Mozilla Brings The Sign In Button To The Browser Level

Screen Shot 2011-08-12 at 7.12.38 PMIf you're on a website that uses accounts, the sign in button can be anywhere. Sure, there are some common best practices, but I can think of dozens of sites that put them all over the place. Mozilla is looking to fix that, by bringing the sign in to the browser level.A new experimental extension that Mozilla has released for Firefox does exactly this. When it's installed, you'll see a new "Sign In" button just to the left of the URL box. Clicking this, pops open a window that prompts you for a username and password for the site you're on. It then shows you when you're signed into a site, and gives you one-click ability to sign out. Easy. Simple. Nice.
