SRL Archive - Discussions & Debates

Here is a list of all the addons I use daily.



1) Personas - Gives your Firefox a nice skin. Some are very cute, sleek, and nice.

2) AdBlock Plus + Element Hiding Helper - Pretty simple. Disabled on villavu of course.

3) Download Statusbar - Shows all your downloads in the bottom toolbar, instead of making a different window pop up. Also, it will automaticly clear the download off the list, and open the file, when you double click it. Plus more.

4) Fasterfox - Accelerates the speed of your Firefox.

5) FireFTP - A FTP client built into Firefox. It is fast, efficient, has a lot of features, and is free.

6) FlagFox - Will show a little flag in the top of the address bar, showing the IP and country the server you are viewing is hosted at. It is pretty useless, but it is interesting to see if you are getting slow speeds because the server is far away, or the connection phails. And when you click the flag, it shows the approximate city the server is hosted in.

7) FxIF - When you view the properties of an image, it displays the EXIF information. It is useful for identifying trolls and fake images, and also includes other useless information that some people find interesting.

8) Save Image In Folder - Very useful on imageboards. You right click on the image, scroll mouse over "Save Image In" box, click one of the folders you have predefined there, it saves it. It is useful as it is much quicker than going to a different folder if you have all your images organized.

9) Xmarks (Formerly Foxmarks) - Will sync all your bookmarks and (optionally) passwords over a SSL connection to their database. Then, when you login to a different computer you have Xmarks setup on, you can login and it will automatically sync and download all your bookmarks. It is very useful if you use more than one PC.

+ already said stuff

About the same.

adblock - blocks ads
autoPager - loads the next page so you dont have to click nxt page…
better gmail2 - …makes gmail better
bookmark previews - is nice to see what im clicking on
download statusbar - i couldn't live without it
dragdropupload - drag file onto upload place…i dont really use it that much, but its nice in theory.
edit middle - shows awesome bar results when editing in the middle
fast dial - thinking of getting rid of it…its a tad slow an i dont use it much
fasterfox lite - makes ff faster in 3.0
FEBE - backs up extensions for profile synchronization…can pack them all into one file
firedownload - makes dls faster by using multi-source dls
fireftp - ftp client
greasefire/greasemonkey - scripts to make your browsing pleasure better
ie tab - for dumb sites/other certain instances, like logging into two accounts of something at once
menu editor - when you have as many extensions as me, you will accumulate a lot of useless items in the right click or main menu, this allows me to have them not show up.
Resizable textarea - self explanitory and quite useful
sage - rss reader
session manager - for those times when firefox crashes or you somehow lose all your tabs, this is the place to go
skip screen - skips the waiting screen in places like megaupload, rapidshare, etc
stop or reload button - combines the two and shows whichever one is applicable
stylish - makes sites look prettier
sxipper - auto fills in forms
tab mix plus - awesome on a stick
ubiquity - meant to make easy tasks available from one place. i sometimes use, mostly i forget
update notifier - saves me having to update extensions and it tells me when i need to restart ff
urlbarext - adds nifty buttons to the url bar (make tiny url, copy url, use proxy, go up one directory, etc)
xmarks - bookmark sync.

ShowIP is exactly the same as FlagFox, except FlagFox shows what country, etc :)
