Firefox is a great web browser. Not only is it free, secure, open-source, and cross-platform, but is also extensible. You can extend its functionality through extensions, or you can change the appearance of themes. I have two extensions for Firefox that I want to share with you. Themes are really a personal opinion. If you ask me, I prefer no theme. So here is the list of two of my favorite extensions for Firefox.
DownThemAll is a great extension for Firefox that adds a download manager capability to your browser. Sure, it comes with downloading capapbilities, but this actually lets you pause some downlods, and even possibly speed up some downloads as well. Keep in mind, though, that using DownThemAll, or any download manager for that matter, may make some severs angry, causing them to not serve the download at all. In that case, use the normal way of downloading. Such a great download manager, built right into Firefox! Amazing...
The Google Toolbar is a neat extension that lets me use Gmail as my default E-Mail provider and lets me use Google Docs to open Word or OpenDocument files from the Internet. There is a lot more features jam-packed into this extension, but you really have to try this out yourself...
Those are my favorite extensions to Firefox, what about you? What are your favorite extensions?
