Pencil: An Interesting Drawing Add-On for Firefox 3

Written by Sam Dean - Jul. 07, 2008

The other day, we covered Firefox extensions for those tinkering with the new version 3 of the browser. Now, Webworkerdaily has a highly interesting addition to our list: Pencil--a Firefox extension that requires the new version 3.  "By coupling the Gecko drawing engine with the ability to display, save, and load an external canvas, together with a palette of shapes, Pencil installs an entire drawing application into your Firefox browser," notes WWD. As is true of Dia, Pencil works, in some ways, similarly to Microsoft's Visio visualization application. Check out WWD's experience with it.
