As you might know, Firefox extensions add to your browsing experiencing, sprucing it up with greater functionality and convenience that has contributed to the growing popularity of Mozilla’s browser. This latest extension allows users to record their screen while they browse.

Called CaptureFox, this extension does just that, capturing everything you do while it’s in a state of recording.

After its installation, you’ll notice a new icon sitting on the right-hand side of your status bar (it can also be accessed by hitting CTRL-SHIFT-U or selecting it from the tools menu), the use of which will bring up this extension’s menu.

As you see, there are a fair number of options available, offering users a chance to determine just how high they’d like the quality of recording to be.

You can decide if you’d like to restrict it to just what’s available in your Firefox window, or you can record your entire screen. Along with frame rate, video quality is also adjustable, both of which being options that may affect performance on older machines.

This is a very helpful tool for those who’re making instructional videos, but it’s also a reliable – and, for some, fun — means of keeping an actual history of the time spent on your computer.

Here’s a video that demonstrates just how CaptureFox  works:
