The fast video download extension he mentions is *very* cool. You can download video files from popular sites like YouTube, Dailymotion, Break.com and more. With just a click on the status-bar or custom toolbar icon, FVD immediately opens a "Save As" dialog with the video title and extension in place. It's just a really easy to use and obvious extension to have.
they always forget foxmarks, by far my favorite of all add-ons...more importantly, about the Panic! extension that kills firefox tabs when your boss walks by..."Once you press your user-definable hotkey, they're gone. Sure, trudging through the browser history to re-find that amazing article on “Linux Home Automation: the Ultimate Internet-Controlled Gun Cabinet” can be a drag, but when it saves you an unpleasant conversation with your boss, it's worth the price."Shift+Ctrl+T (or Shift+Cmd+T): will reopen closed tabs, keep hitting it to open any and all tabs you've closed this session going backwards in the order you closed them; they even load with full back-button-history. coming up with that keystroke was genius, it's a shame more people don't know about it; you'll wonder how you ever lived without.
