Foxmarks, Inc., one of the most popular browser add-ons in the world with more than nine million downloads, announced that it is a featured add-on in Mozilla's Fashion Your Firefox launch. In addition, the company formally announced that James Joaquin has joined the executive team as CEO. Founded by Mitch Kapor of Lotus Development Corporation and Mozilla Foundation fame, Foxmarks is a browser add-on that instantly syncs browser data across computers, keeps it safe with automated backups, and makes it available online via any browser or mobile phone.
Fashion Your Firefox is a new Web application that enables Firefox users to customize their browser based on their interests and online activities. With Fashion Your Firefox, add-ons that fit people's online lifestyles are organized in easy-to-discover ways and are available for installation in just a few clicks.
Firefox add-ons are a next-generation platform for Web Applications. Strong consumer desire to personalize the Web experience has created a huge demand for add-ons like Foxmarks, which has been downloaded more than nine million times.
"With Foxmarks we've created the best of both worlds: seamless integration with the web browser combined with a cloud service that is accessible anytime, anywhere," said Joaquin. "We're thrilled to be part of 'Fashion for Firefox' and help consumers improve their online experience with our service."
Joaquin brings extensive Internet and executive management experience to Foxmarks, having served as CEO at Ofoto.com, where he led the company from pre-venture funding through an acquisition by Kodak, Inc. During his tenure as CEO, Ofoto became the world's most popular photo sharing and printing service, and scaled to in excess of 20 million members and more than 1 billion images stored. He also served as CEO of Xoom Corporation, the online international money transfer service. Most recently, Joaquin was Venture Partner at Bridgescale, a venture capital firm focused on growth equity investments in technology companies.
"James is just as passionate about the consumer web experience as I am -- he's a perfect match for the Foxmarks team," said Mitch Kapor, founder of Foxmarks. "Foxmarks is enjoying immense popularity and growth. I'm excited to remain on as Chairman and continue to counsel Foxmarks as it grows."
