Firefox Extension

Recently plunged into understanding the variety of extensions available in Firefox. All of them i found it really useful and i would strongly recommend these as the minimum set of firefox Add-ons

• Calculator This is a small extension which will give a small window at the bottom to do your basic mathematical operation. The good thing of this is "ALT + C" takes u to do the calculator section and you can do calculation with not even touching the mouse
• ScribeFire This is the one i am using to publish this Blog. Allows a mechanism to reach your favorite blog site with just a click. It was earlier called Performancing. This plugin needs one time setting of your account to connect it to the blogsite, For example, http://jishnusdiary.blogspot.com/ in the "add blog", would then take you through the process. Once added you can also edit earlier posts.
  
• FasterFox This improves the performance of once browsing. Though i think it improves the speed, not so great.
• FlashGot This improves the download speed of big files. For this one has to first install FlashGet and then install this plugin. This is a download accelerator.
• Coolpreview: This saves you lot of clicks
• FireFTP: In case you are a heavy user of FTP.
• FireShot: Allows to take a screenshot of the webpage and edit it
  
• FlashBlock: Blocks all the flash Ads and only allows it after your explicit approval. This saves you a lot of time with many flash ad websites
  
• FoxClock: Provide you the world clock in the status bar
  
• DailyDilbert: In case you need to take timeoff with some comic strips
  
• IE Tab: For all those websites which have trouble opening or does not work properly in Firefox
  
• File and Folder shortcuts: Your frequently used shortcuts now inside firefox.
  
• PDFDownload: Allows you to decide if PDF has to be opened in browser or with acrobat.
  
• QuickRestart: Sometimes you would need to restart and this provides a button in firefox
  
• StatusbarEx: This keeps tab of the memory consumption of Firefox and allows you to decide when to use your quickrestart button!!
  
• StumpleUpon: Some random search trough web in the field of your interest.
  

All of this works perfectly for me in firefox 3.0. So enjoy Firefox 3 with all the Firefox addons.
