Making Acrobat Reader Faster In Firefox
I don’t look at many Acrobat files on a day by day basis, but I can only imagine how frustrating it might be doing it over and over again in Firefox. It is a little on the slow side. The folks over at Propellerhead.tv have some tips on how to make the process a little faster for everybody.
Digg Coral Cache
Don’t you hate it when you find something interesting on the front page of digg.com and it is already down due to the high traffic demands? So do I. Some people belly-ached over my last digg-related Firefox extension pick. Digg Coral Cache should be a winner with everybody. It turns those links into Coral Cache links or a user-specified cache-server link.
Cooliris – Google Search Previews
Ever wanted to know what was under those search result links in Google? With Cooliris, all you need to do is hover your mouse over the link and you get a preview of where it leads. This Firefox extension also works with Google image searches as well. Think of this as a sneak peek before you click.
Xultris – Tetris Clone
I often find myself surfing from Web site to Web site looking for something to do. If you have found yourself in this place more than once, than give the Xultris Firefox extension a shot. When clicked, it launches you into an adictive game of Tetris. This is the ultimate answer to time killing.
Full Screen
Sometimes we want to browse a little bigger. Maybe the Web page looks better that way. Maybe you just like to think big. No matter what the reason is, this Full Screen Firefox extension should get the job done.
Kaboodle
Have you ever had the urge to ask somebody if they want to Kaboodle? If they didn’t slap you, then they probably know Kaboodle is the easiest way to collect information from anywhere on the web with one click. Well, Kaboodle just got a little more simple with this Firefox extension.
RSS Ticker
Ever wanted an extension that would turn your Firefox installation into a news room interface? Love them or hate them, tickers on some of the big news stations can be pretty helpful. If nothing else, it gives you something to read. Now lets bring that ticker to the browser and toss RSS into the mix. RSS Ticker scrolls your live bookmarks (also known as news feeds/RSS feeds) across your browser, a la a cable-news style ticker.
