Addictive Typing Lessons
Addictive Typing Lessons is a Firefox add-on which turns Firefox into a typing tutor. After you install it, and restart Firefox, there will be an icon that looks like a keyboard in the lower right corner of the toolbar. Click on it to start the session.
Book Burro
I haven’t shilled for the Book Burro Firefox extension recently. Once you install Book Burro, it pops up a little window in the upper left hand side of your window when it detects that you are looking at a book on the web. (I notice it most often when I am looking at Amazon Books. After you tell Book Burro your zip code in the preferences, it will use World Cat to find the closest copy of that book in a public library. If the closest library happens to be your library, you can click on the link and it will allow you to place a hold on the book. (Of course, this assumes that your library is using SIRSI, or some other system World Cat understands.) For bibliophiles who are trying not to spend all their money on books, this is very useful.
Copy and Go
To solve the frustration of hyperlinks that aren’t clickable, Copy and Go is a small Firefox extension that allows you to mark a text hyperlink, right click it, select Copy and Go, and the link will open in the new tab.
FoxClocks
FoxClocks has become one of my favorite firefox add-ons. It is very good for when you have to deal with multiple time zones and don’t want to figure out what time it is on the east cast when you work in Colorado.
Link Alert
Link Alert is a useful Firefox Add-on. Among other things, it will tell you when clicking on a link will open a new window.
Make Link :: Firefox Add-ons
Make Link is a Firefox add-on that allows you to copy links in a variety of formats, including those you specify yourself.
Unhide Menubar Add-on
Have you ever been in a pop-up window (like Haloscan comments use) and wished you could see the menubar and toolbar? If you use Firefox, and install the Unhide Menubar Add-on you can get the menu bar and toolbar to reappear for that window.
Tabs Open Relative :: Firefox Add-ons
In the default install of Firefox, new tab open at the end of the list of tabs. The Tabs Open Relative :: Add-ons changes this behavior, so that the new tab opens after the current one. I strongly prefer this behavior, and really miss it when I use a version of Firefox without it.
Morning Coffee
Morning Coffee is a Firefox Add-on which allows you to set up groups of tabs that can be opened all at once. This is particularly good for those sites which change fairly often, and resolutely refuse to add an RSS feed.
