Hay, just made a list of add-ons for another thread and I was wondering what other ppl use for their add-ons in FF. Maybe I'll discover something new.

Here's my list:


  1. 1-Click Weather - Weather Channel stats
  2. ??Block + - Something that apparently blocks something else. I was told I can't say the name, but most of the ppl below me have said it so oh well.
  3. Add to Search Bar - Adds any search page to search bar
  4. Cooliris - 3D browsing I use when searching through tons of pics in a search
  5. Cool Previews - Can view a page link within same page. Kinda like a PiP feature on TV
  6. Download Statusbar - View/manage DL's in status bar
  7. DownloadHelper - DL vids from various websites
  8. eBay Sidebar - might uninstall as I don't use eBay much anymore
  9. Extend Statusbar - Displays speed, %, time, and loaded size like in Opera
  10. Fast Dial - instead of a blank page when you open a new tab, it displays snapshot of pages you set to bookmark there
  11. Faviconize Tab - Sets width of tab to tab icon size
  12. Fox Tab - 3D viewing of tabs and tab history
  13. Java Quick Starter - ??? Must have been needed at some time
  14. Linkification - Converts text links into clickable links
  15. Linky - Opens pics in separate tab/window
  16. Locationbar2 - Formats and linkifies address in the Location Bar
  17. Locator - Highlight an address and do a click and it'll bring up a page at selected address in Google Maps
  18. Movie Media Player - ??? Dunno, guess something needed it at some time
  19. myTimeZone for eBay - auto display eBay times in your local time and other eBay features
  20. PDF Download - You can choose what to do when you click on a PDF file like DL, view with another prog, or view in HTML
  21. Personal Menu - Create your own menus. I MUST have this as I organized all my menus in one menu. Totally a space saver!!!
  22. Prism - Creates Prism apps in FF
  23. Read It Later - Temp saves webpages that you don't want to bookmark, but want to read at a later time
  24. Session Manager - Saves and restores the state of all windows. A must have.
  25. Sothink Web Video Downloader for FF - Another thing that catches video files from a web page
  26. Stealthier - Anti-pr0n crumbs
  27. Tab Scope - Preview and navigate tabs in a small popup menu when you hover mouse over tab
  28. Text Area Resizer and Mover - Uhhh, allows you to resize or move text areas, maybe?
  29. UnPlug - Yet another video catcher
  30. Wired Marker - Permanently highlights text in various colors and, apparently, shapes. Good for game faqs.
  31. Xmarks - Bookmark/Password sync to website. Saves them and restores them when reinstalling FF and viewable on their website

Sorry if something like this was already done.

Wow, thats a lot of addons. I used to use:

Tab mix plus

stumbleupon

linkification
 
I'm an extremely simple person. Not many add-ons here. The first add-on was blacked out due to forum rules regarding ad-blocking.


 
Fission
Locationbar2
LogMeIn
TwentyTenBuddy
Xmarks

Fission, Locationbar, and TTB are all related to the theme I'm using.

StrataBuddy
App Tabs
Fission
Omnibar

Gmail Notifier
WOT (Web of Trust)
Xmarks
 
Fission
OmniBar
Google Sharing - gives me my privacy back by anonymizing Google-related traffic as long as I am not logged in with my Google account.

Speaking of Fission, does anyone know where I might be able to find the Mac progress bar graphic to use with it? Would look a little bit nicer for those such as myself using OS X.

I got quite a few...

**bl*ck+ - Blocks something. Disabled on [H]ard and a few other sites.
Better GReader - I likes my RSS
Characterizer - Great for learning Chinese/Japanese characters
Checkplaces - Checks for dead links, etc. in bookmarks
Perakun + Chinese-English Dictionary - for handy translations on the fly
Firebug
-Codeburner
-Firerainbow
-Inline Code Finder
Cooliris
Download Manager Tweak
Downthemall!
Errorzilla+
Exif Viewer
Fastestfox
Firegestures
FireShot - Don't really use this anymore.
FoxyProxy standard
Greasefire
Greasemonkey
MR Tech Toolkit
Paste and Go 3
SortPlaces - Sorts bookmarks automatically
Tab Mix Plus
Tineye
Web Developer - comes in handy in addition to firebug occasionally
Xmarks
 
Adblock (disabled on [H] for obvious reasons)
Xmarks
Download Status bar
Screenshot them all (takes a full page screenshot as opposed to just what you can see)

And, not really an addon, but I use small firefox icons instead of the normal large ones to give me more webpage real estate.:)
 
NoScript
Download Statusbar
WOT
Better Privacy - kills LSO Flash cookies
FireGestures
Permit Cookies - I have FF delete all cookies when I close the browser. This allows me to be selective with the ones that don't get deleted like the [H] so I retain my login. Incredibly lightweight and simple interface. Love it.

And two others that are related and shall remain nameless. ;)
 
WOW!!! A lot of good ones I've missed. I'll post an update with the additional adons that I installed. Keep it up.
