Many thanks to Quick Online Tips for sending in this link. Ever wanted to add the Firefox download counter to your Web site? Well, over at Quick Online Tips they have plenty of ways to get it done. From static images to desktop widgets all the different ways are listed here.
Unified Back and Forward Button
If your toolbars in Firefox are a little too busy, you might want to cut down on the clutter. One way of doing that would be to unify your back button and your forward button. If you find yourself going back and forth in a tab, then the Unified Back and Forward Button extension is for you.
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.
Add N Edit Cookies
If you deal with cookies a lot (no, not the type you eat) then you know it can be a hassle to edit them and see the result inside of the browser. That is where the Add N Edit Cookies extension comes into the picture. This extension makes it really easy to edit your browser cookies.
SEO Tools
Search engine optimization (SEO) has become big business in the Online world we live in today. Everybody wants to know how to “work” the search engines so they can get themselves in as many results as possible. What SEO Tools does this extension provide? It comes with: spider simulator, keyword density, determine link price, Yahoo web rank, domain stats, HTTP headers, robots text viewer, whois lookup, keyword suggestions, web site country and domain age.
Firefox Flicks
These movies might not help you use Firefox any better, but some of them are pretty fun to watch. The project is to “create a 30-second ad, in any style (live action or animated,) that brings Firefox to life for the millions of Web users who have yet to discover Firefox and the better Web experience it delivers.”
My suggestion for you? Go watch “Wheee!”, it is my favorite so far.
Print Preview
Why doesn’t Firefox have a print preview button/option on the toolbar? You would think that one would be a given. If this has been bugging you as much as it has been bugging me, give this extension a shot. The Print/Print Preview extension gives you back that print preview you miss.
Lost a Bookmark in Firefox?
This weekend I made a big mistake, I accidently deleted one of my folders inside of my bookmarks. I looked around for help, but there was none to be found. How did I get this folder back?
Well, all you have to do is open the Bookmarks Manager (Click on Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks). Once you are in there, hit the Ctrl key and Z key to undo your last action. You can also go up and select Edit, then Undo. Now all you have to do is train your fingers not to be so twitchy.
More Firefox Memory Tweaks
Can’t get enough of that memory tweaking and fixing for Firefox? Well I think I have one more resource that should help you get your fix. Firefox Tweaks, Extensions and Optimizations gives just about every memory and performance tweak I have ever read about. The best part about it all, is they are all in one place.
