My favourite Firefox add-ons
Here are the Firefox add-ons I have trouble living without:
- Adblock Plus - block invasive and/or high-bandwidth ads. You can let through “tasteful” ads at your discretion :)
- FireBug - essential for web development
- ScribeFire - For blogging. Formerly Performancing.
- IE View - useful for switching to IE for SharePoint sites at work, and for testing cross-browser compatibility.
- English AU dictionary - when U need coloUr.
- Macfox Graphite - nice OSX-style theme that looks great in XP and OSX-themed GNOME.
- Tab Catalog - a tab switcher with tab previews, nice keyboard control and lets you use
CTRL-x
to select your xth tab. - Hit-a-Hint - provides keyboard shortcuts for navigating HTML links.
History (most recent changes first):
- Added Hit-a-Hint.
- Added Tab Catalog.
- Removed DownloadThemAll. It dramatically improves file download speeds, but the lack of polish on the UI bugged me :) And I didn’t use it much.
- Added DownloadThemAll! on recommendation of colleague.
- First publish
