Mozilla, mozilla
Feb. 10th, 2005 02:10 pmThere are a bunch of new extensions available for Firefox 1.0, and I thought I'd link to a couple particularly good ones:
Session Saver. The coolest extension EVER. Well, after Tabbrowser, anyway. This works, completely and totally and in every way. The Firefox default session saver only works sometimes (in my experience) and doesn't work if your computer crashes or something. I've had the Session Saver extension for a week now, and it rocks my world, because I'm using a w98 computer 'cause my laptop's broken, and thus crashing a lot. No matter how hard I crash -- I can crash hard enough that ctrl-alt-del doesn't work -- Session Saver restores my browser exactly the way it was before I crashed. Word. Right down to where I was on a page. I love it.
MapIt. This is for those times when you're reading about a shop and you don't know where it is and you have to go to all that trouble to copy the address and open Mapquest or Yahoo maps or whatever and paste it in. No more. Now I can select an address and right-click and there's an option right there on the context menu. It's the little things that make your browsing experience so much better...
And... GCache. I love this extension so, for now when I come to a webpage that didn't load properly, all I have to do is right-click to view it in the google cache. My context menu, if you couldn't tell, is now miles long.
