My Top Five Firefox Extensions

1. Move the Tabs - Move the tab bar to the bottom of the firefox window or on the left or right. Very useful feature, in case you do not want to keep moving your mouse to the top of the browser window for changing tabs. The code can be found here.

2. Session Saver - A must-have tool for people who see frequent browser crashes or OS reboots. SessionSaver restores your browser on restart with windows, tabs, and even things you were typing-exactly- as you left it. This is a very handy tool as it is immune to OS or browser crashes. It simply restores everything as it was when the shutdown/crash happened.

3. Del.icio.us - This is a new extension for Firefox. Now I can save all my bookmarks directly from my browser window, without leaving the page at all. Bookmarking with Del.icio.us is a piece of cake now. The buttons can be placed anywhere on the browser menu and you can access and post your bookmarks with a single click. When posting, a pop-up window opens up thus obviating any need to leave the page. A neat feature.

4. Super DragAndGo - One of my favourite extensions. Simply drag a link or anything like a uri (e.g. “gagankaul.com” ), and throw it to anywhere blank on the webpage to open the it in a new tab. No more pressing the control button to open links or pages in a new tab, and no right clicking either. Simply drag the link and drop it. A very neat extension.

5. Web Developer - Absolutely a MUST for web developers. The extension provides quick links to all the standard developer tools, the most outstanding being the ability to edit CSS.
