mozilla.com — Mozilla, along with Google/Nike-sponsored site Joga.com, have released a Firefox Extension for the World Cup that shows you notifications of goals/penalties/etc right in the browser. Great way to follow the World Cup while you're at work. GOOOOOAL!

You can turn off the sidebar - this add-on shows scores/updates in the status bar too. That said, FootieFox does look cool.

haha has anyone read Chuck Klosterman's "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs"? His summary of soccer is quite hilarious, I must say. Cool for people that are into soccer. Hopefully we'll see this sort of thing incorporated into some other sports.

Ya, downvote me because I said "Linux."As long as I have 1.5.x an extension should install. Don't give me the "install 1.5.0.4" crap.Thanks for the direct link as that works JUST FINE WITH 1.5.0.3. The least you could do after "try running 1.5.0.4"...

"And saying it's the top sport in the world is a bit of a stretch"You're a moron, with your head buried in the sand. You say that "it's actually the top sport in 2 continents not the "whole world." because teams from other countries don't "dominate" the World Cup.You idiot. Does that mean countries like Trinidad & Tobago, Australia or Ghana have no top sport AT ALL? Just because they don't win the World Cup? Nearly every country has a national league. There are leagues for regions and continents, hemisphere wide tournaments, regional international tournaments, cup competitions local tournaments & leagues.....at both club level and national level.......you get the point.The World Cup is just the biggest star in a whole galaxy of events. Football is the biggest sport in the World. It's black and white. Deal with it.In 2004 95 million watched the Superbowl. In the same year, 153 million watched the European Championship final. The Champions League final on it's own got 67million that year - 500 million for the tournament. The World Cup Final in 2002 got 1.3 billion - over 12 times as many as the Superbowl. The tournament had total figures of 30 billion. It's a big world out there, fella.Gridiron may be the most popular sport in a world that's only 5,000 years old and has no global warming - but it's not in this world. Football is.I couldn't care less if you like football or not. But at least get your facts straight.(I'll never understand how so many seemingly intelligent Amercian's believe in utter nonense.)

This was done as an example. We did not want the same as ZDF had yesterday by posting any "fake" results regarding the real games. The screenshot was open as such during testing. Also read the disclamer under the picture.Anyway this extention will carry on after the world cup.. and you nerver know ;o)
