About
Magpie was begun in September of 2002 by Ben Goodger
as "Tab Downloader" to make collecting images from sites easier. Since its initial release
it has grown in capabilities to include some tools to help navigate image archive sites.
Magpie was originally developed for the Mozilla browser, with support being added in 2.0
for Mozilla Firebird 0.5. No version of Magpie was made available for Mozilla Firebird 0.6,
but 3.0 returns for Mozilla Firebird 0.7 and current nightly builds. Magpie is no longer
maintained for the Mozilla browser, but a compatible older version (1.42) is still available.
Many improvements and bug fixes made to Magpie are the result of suggestions from people,
via email. With the transition into MozDev I hope people will continue to provide feedback
and file bugs for problems and feature suggestions.
