My indispensable FireFox Addons

leave a comment »

I’ve been having a couple friends asking me what I’ve been using for firefox a lot lately, so here are to the tools that help me get more done.

TwitterFox- Notifies you of your friends updates, also allows you to update directly from Firefox.

Foxmarks- Foxmarks Sync’s all of my bookmarks on all installations of firefox on all of my computers.

Flagfox- Tells me where the current website I’m viewing, where there web server is located; also including the ip address of the server(s).

Firebug- A great tool for both web designers and web developers, helping you to inspect and edit html and css files, debug javascript, and monitor network and file usage; including loading times!

FirePHP- A great firefox extension to debug ajax, using a php call function.

Google Gears- Google Gears allows you to let normal web applications operate offline in a desktop environment. Its a great application for WordPress installations, Google Docs, and Myspace (If you still use it).

Prism- Prism is a great firefox addon for making websites launch as a normal application on your desktop. This addon will work with any website, twitter, facebook, google. Check it out for yourself!

Know any other good addons please post a comment and let me know!
