~~ Must Have Firefox Add-On Recommended By Digitians ~~

naveen_reloaded · 12-11-2008, 02:20 PM

Hi guys ...

To say the truth ... I was a hardcore Opera Browser fan ... I didn't like Firefox that much before... , though it was bloated , just like IE ...

But now things have changed .. after Many useful Add-ons and many other stuff ... Firefox has become my Default browser...

All Because of its Add-On Feature.. So here i Dedicate this thread regarding Add-On for Firefox...

Tell Other which add-On you use and let other too benefit from your experience

Ok Shall we start our recommendations ??

Here is mine

>>> Save Images

Why this add-on ?

I browse sites with many images like flickr , gizmodo etc... this add-on helps me grab all the images .. instead of me going to each image and downloadin ...

Very nifty for all those who browse loads of images ...

>>> Stylish

Why this Add- On ??

This ad-on gave me back the old Thinkdigit forum .. this gave me the vision to see all other sites in a different view .. eg : gmail .... the best one...

>>> Smiley Xtra

Why this add-on ?

I love to add smiley when replying in forums... this is the best one out there , which can easily replae all the deafult smiley sets in a forum and gives the rich looks to your replies on cariuos threads... ( its very new add-on to me .. so practising to use it frequently )

>>> Secure Login

Why this add-on ?

One thing i loved in oepra was Wand , wht a option it is ....

now this add-on gives me the same thing in FF... Love it !!

>>> Scrap book

Why this add-on ?

My fav ... Most of the times i am on Gprs so i dont have the privelge to visit the sote again ... so this add-on helps me save , oraganize all the webpages i think it needs to be saved for future reference ...
anyone bookamrking sites for only particular content can use this add-on , as

>>> Glasser

Why this add-on ?

It matches perfectly , or say makes my FF blend with Vista Aero

>>> Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer

Why this add-on ?

Best add-on for one who thinks to have a backup of all bookmarks and password online ... can try this add-on ...
A must have one for all those who install / change the FF frequently or use one or more PC`c / laptops /..

>>> Fast Video Download

Why this add-on ?

Downloads videos from variuos Video Sharing Sites VERY effectively....

>>> BBCode Xtra

Why this add-on ?

Not all forums can be well furnished like ours ... many would not even show the options to use ... this is where this add-on comes in ...
A good one ... try it ..

Other usuals

Adblock Plus

Grease Monkey

What are you guys going to recommend to Others ... ??

P.S : sorry for not providing the links ... to the add-ons... i am on Gprs and its damn slow ... so please google them... all the names mentioned are correct .. so dont have to worry , they will directly take u to the download page ...

Scribefire is recommended for every blogger.
It is a blogging addon that sits in the bottom of your screen
You can post from it, monitor no. of visitors, check how much adsense money you are making, etc.
Its one of the best addons I've used.

varunprabhakar · 12-11-2008, 03:00 PM

Datafox for checking bsnl broadband usage

thanks for this info

I use gmarks instead of foxmarks. It uses google bookmarks as base, and IMO is much better. The other regulars are adblockplus, gmail manager, stylish and twitterfox.

I still am a hardcore opera fan ... FF is too slow But lately i am using ff a lot mainly coz of addons .

Download em all -- downloading all the files from a page
Colourful tabs & aging tabs-- i use a hellavu lot of tabs so it helps diffrentiate... plus it looks nice

adblock plus & other essentials -- of course

P.S. Anyone noticed that opera doesn't even have widgets link on its homepage

ThinkFree · 15-11-2008, 08:16 PM

Installed RIP and will see how it works after restarting firefox.

@mehra.rakesh : It's there. Look at the links given at the bottom of the page and you will find.

ya... opera should add a option or re inovate to include add-ons and other stuff... otherwise many will shift to FF

Faun · 15-11-2008, 11:07 PM

I hate AD Block Plus. Lets bloggers earn some bucks from ADs. Good Bloggers gives you latest information and solves your problems

I recommend start a good technical blog and you will feel same like me

naveen_reloaded · 17-11-2008, 02:12 PM

ya ... but if u are willing to give the bloggest some money thru thier ads... just add thier site to ADP .. it wont block the ads on that site...

anyway .. guys is there a way to RIP a particular section of the website??
