Anne is a Firefox user. She has an iPhone too, and uses Firefox Sync to get to her bookmarks from her phone. | |||
While browsing the Web, Anne sees a notification bar in Firefox asking her to verify the email address she uses to sign into Firefox Sync. Anne decides to go ahead, clicks a button to send a verification message, and is told to check her inbox for a message. | |||
Anne finds the message in her inbox and clicks the link. She is taken back to Firefox and a message thanks her for verifying the email address. Firefox also tells her that she can now use her verified email address to sign into any supported Web site without any extra passwords. | |||
While talking to her friend Mark, Anne learns about a site called SaladFans.com. Excited to try it out, she browses to the site on her desktop, and when she clicks the "sign in" button, Firefox asks her if it's OK to disclose her verified email address with SaladFans.com. Anne clicks OK, SaladFans.com refreshes and she is now signed in! | |||
