For example, yesterday I wrote about rolling your own Firefox Search Engine with Rollyo. This “new” service actually already existed but in a different form. Previously, users could go to their tools section once signed-in and add a Searchroll to the Firefox Toolbar. Now, however, Rollyo has streamlined the process by: 1) Not requiring a user to create an account. 2) Removing the “Searchroll” Rollyo jargon in place of the more widely known “Firefox Search Engine” terminology. 3) Automatically adding the engine to the Firefox Toolbar at the end of the process. 4) Wrapping all of that into its own page.
