The Firefox team spends a lot of time thinking about user interface features to maximize the browsing experience. One such feature is the use of the Mac “blue button”, the button located in the upper right corner of applications windows. Hitting this button hides all of the menus and maximized the viewing area of the program displayed. In Firefox this provides a good method for taking advantage of full screen real estate. A second tap of the button brings all of the hidden items back in view. It is simple to use, and the video demonstrates just how useful the blue button can be in Firefox on the Mac.
