Extensions are VERY helpful. Why should you have to use 10 different
programs when it can be achieved using one?
1. FOXYTUNES - I can switch my WinAmp song right through Firefox.
2. FIREFTP - I can FTP right through Firefox without using any extra memory or hard drive space.
3. DEFEAT RIGHT CLICK - I can defeat the no right click javascript.
4. DICTIONARY.COM EXTENSION - I can find out the definition of a word I dont know without having to go to a different URL since the definition loads up in a window inside
5. SEARCH EXPANDER - I can search different search engines without having multiple toolbars (which slow down IE even more)
6. WEB DEVELOPER/COLORZILLA - I can get the RGB or HEX code of a color I might want to use in a layout or image edit
7. AD-BLOCK - I dont need external software to block pop-ups and ad banners (yes you can right click on an ad and hit "delete" and the ad is gone forever
8. BUG ME NOT - I can get login information for sites [ex. nytimes.com] without having to sign up for it
9. USER SWITCH - I can have multiple interfaces for the different people who use the computer (ex different home pages, etc). I can also Password Protect internet access.
10. VIEW SOURCE WITH - I can view the source of the page with a Web Development software instead of Notepad.
11. FLASHGOT - I can download Flash movies without knowing where the flash file is on the server
12. RSS READER - I can view RSS feeds without any additional clients
These are just a few of the USEFUL extensions. Extensions make browsing the web much easier as well as freeing your hard drive from having to download huge files to install and manage.
