Firefox has many add-ons, but one of the best ones I’ve come across is ScribeFire Blog Editor. The current version is 3.1.6. Once you add it to Firefox, press F8 on any page within Firefox and the ScribeFire editor pops up in the lower half of the screen. It’s a simple and straight forward editor. You can add HTML code in line as well as add images and YouTube videos. Once you’ve setup the link to your blog site, it pickups your current list of categories and allows you to add tags to the post. More out of habit, I publish the post as a draft to my blog and finalize it within WordPress before publishing it to the blog.
You can include Technorati tags as well as as sharing the page on many of the social networking sites such as Facebook, Digg, StumbleUpon, Newsvine and others. I’m experimenting with this post and sharing this page on Facebook.
Did I mention that you can make money with the ScribeFire Editor? You can sign up for ads for your blog in a fashion similar to Google’s AdSense. When people click on these ads, you get paid a small amount. You get paid on the 7th of the month following for your previous month’s earnings. ScribeFire pays on a minimumof $5. AdSense waits until you’ve accumulated $100 before it pays out.

”It’s true that most blogs don’t make money directly. It’s also true, however, that a large number of bloggers make a lot of money as a result of their blogs.” according to Josh Catone from his blog post on the sitepoint.com website.
