Ditch Your Unused Search Engines

I usually don’t have a lot of clutter in my browser, but my search engine collection had gotten a little crazy, till I cleaned it out yesterday.  Right now, I have it down to five – because I really didn’t need the 15 I had, because I hadn’t used ten or eleven of them in months or years.
How can you remove your unused search engines?  Click on the Firefox search box, and then go down and select the Manage [...]

I’ll start things off by showing you my current browser setup:

As you can see I like to keep it pretty simple, [...]

Tagmarks – Better Tagging Through Icons

Want to make tagging your bookmarks as easy as clicking an icon?  Tagmarks, the add-on for Firefox, hopes to do just that.  The idea here is to bring one-click bookmarking in Firefox together with the tagging power of the browser.
With Tagmarks, you have a lot of different icons that popup whenever you hover over the traditional bookmarking star you see in the Firefox 3 address bar.  When you click in each icon, it will add the page to the [...]
