Wake Up with Morning Coffee!
You love webcomics. I love 'em, too.
The problem is, once you start following half a dozen or so, they're hard to keep up with all the time. Even if you've got them bookmarked, you just might forget to check certain sites...
Well, that's a shame. You'd love to read them all if you could just remember to check all the sites. And remember what days they updated on. And you didn't have to wait for them all to load one at a time...
Let Morning Coffee remember all that for you! It couldn't make enjoying your favorite comics simpler!
So what would you like to learn about Morning Coffee?
Three Reasons Why You Should Use Morning Coffee!
You may already have bookmarks of all your comics, or use special systems like OnlineComics or the Belfry to keep up with your comics... but why bother?Morning Coffee not only allows you to keep up with any comic without having to worry about subscription services or RSS feeds... it does a lot more for you, too!
- Stop Worrying About Updates! With Morning Coffee, you always check your sites at least once a week for new material! If a comic updates more often, just tell Morning Coffee when, and it'll automatically bring up all the comics you specify for a given day!
- One Click Brings You All Your Favorites! Just click on the coffee cup right next to the address bar, and you're good to go! You don't even have to remember what day of the week it is!
- Never Forget your Favorite Webcomics Again! Once you add a site to Morning Coffee, it stays there until you remove it!

- loves the "Morning Coffee" add-on for Firefox - it opens your usual sites with one click! http://plurk.com/p/43wy8q
Are You Using Firefox?
Morning Coffee is a Firefox Extension, which means you can only enjoy Morning Coffee if you're using some version of the Firefox web browser!
Get Firefox First!
Enjoy a faster, easier, safer internet along with your webcomics!
Where Can I Find Morning Coffee?
The best place to go get Morning Coffee (once you're already using FireFox, of course) is to grab it from the Firefox Add-Ons Website!
Just follow the same steps you would use to grab any new Firefox Extension - it'll walk you through it!
Don't forget to restart your browser when you're done!
It's okay, I'll wait.
"Now what? I just added Morning Coffee, but there's no comics in it yet! How do I add new comics?"
How to Add New Comics to Morning Coffee
It also means, however, that you'll have to go and add in every comic you read by hand first. Relax, you only have to do this once per comic you read, and then you never have to worry about remembering that comic again.
Step 1: Go to the site you're interested in adding to Morning Coffee. Make sure it's the page you're looking at right now, and not some other tab.
Step 2: Click on the little arrow next to your coffee cup, near the address bar!
Step 3:Click on "Add to My Morning Coffee", and then click on the day(s) you want to check the comic!
PROTIP: If you know a certain comic updates 'late' on a certain day, add it to the day after!
This way, you won't have to wait for your comic to update before you can check the rest of your comics!
ACK! I Added a site I didn't want!
Figure out where you placed your errant site with "Configure Morning Coffee" and delete it!
Don't forget to save your new settings when you're done by clicking "OK!"
Tweak Morning Coffee and Make it Work For You!
Sometimes comics end. It happens.
Sometimes you get upset by a comic and want to remove it from your list.
Sometimes the local prankster decides to go RickRoll you and now every time you load Morning Coffee, you get fifteen different Youtube videos of Mr. Astley's one-hit-wonder.
The point is, you've got links to get rid of. Adding stuff to Morning Coffee couldn't be easier, but what about deleting it?
Click on the little arrow next to the coffee cup, and then click on "Configure Morning Coffee". It'll open up a new window for you where you can tweak all your Morning Coffee Settings, easily.
Your Guide to Configuring Morning Coffee
Interfaces for great software don't come much simpler, but just in case you're confused...
- Your Bookmarks for different sites are organized first by the sites you always want, and then by the different days of the week. If you're trying to get rid of a Monday-Wednesday-Friday comic, you'll need to remove it from the list for each day it updates! It can be a bit of a headache, but it's worth it in the long run...
- "Close Tabs Before Opening" means it'll close up all those other sites you were looking at before you opened up Morning Coffee's pages in their own tabs.
- "Open Sites in Random Order" means it'll randomize what order the tabs for your comics appear in - good for if you have lots of comics!
Alternatively, you can leave this unchecked and sort the links in the above folders so you can read comics in whatever order you like!
Tell Your Friends!
Now that you're hooked on Morning Coffee, tell your friends so they can keep up with all the great webcomics that you do!
You'll never have to worry if they've checked their favorite websites recently enough to keep you from blurting out the latest spoilers and plot twists!

- Good Job!
Where does morning Coffee store the links? I want to back them up against the day that
the sysadmins install a new Firefox version, system crashes and etc.?
Thanks!
