What is Digg?174 Comments
- ElBeh, on 06/16/2008, -7/+231Yawn, most of these addons are extremely well-known. Why doesn't anyone have a list with addons that are useful but not too used? :(

Youtube Comment Snob: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/711 ... (This makes the Youtube comments much more bearable) - dtd00d, on 06/16/2008, -10/+89How can they leave out PicLens?? Piclens is the flashiest reason to get Firefox.
http://www.piclens.com/ - smellytim, on 06/16/2008, -6/+66can anyone decipher that description?
- iolo2007, on 06/16/2008, -1/+38It's something to do with pokemon I think
- ElBeh, on 06/16/2008, -5/+40Oh, and yes, these are all compatible with FireFox 3.
- solidcube, on 06/17/2008, -1/+3515 AMAZING lists of blogs each containing 7 MUST-HAVE lists of productivity blogs each containing 10 LISTS of the best expensive pens to go with your overpriced Moleskine!
- dmacmattack, on 06/16/2008, -0/+26I'm still trying to decipher the title.

- celer1ty, on 06/16/2008, -0/+20Firefox, making your porn browsing customizable, safer, and faster.
- inactive, on 06/16/2008, -1/+19Great list, post it online, submit to digg, and i will digg.
- ultradust, on 06/17/2008, -0/+14The comments here are better than the dugg article!

(DIRM-does it really matter?)
Yup - Iwantawii, on 06/16/2008, -0/+14Dugg for using the greatest and most highly streamlined punctuation mark in the english language. It's a tragedy that our children are not encouraged to use or sometimes not even taught about the interrobang.
- ShoggothDreams, on 06/16/2008, -1/+12Menu Editor 1.2.6
OMG Yes!! Finally, THIS is bar none the most needed Extension I have seem posted. I searched and searched for something to do this, and remove that ridiculous Send Image/Send Link choice in the menu. I am so tired of missing the actual Save choice and accidentally opening my e-mail app.
Thanks so much! Your comment was, for ME, far more useful than the actual posting. - DreKor, on 06/16/2008, -1/+12it is boobies
- Cenobite, on 06/16/2008, -2/+12While you make a valid point, I think you're getting dugg down because you're so angry about it. Life's too short to be so filled with angsty teen rage. Why don't you come back after you've turned down the rap music, picked some flowers and hugged a baby?
- smrekar, on 06/16/2008, -0/+9Check out these neat plug-ins/add-ons.
Reminds me of a home star runner where strong bad rails on the email writer. "How did you seen out when you was a baby? How were you supposed to seen out when you was werry old? Length times width." - smoothmann, on 06/17/2008, -0/+9Dude thats badass. I didnt know about that....thanks!
- Taiyaki, on 06/16/2008, -10/+18What the hell is that crappy picture‽
- Murdats, on 06/17/2008, -1/+9your right, this whole using adblock since the mainstream usage of the internet has really destroyed it completley
oh wait, the internet has been fairing as well as ever despite the fact ad blockers have existed as long as ads have.
next you will be telling is PVR's will destroy tv because they let people skip ads. - smrekar, on 06/16/2008, -0/+8same.
‽ - I love this thing. - rob263, on 06/17/2008, -2/+9Maybe you're having so much trouble with Firefox extensions because *you're* the one who's retarded. I've never heard of anyone else having problems with FF extensions, and even in FF3, everything works great.
You must be a Mac user. It's a wonder you can even figure out how to turn your computer on. - Farik, on 06/17/2008, -1/+8I just installed 7 of those, thanks for the great list.
- explnx, on 04/27/2009, -0/+7Hah, the other day I was trying to read some official windows support forum, I swear microsoft sabotaged the page to keep it form rendering properly in firefox. It wasn't just the weird overlaps and stuff badly coded pages often give you, posts were actually out of order in the thread unless you opened it in IE.
- inactive, on 06/16/2008, -0/+7No. There are millions upon *millions* of Google users. A few hundred thousand using FireFox. Not even *half* of those are using Googlepedia. To suggest that an add on will destroy Google as we know it is retarded.
Google would fail miserably the day you have to pay for it. - Lane5slacker, on 06/17/2008, -3/+10I knew 14 of those addons and I don't even use Firefox. (Before you castrate me, no I don't use IE)
- ctenn2ls, on 06/16/2008, -2/+8Much better list than the submitted article. Fission's pretty tight too when multiple add-ons start taking up space.
- 4321234, on 06/17/2008, -3/+9All-in-One Gestures
CookieCuller

