Well, I guess I was too hopeful that my previous entry would be enjoyed by others. However, as promised, I would share my Firefox extensions that I also use at work. These are my Firefox plugins, alphabetized, that I find to be "essential" to my work, at work. I do not use any non-default or customized themes.


Note: Some people suggest to use Firebug or Web Developer...use both! Also, use of BugMeNot can get you in trouble as you can more or less (unintentionally) be attacking a server when you try multiple logins if one doesn't work. I've actually had an entire IP block banned because of my use of the tool from a site (whoops). Use it sparingly.

    I'm a big fan of DownThemAll! (download manager) and Live HTTP Headers (allows viewing of all headers when loading a page).

    Luckily I don't download much that would be beneficial in using a download manager. Since I run scheduled tasks on my machine at night, it has to be left on at all times, so if I do have something large to download, I simply start the process before I leave work. ;-)

    As far as LiveHTTPHeaders, I find that my TamperData and WebDeveloper extensions fill that gap quite well. Before the Web Developer Toolbar existed, I too liked that extension. Thanks for the input!!!

    I keep my copy of Firefox pretty light. I have the Web Developer Toolbar mainly for its resize dropdown; when I leave full screen, I like a nice 1024x768 window. I need Google Toolbar to check PageRank as that still matters for some of the things I do. The only other addon I use is StumbleUpon... solely for entertainment :-)
