It is no secret I am a big fan of Gina Trapani’s line of “better” add-ons for Firefox, so I can tell you I was more than excited to see that they had been rolled together as an add-on collection, so you can grab them all at once.
Which extensions make the list?
Better Gmail 2 – Add useful extra features to Gmail, like hierarchical labels, an unread message icon on your browser tab, file attachment icons, and more.
Better Amazon - [...]
Do you use a lot of Google services? The Firefox add-on, GButts, will help you get quick and easy access to any Google service you want, next to your address bar or anywhere else you might need it.
Here are all the Google services you can quickly show or hide via the extension.
You can customize how much space you want to save with the options across the bottom (by making the menu a toolbar or a drop down menu). You [...]
Can you believe that is Google Reader? Nah, me neither. There has to be some sort of oddball voodoo magic going on here, right? What? You say it is a Greasemonkey script? Helvetireader breaks Google Reader down to just the things you need. I true, “Woah, that is awesome” fashion – the userscript creator also encourages people to customize the CSS and make it their own. (found via Lifehacker)
Maybe your not a RSS feed junkie like I am, but you do like to do some occasional headline tracking from time to time. Simple RSS Reader might be the extension for you, as it does exactly what you would think. It is a simple little RSS reader (minus the geeky complications).
The hardest part about Simple RSS Reader is adding the RSS feeds. Just click on the blue RSS icon and give a name and URL to each. That [...]
Need to make Firefox a little better you say? From Gmail to Flickr and all the neat applications in between, the “better” series of add-ons for Firefox is getting, well… better looking every single time I check them out.
Here are the list of the “better” Firefox extensions and what has come with the most recent update:
Better Gmail 2 – Version 0.5.2: Updates and fixes the Redesigned skin; Adds Hide Gmail chat script.
Better Flickr – Version 0.3: Adds Firefox [...]
Time for another one of those awesome, put “insert web site here” in the Firefox sidebar tips. This time around, it is the Google Reader iPhone version we are going goofy about. Open up this link here:
http://www.google.com/reader/i/
After doing so, drag it to your links bar or bookmark it. Then right-click the bookmark, and select the Load this bookmark in the sidebar checkbox. Now save and your good to go.
Do you like to multi-task? Why check your e-mail and read your feeds in two different web applications when you can get it all done in one by combining the power of Google Reader and Gmail.
Now I have talked before about the Gmail + Google Reader greasemonkey script before. After giving it another shot the other day though I noticed the experience is much more polished. What does that mean? Well looking at it [...]
One thing I have been looking for, for a while is a way to add del.icio.us link saving to Google Reader. I use both products, and they just seem like they should merge together nicely. Thanks to the Google Reader + del.icio.us Greasemonkey script now I can.
This script adds the “Add to del.icio.us” button to the bottom of each post and then gives you all the regular fields, so you can edit the extended info, description and tags [...]
In my opinion, Google Reader is one of the best feed readers out there on the Web today. With that said, any tool that makes this better is alright in my book.
The Google Reader Watcher does just this. There are several tools out there that help you get more out of Google Reader but this one does the best job ad giving you updates.
This extension will checks your Google Reader for unread feeds and if you have, the [...]
Want your browser to read your finger? Well since I have no Microsoft Fingerprint Reader, I can not tell you how well it works – but the Fingerfox extension might be what you are looking for.
Fingerfox (SE) is an extension that adds compatibility for Microsoft Fingerprint Reader in Mozilla Firefox. Fingerfox (SE), Special Edition, is recommended for those, who has problems with the original Fingerfox extension.
Honestly, with fingerprint reading aside I like this extension just because of it’s name. [...]
