CoScripter for Firefox
Posted by The Foo in Software, Technology & Gizmos

CoScripter is a firefox add-on that captures, records and automates tasks that you perform in a web browser. It is intelligent enough to watch what you do and as you perform a task, it will record the instructions/ actions to a script file.

For example, it can record the actions of printing online, changing your mailing address, updating your facebook status, paying a bill etc. The script file is then stored on the CoScripter’s server to make it easy for you to share it.

Useful scripts that have already been made include Adding your phone number to the national do not call list and checking an American Airline flight arrival time and status. CoScripter is a good way to eliminate repetitive tasks you perform everyday on a web browser.

Still considered a research project, CoScripter is currently developed by the IBM Alphaworks team to include Allen Cypher, Clemens Drews, Eben Haber, Tessa Lau, James Lin, Jeffery Nichols and Eric Wilcox.
