My favorite Firefox extensions:
GMarks --Latest Beta Version
- Maintain all your bookmarks on Google for easy access at anywhere
super drag&go -- Link to update for Firefox 2.0+
- Drag a selection for google search
- Drag a link to open in a new tab
NoSquint -- New extension to replace TextZoom by Jason Tackaberry.
// TextZoom -- Updated for Firefox 2.0+: fixed a bug for not zooming when open the first new tab. -- Known bugs: opening a new tab may also zoom current tab; not zooming for Gmail when using Adblock Plus.
- Set a fix default zoom size, useful for high-resolution screen
FireGestures
// All-in-One Gestures
- Mouse gestures: never need to click back and forward button!
Download Statusbar
- The "Downloads" window of Firefox is quite slow and obtrusive sometimes
- This extension shows the downloading status friendly
FlashBlock
- Opened too many tabs? Use this ext. to block the CPU-hogging Macromedia flash!
ForecastFox
- Weather is quite important when I was riding bike to the school (and for driving too!)
Adblock Plus
- Block ads in an easy/lazy way
UnMHT
- viewing/saving MHT file in Firefox
CHM Reader
- Make Compiled HTML Files can be viewed with Firefox directly (useful under Linux)
IE Tab (for Windows)
// IE View (fow Windows)
- Anyway, the world is not perfect and the websites are not all Firefox-friendly
- Use this to view pages in IE :(
