For those that use Firefox, there are hundreds of Firefox extension that can be found on the web. Below some of my list of collection that I just collect and use for my own (not all of that). There are many extension that can be use to optimized your Firefox navigation- downloading, browsing and navigating process in Firefox easily.

Most of these extensions should work in latest Firefox Web Browser and if not you can easily updated them with the latest one. With this list of extension (will updated regularly), you should install the one that best for your “needs” only. Choose only best for you.

Here is the list:

Control Web page Behaviour and Navigation Extension.

  1. GreaseMonkey – Install user scripts and change the behavior of any web page.
  2. Image Zoom – Right click on an image and select a zoom option from the pop up menu, or, hold down the right mouse button in combination with the mouse wheel to zoom in or out on an image.
  3. Fasterfox – Speed up Firefox. Dynamic speed increases can be obtained with Fasterfox’s unique prefetching mechanism, which recycles idle bandwidth by silently loading and caching all of the links on the page you are browsing. Also tweaks many network and rendering settings. I use this extension.
  4. SpellBound – enables spell checking in web forms such as html text area / input elements (html input password elements are not checked by SpellBound) and rich text form elements. This allows you to spell check forms before submitting them.
  5. AutoCopy – Select text on any web page and it will be automatically copied to the clipboard. Middle click to Paste.
  6. Copy Plain Text – Copies text without formatting. Ideal to copied only a text and remove the formatting. Don’t have to copy the text to notepad again and again.

  8. Flashblock – blocks all Flash content from loading on a webpage.
  9. Clear Cache Button – Adds a clear cache tool bar button that cleans the cache in one click. Very handy for those who want to clear their security site.
  10. gTranslate – translate any text in a web page just by selecting and right-clicking over it. Uses the Google translation services.
  11. Xinha Here! – is a wrapper for the Xinha HTML editor that enables WYSIWYG editing in any text area and text box on any website.
  12. Yoono – instantly suggests alternate sites and people who share the same interests while you are surfing. I use this extension.
  13. Cooliris Preview – preview other search site with mouse over only. I use this extension.

Security/Privacy Extension

  1. SwitchProxy – lets you manage and switch between multiple proxy configurations quickly and easily. You can also use it as an anonymize to protect your computer from prying eyes.
  2. NoScript – allows JavaScript, Java (and other plugins) only for trusted domains of your choice. This white list based pre-emptive blocking approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities with no loss of functionality. I don’t like this one because it make my Firefox work slow.

Web Search Extension.

  1. Google Toolbar for Firefox – Lets you search google and all its services easily. Also powered by Google Suggest (Get query suggestions as you type in the search box), SpellCheck, AutoFill, Pagerank of web page, access to gmail, WordTranslator etc. Get this one.

Webmaster, full time Blogger or even a office workers usually deal with huge unstructured information almost every day. Massive information like phone numbers, mother recipes, web information and other will make your computer “eat” huge amount of inputs.

Don’t make all this unstructured information tie up yourself to one computer only. But smartly make it access from everywhere just from a web browser. As long that place can reach Internet connection, there are many application nowadays that you can use.

Here, I will give you 5 application that you can use:

1- Google Notebook – simple interface for your snippets of text. You can open, edit and publish your job into the web. Comes also with Firefox add-on extension.

2- mynoteIT - Basically for student because the notes can be organize into classes and courses. Comes with calendar for tracking your due date assignment submission.

3- Notezz! – Maintain any list of notes, you can add, edit and delete.

4- Stikkit - Had friendly surface, can tagging and bookmarks any notes. Suitable for any developer that want to tie their notes to each other application.

5- Zoho Notebook – HTML or RSS feeds can be added to any notes that you create. This application also had Firefox add on. The best online notes application I think.

There are many other application online that you can use, just keep looking which one suite your needs.

FeedBurner Sticker logo

In my other post i wrote that Google Inc already integrated Spain Panoramio into Google. The other news is, Google also purchased FeedBurner for around $100 million.

Google has acquired RSS management firm FeedBurner, the companies announced on Friday. The move means Google advertisers will have another, new avenue for their marketing, because FeedBurner serve more than 431,171 publishers will be able to join the Google AdSense publisher network. The site allows blog owners to manage their RSS feeds and track usage of their subscribers.

The hots is:

  • Google advertisers will have new platform to advertise their marketing.
  • FeedBurner will get more Google products.
  • One of the fast growing with 385% traffic growth.
  • Maybe remain free.

Let wait and see what will happen in near future….

How many of us can imagine do all the computer world works with a touch of screen, maybe we can see it on Minority Report or film only. Nothing is impossible with Microsoft Technologies. Newly, they launch the Microsoft Surface, the first new category in surface computing that “break the traditional barrier between people and technology”.

“Break the traditional barrier” here for means all new Microsoft Surface tech is the ability of the technology to recognize physical objects from a paintbrush to a cell phone and allows hands-on, direct control of content such as photos, music and maps. Play your favorite music by just dragging down the song to the player. How our life will be simple after this.

Surface new tech turns an ordinary tabletop into a dynamic surface that provides interaction with all forms of digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects. Imagine the image from the digital camera easily can be retrieve just by putting the device on the Surface. Lolz…

But all this technology are at new level, I can wait to see it for my self. More photo below.

Here’s I will show just a 1 ways on how you can turn your GMail into an huge 2.8GB online storage. That’s right, a 2.8Gb, if you have only 1 account web storage to keep/retrieve anything you want online simply just by uploading/downloading them. Imagine that you had 2 free Gmail account. Superb free storage…

Step 1. Download Gspace Extension for Firefox

Step 1: Download this nice extension first, actually this is an extension for firefox with a interface very similar to FTP application. It comes in 4 different modes (File transfer mode, Player mode, Photo mode, Gmail drive mode), with File transfer mode as default. Here’s how File transfer mode looks like.

If you don’t have firefox yet, you can download it here for free

Finished the instalation and you can see this on your computer

  • Top left – My Computer
  • Top right – My Gspace
  • Bottom left – Transfer progress
  • Bottom right – Transfer status

How to Transfer

Select file(s) from Top left (My Computer) and click upload button.

Why it’s Hot for me:

* Check your Gmail account with a click only
* Ability to send files to other users
* Handles multiple Gmail Account with just 1 interface

Why it’s not hot for me:

* Not a standalone application, only works in Firefox
