Using add-ons

I've been trying to use some of the add-ons to add to my blog, but am still struggling with some of the technical details. In the meantime, I stumbled onto a Firefox extension to toggle to Cyrillic keyboard. I downloaded it and it has made googling so productive for Russian-language sites. I am able to access far more information, particularly bibliographic information, for my research topics than I have been able to through sites that require transliteration. It is amazing what resources has popped up in the last few years in Russian that just were not there before. The library links are really developing, including a lot of digital libraries. I'm appreciating this opportunity to explore the technology.
