Here you can post and discuss about the firefox add-on's you use.
If you post an add-on that hasn't been posted yet, please give a short description and a link (best from The firefox Add-On site. ;-)


I just had to formate my computer so those are just the ones i could remember and installed first. :)

My list is similar to yours, with the exception of the Imageshack toolbar and MeasureIt....also, the new Firefox 3.0 will make tab mix plus less useful I think....

Edit: Ok, so i took a screenshot of my extensions. These are the ones I use regularly...more or less, there's a few I have on the desktop, but right now I'm on my laptop ;)

Ah....good ole Fasterfox...some sites tried to block users with Fasterfox, because it puts unnecessary stress on the servers >.< Plus, after some experimenting switching extensions around and disabling Fasterfox....it doesn't really provide that much speed :) For me at least....

About that, yeah.. I don't think it's making any faster. ((; >.<) The only thing that affect Firefox's page loading was the pipelining tweak at about:config. I dunno.. people keep saying it's faster but I'm wireless so I can't really feel the difference.

Try experimenting disabling it and whatnot. And the pipelining tweak, as I mentioned, is at times blocked by some websites, which might make it slower....well, FF 3.0 b2 is uber-fast without anything >.< but few extensions work :(

I bid my farewell to Fasterfox. Turns out there's no use of it.

So recently I found this PicLens. It's awesome for image search engine. You don't click from page to page and zoom with your mouse wheel. Very neat.

Iz nice, but you have to make sure it is enabled in the page, and it sometimes only shows you the thumbnails

I'm still new to it, but it zooms in nicely for me. Of course, to get the image URL you have to get out of PicLens. Unless there's a convenient way for it.

And apparently I can browse PhotoBucket albums with this too. :D This is basically the "cover flow" for web page images.

It's very integrated in Photobucket, Flckr, Facebook and all those websites that have heavy use of images :)
