best guide to add-ons, themes and tips for Firefox
I have a quick and easy tutorial you can all do (as long as you are on Facebook, that is). I have started up my own fan page for Firefox Facts and my other projects – and here is how you can make sure you do not miss any of the awesome tips, links, videos or anything else I post there for you.
Want to make Firefox look a little more like Facebook? I have a Firefox theme for you that takes its inspiration from the social networking juggernaut. The Facebook theme for Firefox actually does a pretty good job at giving you a Facebook looking browser – but still seems unique enough to not be called a carbon copy.
Want to give Facebook a more minimalist look and feel? If so, I have found the perfect Greasemonkey script for you to install and use. The simply named, Minimalist Facebook userscript removes several annoying (and space wasting) features of the Facebook website.
Use the chat feature on Facebook? One thing that it really lacks is a way to keep a history of who you talked to and what was said. Thankfully though, this add-on – Facebook Chat History Manager – will give you a way to simply browse through your previous Facebook chats.
Amplify is a very cool Firefox add-on that will let you clip and share things from news to images and videos (just about anything you find on the web). It fully support auto-posting to Twitter, Facebook, Buzz, WordPress, Posterous and more.
You can clip things, post them by email, add them to your blog or even share them on a micro blogging service. The choice really is up to you.
How can you add the full screen button to YouTube videos found on Facebook? This is the question that was brought to my attention Friday by one of my Facebook followers, and after doing a little hunting I did find a solution.
Want to like things on Facebook, without actually being on Facebook? If Facebook is your second home, and you love to share what you find around the Web with your friends then you need the Facebook Like add-on for Firefox.
Want to be able to download some of the best HD 1080p videos from across the internet, but missing that Firefox add-on that promises to get it all done in a simple way? KeepTube is the video downloading extension you might want to take a look at.
Looking for a quick and easy way to enlarge thumbnails of photos you see on Facebook? Facebook PhotoZoom will do the trick. This simple add-on will bring simple photo magnification to your favorite social network.
Do you want quicker access to "Liking" things in Facebook? The Like-o-matic is an awesome bookmarklet that is designed to let you like anything on the Web and share the fact you like it on Facebook.
Using this bookmarklet is easy. All you have to do is visit the web site, drag the bookmarklet to your bookmark toolbar and then click it when you see something you like. When you do, all your buddies, friends, and family members will be notified that you think that page, article or domain is absolutely awesome.
Go grab the bookmarklet at http://likeomatic.heroku.com/ then come like me!
