ReminderFox
I am a calendar and to do list person. I keep almost everything in the Thunderbird calendar and like it. But sometimes it’s a pain to have to leave Firefox, go to Thunderbird where I’m in the mail screen and go to the calendar tab. That’s why I was intrigued when I learned about ReminderFox. [...]
Fireshot
FireShot is just one of the neatest add-ons there is. It’s like someone read my mind. Every time I take a screenshot if I want it cropped I have to edit it in another application. I stopped trying to do nifty things with my screenshots a long time ago because it was a pain. That’s [...]
Color picker Firefox addon
I have a color picker on the computer, but I always have to open it because I don’t like to leave it running and sitting in the system tray. Today I found an alternative solution to use. I’ve installed the Firefox addon ColorZilla. This little addon sits in the status bar and is packed with [...]

When installed, this add-on (located at https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/321) displays the Google PageRank and Alexa rank, highlights keywords and no follow links, includes [...]
Firefox add-on for website translation
There have been several times that I came across a website that was not in English. Now I took French, German and Latin in high school and college but that was a long time ago and I’ve forgotten far more than I remember. Today I got an offer to trade links. It was a PR5 [...]
Nice Firefox add-on for handling links
I am on the internet a lot. There have been more than a few times where I saw a group of links I was interested in and it took me forever to get them all open. With Firefox this is no longer an issue. I am using a Firefox add-on called Linky. It can be [...]
