Post the Three-Hundred and Twenty-Seventh - Update

[nestar]

Well, I updated to Firefox 3 today and I also found out that there are these programs you can add to do other cool thing in your FF browser.

So, an advice on what add-ons I should get? What are the one that you, my awesome f-list, wouldn't live with out?

Definitely get LiveJournal Add-ons and Ad-Blocker Plus. =D

I saw a link for that, but the user reviews were all bad; not being able to find features, slowing down the computer, things like that.

Those are minor things, actually. The slow down only happens when it's loading pages with lots of comments, and then you can just click on the little pop-up exit button and it stops. Also, though I don't need all the features, the ones I do use are enough of a convenience for me to keep it. *shrug* Plus, the flist tracker is really convenient for when ever I'm not actually on LJ (which isn't very often...).

I like foxy tunes. It keeps me from having to go back and forth from my browser to winamp. Stumble Upon can be pretty fun too

AdBlock Plus, Session Manager, URL Fixer, Better Gmail 2/Better GReader - if you use GMail and Google Reader.

i have IE Tab, FlagFox, Ctrl-Tab, and Personnas too. :D

In addition to the ones the others have mentioned (Adblock plus, colorful tabs, and most importantly, LJ addons) I also use:

Dictionary search - Obvious addon is obvious.

Greasemonkey - Allows you to customize the way a webpage displays using small bits of JavaScript.

IE tab - Opens an Internet Explorer tab in Firefox. This one is great for when I'm changing my LJ layout and I want to know how it will look in other browsers.

Favicon Picker 2 - Lets you choose icons for bookmarks. I have tons of bookmarks on my toolbar, half of which are LJ comms, so it helps to be able to tell quickly which ones are which without the space-hogging text labels.