DownThemAll!
Nightly Tester Tools
NoScript
Remove It Permanently - Jayso89, on 06/17/2008, -1/+7It's spelled Grammar dumbass
- nibkey, on 06/17/2008, -2/+8Zotero https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/350 ... is a total godsend when doing references for academic projects - saved me hours and hours and it's so easy to use (as well as free!). My most used plugin evar (after Flashgot I guess)
- ConfusedCartman, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5I'm sorry you don't know how to copy and paste, but it's pretty easy. Highlight the text you want, and hit ctrl-c. Then click into Google's search box, and hit ctrl-v. Saves me lots of time.
- savantidiot, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Had to run to wikipedia for this one.
"The interrobang is not a standard punctuation mark. Few modern typefaces or fonts include a glyph for the interrobang character. It is at Unicode code point U+203D. It can be used in HTML documents with ‽ or ‽, although the second form has poor support in common web browsers. The Interrobang can be used in some word processors with the alt code ALT+8253 when working in a font that supports the interrobang, or using an operating system that performs font substitution." - Xplodzion, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Wow it's like I've been living under a rock, I just installed Piclens and I am stunned, it's like I'm using a browser from the future.
- libertao, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Use smart keyword searches instead of the search box and never look back...
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/smart-keyw ... - Batiu-Drami, on 06/17/2008, -11/+16My suggestion (I tried submitting this but I'm not connected, so they go nowhere):
Vista + Glasser + Hide Menubar + Phoenity Aura (or your theme of choice) = SO PRETTY
Screenshot: http://img383.imageshack.us/img383/8907/soprettyrb ...
Glasser: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/733
Hide Menubar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/476
Phoenity Aura: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/627
Edit: If you like it, feel free to digg it? :) http://digg.com/software/Glasser_Make_your_Firefox - inactive, on 06/16/2008, -0/+5I dunno, the awesome bar does not help.
- HueytheFreeman, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Replace Fireshot with Screengrab, because it does the same thing except Screengrab isn't trying to cram its "premium" version down your throat each time you click the menu, and is open-source (which Fireshot does not claim to be). Also Screengrab is lighter (doesn't come with Fireshot's MsPaint clone).
I'd also like to add that for the smart stop/reload this can be done through chrome (you'll need to place the stop button before the reload button to make it work however) in Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/[profile name]/chrome/userChrome.css
#stop-button[disabled] {
display: none;
}
#stop-button:not([disabled]) + #reload-button {
display: none;
} - LavaWarrior, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Adblock should definately be first.
- ElBeh, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5I didn't include DTA! because it's common. This is a list of great, lesser-known extensions.
- macfan93, on 06/17/2008, -1/+6For the youtube comment one, it hides every single comment. Us diggers are much more sophisticated.
- SuperRoach, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4The first thing I thought when reading this title: Wouldn't the author know all 15 plugins?
- cakerun, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4Now I have an urge to collect ALL THE ADD-ONS.
I have always wanted a browser even more useless than IE. - diggB, on 06/16/2008, -2/+6Just installed GooglePedia. Way cool. Thank you ElBeh!
- inactive, on 06/17/2008, -2/+6Like I said even if Opera's features can be replicated through extensions, that works only in theory. Practically speaking one would need 50 extensions to get near Opera's features. Installing such a large number of extensions wld just won't work.
- djclay, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4Dude, most of those are cool but your Adblock Plus subscription sucks.
Read the several reasons from the makers of ABP here: http://adblockplus.org/en/faq_project#filterset.g
I highly recommend EasyFilter+EasyElement which blocks almost every ad I've seen (or not?) and removes the whitespace left behind, and can be obtained here: http://adblockplus.org/en/subscriptions
I hope this helps make ABP even better for you! - Batiu-Drami, on 06/17/2008, -2/+6Pfft. Ignore the haters, Vista is actually pretty good. Not a huge step up, but a definite step up from XP.
- ElBeh, on 06/17/2008, -1/+5Oh yeah, totally forgot about that one. Fission is really cool and useful.
- JNudda, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3A couple more useful ones
Menu Editor
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/710
Find Toolbar Tweaks
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/258 ... - xtremdav45, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3Context Search is one of the best add ons for Firefox, and it is highly underrated.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/240 - ritubpant, on 06/16/2008, -5/+8The article and comments here are giving me a lot more to add on Firefox ;-)
- jackol, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3From the index file there:
"The files in this directory are - for now - only meant to be used by our testers. Downloading them directly can harm our ability to distribute Firefox efficiently, and will also not be counted as part of our attempt to set a Guiness World Record for the most software downloads in a day." -
