Which Firefox Extensions Do You Use?

February 6, 2006 | Firefox

One of the reasons that I first moved to Firefox was because of all of the wonderful extensions that are available for it. The longer I use Firefox, the more great extensions that I find. After the jump I have included the list of the current extensions that I use.

If you haven’t installed or tried Firefox yet, give it a spin. If you use IE right now, Firefox’s tabbed browsing will change your life.

  • Adsense Notifier 0.8 - Displays your current Adsense earning on the status bar. (I created this extension so that I wouldn’t be controlled by my OCD habit of checking my Adsense earnings every 15 seconds. With all the time I have spent developing the notifier though, I’m not sure if I have actually saved any time.)
  • BugMeNot 1.3 - Bypass compulsory web registration with the context menu via bugmenot. (Eric’s Firefox extension tutorial helped me immensely when I first started Adsense Notifier)
  • ColorZilla 0.8.3.1 - Advanced Eyedropper, ColorPicker, Page Zoomer and other useful goodies. (The eyedropper is a must have for anyone who does web development.)
  • del.icio.us 0.5.11 - del.icio.us is a social bookmarks manager. It allows you to easily add sites you like to your personal collection of links.
  • Extension Developer 0.2.2.20050505 - A suite of tools for extension developers. (This is a must have for anyone who develops extensions for Firefox.)
  • Gmail Notifier 0.5.5 - A notifier for Gmail accounts.
  • Google Images Re-Linker 0.3 - Jumps directly to the full-size image on images.google.com.
  • Infocon Monitor 0.3 - Displays the current SANS ISC INFOConlevel on the status bar.
  • Live HTTP Headers 0.11 - View HTTP headers of a page while browsing. (Another required extension if you do any web or extension programming.)
  • Popup Count 0.3.1 - Counts the number of blocked popups. (Over 3000 blocked and counting!)
  • Tabbrowser Preferences 1.2.8.8 - Enhances control over some aspects of tabbed browsing.
