Foxkeh

With the recent release of the Firefox version 3 browser (which I particularly like btw) comes an opportunity to review some new and not so new add ins.

Currently my favourite ones are:

  • PicLens: this great plugin transforms your browser when you are visiting Flickr, Youtube etc into a great full screen experience.
  • IE Tab: A simple answer to those poorly written pages which need IE to run. A simple button on the bottom of the page and you are running in IE!
  • QuickProxy: Do you have to turn your proxy on and off between work and other environments? This adds a small button to the bottom of the browser which quickly and simply allows you to turn your proxy settings on or off.
  • ScribeFire: An outstanding blogging tool which takes over the bottom half of your browser, particularly ahndy when you are blogging about a web page.
  • FireShot: allows you to take, edit and export screen grabs of the browser

These are currently my top picks. I run quite a few others, but these are the ones which make my experience better and easier.

What are yours?
