My favorite Firefox add-ons

These are some Firefox add-ons, that I couldn’t do without. If you don’t already use Firefox, I suggest you get it ASAP here:

http://getfirefox.com

Here we go:

AdBlock Plus

This addon is a must have for any Firefox user. This amazing add-on block almost any kind of ad, by using a variety of filtering techniques. This add-on is the primary reason I haven’t switched over to Google Chrome instead. The Adblock extension for Chrome is not as good as the one in FF, because it still loads the ads. It just hides them after the page is done loading.

Download Statusbar

This is a must have add-on for people who love to download files. This add-on makes it very convenient to pause, cancel/stop, monitor downloads from the bottom of your Firefox window.

Xmarks

This is a very useful add-on if you have multiple computers, and would like all your bookmarks to be synced, so you don’t have to worry about different sets of bookmarks on different computers.

The best thing about this add-on is that there are versions for Chrome and Safari (Mac OSX). So you don’t have to worry about bookmarks if you use different browsers for different computers.

Read It Later

This is a very useful add-on if you like to read a lot of content over the internet. This add-on basically serves as a reading list of stuff that you want to read later. As the description says on the website it “eliminates cluttering of bookmarks with sites that are merely of a one-time interest.”

Video DownloadHelper

As the name suggests this add-on, is very useful if you watch a lot of videos over the net. It allows you to save videos from almost any website that use flash video. It also allows to batch download images from a particular images; this function is particularly useful if you are downloading a lot of images from a gallery. It becomes tedious to save all of them manually.
That’s all my favorite add-ons for Firefox.

More useful add-on lists for:

Bloggers
Developers

Enjoy!

P.S - If you still use Internet Explorer, WTF are you doing?
