    Talking FireFox Extensions

    One thing I love about Firefox is the easy ability to add new functionality with an “extension.” For example, one extension called Forecastfox will add a little three day weather forecast down in your status bar. It looks like this:



    Below are just a few of the extensions i have installed:-
    AJAX Yahoo! Mail (Viamatic Webmail++) 0.3 - Adds AJAX support to the current Yahoo! mail and makes it more usable
    CustomizeGoogle 0.38 - Enhance Google search results and remove ads and spam.
    fireFTP 0.88.3 - FTP client for Mozilla Firefox.
    ListZilla 0.6.9 - Posts list of extensions to a website
    MeasureIt 0.3.3 - Draw out a ruler to get the pixel width and height of any elements on a webpage.
    NoScript 1.1.3.4 - Extra protection for your Firefox: NoScript allows JavaScript, Java (and other plugins) only for trusted domains of your choice (e.g. your home-banking web site). This whitelist based pre-emptive blocking approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities (known and even unknown!) with no loss of functionality... Experts will agree: Firefox is really safer with NoScript :-)
    PDF Download 0.5.1.2 - Allows to choose whether you want to view a PDF file inside the browser (as PDF or HTML) or you want to download it!
    ReminderFox 0.5.8.3 - Displays and manages reminders and ToDo's
    SearchStatus 1.14 - Display the Google PageRank and Alexa ranking with search-related tools.
    SEOpen 0.6 - Provides some basic tools to help with search engine optimization.
    SessionSaver .2 0.2.1.028 - Magically restores your last browsing session.
    Statusbar Clock 1.7.1 - Display the date and time in your browser's status bar.
    [StumbleUpon 2.2 - StumbleUpon Toolbar
    Web Developer 0.9.4 - Adds a menu and a toolbar with various web developer tools.

    If you have firefox, what extensions do have installed?

    i use customizegoogle (to remove google ads, etc)

    gmail manager (checks to see if i have new emails)

    forecastfox (weather, and a nice little radar too!)

    mouse gestures (instead of clicking back and forward, i rightclick+drag a direction and itll go back or forward!)

    image toolbar (just like IE image functions)

    fasterfox (improves speed)

    and image zoom (self explanatory, you right click on image and scroll up to zoom in, scroll down to zoom out)
