My Favorite Firefox Add-ons
Computers, Software February 16th, 2009As I mention is Why Firefox Is the Best Browser, one of my favorite parts of using Firefox is because, there are thousands of extentions and add-ons that allow users to add features they want to the Firefox browsing expirence.I use a bunch of add-ons in my installation of Firefox and would like to share them because I think they are the best and want to help everyone get the most out of using Firefox.
- Bookmark Duplicate Detector- Prevents saving already saved bookmarks and provides an easy way to reduce your bookmarks for no reason.
- Bugmenot- Saves the trouble of having to sign up for an account with a service when you are only going to use it one time. This site allows people to submit accounts to share with everyone and save the trouble of getting an account for every website.
- Delicious Bookmarks- Integrates Delicious Social bookmarks into web browsing and helps me add all the best sites I find on my Delicious Account with one click of the mouse.
- Download Toolbar- Download toolbar allows you to track downloads without having to open another window and saves a lot of screen Real Estate.
- Foxmarks- Is a must-have for anyone who has multiple computers because it synchronizes both bookmarks and account passwords between all installations and keeps all computers up-to-date!
- Google Gears- Gears allows people who use Google web services like: Google Docs, Gmail and Google Reader to access therse services even when they are unable to connect to the internet. This is very useful to anyone who is dependant on Google Web Services like I am.
- Google Reader Watcher- This add-on is a very simple couter to alert Google Reader users of how many unread stories are in their GoogleReader Feeds.
- Password Exporter- Very simly exports passwords and allows users to modify their password list in Firefox.
- Picnik- Alows users to simly right click an image in a website and edit it in the online image editor, Picknik.
- Screengrab- An extremly powerful screenshot add-on that give the user the ability to take screenshots of website and use them how they like.
- Tab Counter- It does exactly what it’s name suggests, , it counts how many tabs are open in a Firefox window.
- Tab History- When you open a link in a new tab it usually does not retain it’s history but, this add-on allows you to go back into the history of the tab.
- Twitterfox- This is my only Twitter client and the onlky way I update and check Twitter!
- URL Fixer- Fixes misspellings in domain ending so if you make mistakes like I do typing in domains quickly, then this is a must have.
If you are not already using these add-ons I reccommend giving them a try because they make me more productive and they will help you as well!
