I've used Camino, Opera, Safari, Chrome, and Firefox over the past year and a half (Internet Explorer can die for all I care). Out of the five (or six), I've got to say that I'm still a Firefox fanatic. The speed and versatility, as well as expandability, make it absolutely the best browser out there. My question to you is, which extensions and/or plugins do you use to best work your browser for the tasks you perform? I use the following:

AdBlock Plus: Which is great until you want to see what your own ads look like, then you have to go make an exception for your page. But it's a good tool to speed up page load times.

AddThis: So I can easily Digg/Stumble your blog posts. And mine, when necessary.

Better Gmail 2: I like he enhanced interface so much more than the simple, basic Gmail.

Customize Google: I Google search a lot, and this addon takes out all the spam , ads, and other features that are completely unneccesary in a search.

Download Statusbar: Fuck download windows that pop-up every time you download a file.

Download Helper: Download YouTube vid with this, convert with iSquint, watermark with iMovie, reupload to YouTube, the end.

Fission: Thinking about taking this one off. My status bar doesn't appreciate the blue tint.

Google Preview: I get a little screenshot of the page in the Google search results next to the link. It's nice, as it lets me know what sites will get an automatic database error or 404.

Greasemonkey: NECESSARY.

Reload Every: For when i feel I need to manipulate pageviews on a site page without worrying about IP/uniques (ergo: testing or updating), this is the bombastic.

Screengrab: This saves a webpage as an image. Useful for sites where you need quick screenshots of a page.

TinEye Image Search: For those of you who haven't heard of TinEye, it's a great bullshit detector for photos. With this plugin, all you have to do is right click on the photo and search TinEye, and it brings up results for where else that photo is.

TorButton: Seamless Tor integration into Firefox, even when Tor sucks nowadays.

TwitterBar: I can post to Twitter from my address bar. Fast and easy, and very much aprpeciated.

What extensions do you use? I know there are several for SEO, but I haven't gotten around to installing them yet.
 


Most of your extensions are all fluff. Yea they may be helpful for the social person but for affiliate marketing and development you have nothing of interest.

Not sure why you even posted this.
 
I enjoyed the list, some interesting plug-ins even if they aren't AM related. Thanks for posting
 
This is the Shooting The Shit forum, so what if they aren't all AM related? We sit at the computer all day whether we are working or not and some of these are handy. Here's my favs:

Xmarks - My #1 addon, syncs bookmarks & passwords between different computers & OS's
Colorzilla - Tells you the hex value of any color on a web page, and a DOM Analyzer
DT Whois - Nice little button for WhoIs lookup on the domain you are viewing
HTTP Fox - Better than Live HTTP Headers IMO
SearchStatus - Alexa and PR in the status bar
Wisestamp - HTML Signatures for Gmail or any other mail service

Well I see your point and I am not bitching but when there is this text right at the top when you visit wickedfire, "WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum - Internet Marketing Webmaster SEO Forum" and you create a topic about a tool that most peeps around here use, I kinda expected something different.

Anyways here my current addons

Clear cache -

cool previews - makes google images pop up to original size, plus it allows you to view a link before clicking

domain details - A crap load of domain info plus has nice little copy ip to clipboard feature

domain lookup - once you use it you will love it. It has a nice little feature that when you highlight a word or sentence you can check availability of the domain with your registrar of choice. Nice for finding keyword string domain names.

firebug -

fireFTP -

SEO for firefox -

tree style tab -

web developer -

webshots - takes good full page images of websites

search status - displays alexa, compete and pagerank of the webpage you are on plus some other crap.

Shooting The Shit This is where the action is for all webmasters alike. Anything goes, seriously. Come meet and network with your peers, it's a fun way to take a break out of your busy day of posting at other boring forums.

You're not new here, 1nspire, you should know the difference between the STS and AM sub forums of WF.
 
Favicon Picker - for quick bookmarks toolbar nav
Google Global - View Google in diff countries
SEO Quake

And for web development, although they were already mentioned, I can't live without the web developer toolbar and firebug. They are completely indispensable.
