5 Great Firefox Add-ons
From time to time, I really have to post something concrete and useful here ![]()
Therefore I want to inform you about 5 Firefox add-ons, which I find very useful!
The 5 add-ons has been choosed due care. In the early days I used to have huge amounts of plugins, add-ons, bars etc. but I got very tired of all that shitty crap, and now I got 1 bar (StumbleUpon) and 5 add-ons which make my day much easier
Quite minimalistic actually?
Anyway…I want to share those 5 add-ons with you, here they are:
- GooglePreview 2.1.5
This add-on inserts preview images (thumbnails) of web sites and Amazon products into the Google and Yahoo search results pages. By using this you don’t have to visit the site if you want to know what it looks like, it has saved me a lot of time, maybe it’ll do that to you too?
- IE Tab 1.3.3
This add-on is great, especially if you’re a webdesigner, it lets you easily (by one click) see how a website looks like in Internet Explore. Very useful and time-saving in the development of a crossbrowser-able website
- Tab Mix Plus 0.3.6
Tabbed browsing is brilliant, it creates fast navigation through sites, and gives you a structured overview. Because I use tabbed browsing that much (I’m surfing a lot!), I need to have some options in this field. The only add-on (I’ve found) which gives me sufficient options, is Tabbed Mix Plus. It is as simple as that
- Session Manager 0.5.3
In old days I used GreenBrowser (don’t know if it exists anymore?). One of the greatest features about GreenBrowser was that it restored the pages if you closed your browser. Not only if the browser crashed, but also when you just closed it. By that I could explore some sites one day, and continue the next. I’ve waited for this feature to join FireFox for decades, and now it surely has
- Web Developer 1.1.4
I use this add-on to harvest knowledge on how webdesigners build websites. When I come by a site which looks great and is well designed, it’s nice to have an option which allows me to look “behind the scenes”. The Webdeveloper add-on carries a lot of features, and you are able to know almost everything about a given site.
Hope you found some of them interesting…Cheers!

In FireFox, under the startup options, there is a drop down menu labeled “When FireFox Starts:” and one of the options in it is “Show my Windows and Tabs from last time”.
