How to Use iMacros for Lockerz
Save yourself some time by letting your computer type keystrokes and click buttons. iMacros, a free Firefox add-on, installs in minutes and eliminates repetitive tasks by recording your actions once, saving them as a macro and playing them back automatically. If you have an account at the Lockerz website you can automate any task you can think of by visiting the site and letting iMacros create time-saving macros.
