nethackz.com— A list of Safari Add Ons and Applications for the Mac Lovers. They are so hard to find but there are some out there. Here is a few for you, The Mac Enthusiasts :-)

Nethackz is right, Apple needs to address it's lack of support for plugins. The only reason I use Safari instead of Firefox is because of SafariStand and Inquisitor. When working on a website I still use Firefox because nothing yet beats the Web Developer plugin on Firefox. I really like Safari and I hope that Apple doesn't keep it dumbed down.
Nice to have. I use Firefox on my Mac because I'm addicted to my extensions, but compared to FF on the PC, it's a real piece of poop. Flash is still screwy, even in 3.0, and it's a slow memory hog.Safari is so much better on the Mac, but I needed my AdBlock and Greasemonkey. Thank you!
Mac all in all needs applications and plugins that are provided to users for free. This would substantially help them in other aspects of business as well.
Wide columns are hard to read. You might be in the minority of people who can actually read wide text, but in general, there's a reason that newspapers don't print a single wide column all the way across.There's no need to slap designers who understand readability. If you really want to change the way the pages are laid out, try installing the Stylish extension <a class="user" href="http://userstyles.org/stylish/">http://userstyles.org/stylish/</a>
You misread my post. I didn't say I want wide columns. I do state I want columns wider than one word, which if you knew anything about usability you'd know is terrible usability.I want wide content. If that content is subdivided into smaller columns, no worries. I'm clearly arguing for a reduction in the waste of space with the pointless massive blank sideburns.To use your newspaper analogy, go look at one some time. Notice how 40%-50% of the pages are just blank space with everything else crammed in the middle? No? Really? How amazing!The second plugin I want is one that will slap idiots like the one I'm educating here that have poor reading comprehension!

Very nice list of plugins! My two favorites would have to be stumble and piclens.. Both time wasters, but who cares!

Inquisitor is what is really holding me back from migrating to Firefox...
