thy go into specifics. For example, here is an excerpt of a review from one of our users:
I use it for capturing and storing things like Web receipts (no more “print this page for your records”), and great articles in online pubs that I want to save without having to worry if the link will break later. I also store Web research I do for clients because it’s easy to organize and tag pages I’ve captured so I can quickly go back to them later.
Be as technical as possible. Reviews that look deep into the the application are considered the most useful for editors and Firefox users. Here’s an iterasi review from a user who briefly describes the different aspects of the iterasi technology that he finds useful:
With the folder hierarchical structure, it is easy to keep, organize and find pages I have saved from all corners of the web. I can additionally add tags to make a search even easier. I use it to save technical pages when I am in the office and then when I am in the field they are easy to pull up with a wi-fi connection. Installation was a snap and the toolbar is beautiful.
Hope this helps. Have any tips of your own for reviews? Let us know!
