Here’s a list of absolutely great Firefox plugins that I keep installing in every computer I use:
- Adblock Plus – get rid of the ads on the pages!
- Better Gmail – get a better Gmail experience on your browser.
- Fasterfox – surf much faster!
- Firebug – how did we do web development before it?
- FireFTP – I threw all my FTP clients off the window after this one.
- Gspace – use your Gmail account as a remote hard drive!
- Google Notebook – take notes as you browse (incredibly useful for my degree)
- Google Toolbar – do I need to tell you to install it?
- IE Tab – (Windows only) switch between the IE and the Gecko engine with a single click!
- Load Time Analyzer – useful to troubleshoot slow-loading sites.
- Selenium – how do you do your functional tests?
- PDF Browser Plugin – (Mac OS X only) a faster way to show PDF files directly on the browser (faster than Adobe’s own plugin, which by the way does not work on Firefox on the Mac!)
- Scrapbook – want to save a snapshot of the current website in your disk?
- Showcase – get the “Expose” effect on your Firefox browser!
- Web Developer Toolbar – Firebug’s best friend.
- Total Validator – do your web pages validate against standards?
If you have any preferred plugins, just let me know in the comments below!
