Moji Firefox Extension

PLEASE NOTE
This link is dead. I am keeping this original listing just for reference.

Another excellent innovation from the chaps at mozdev.org – the Moji extension for Firefox and Thunderbird. Moji is an integrated sidebar-dictionary aimed at helping people read Japanese (and Chinese) on the web. Simply select a single kanji or a whole word from whatever Japanese text you are reading and click on the respective button in the Moji sidebar to display the kanji reading and English meaning. The killer aspect of Moji is that any terms you look up stay in the sidebar until you erase them, so you can use Moji to read an article in Japanese, accumulate a list of all the kanji/words you couldn’t read and then export that list as text or html. This is what differentiates it from say, rikaichan, which gives you the appropriate reading on the fly without letting you make a list. [courtesy of Nihongojouzu.com]
