Switch to Firefox

Okay, so I've been resistant to change from Safari for at least 2 years now, (change is hard for me too!) but after hearing all you'll ask things about the blogs like how do I change the color of the text or underline something, I decided I would check into it and yes it is way easier in Firefox. You can easily add links, change font, size, color, add bullets and center things.
Besides Firefox is what the district uses for accessing their staff only page, and the teacher web builder. So I've been convinced and hopefully I've convinced you as well. I will put in a work order to see if Andrew can download it to everyone, but if you want to jump on the bandwagon here is the link.
download firefox
