The Must-have Firefox Addons

Firefox is my browser of choice – as do tens of millions of other web surfers out there do too.

One of Firefox’s best features are the multitudes of free add-ons any user could easily install. These add-ons give excitement to both Firefox users and developers. Seriously, you’ll never regret downloading these. You can even disable/uninstall them anytime if you get bored or annoyed with the features, though there’s the probability of that NOT HAPPENING. Haha.

And also, you don’t need a fast internet connection to make these goodies run efficiently… just a stable one will do.

You’re just a few clicks away from optimizing your Firefox experience. But if you’re not a Firefox user, you can download the latest version of it for free here. Here are a few of my best-picks:

• StumbleUpon – currently my favorite.  It lets you “stumble” upon various popular websites you probably haven’t visited before. Most websites you stumble into here serve offbeat but cool content.
  
• NoScript – if you doubt your antivirus/antimalware applications, you’d definitely want to install this. It blocks any sort of script that wants to make its way onto your browser (either friendly or malicious). It’s suited for the people who surf new sites a lot.
  
• iMacros – suited for the busybodies out there. iMacros lets you preempt the need for passwords by automating a designated username and password for websites like Yahoo! Mail and Gmail. Repetitive tasks are simplified by this dandy application
  
• Fasterfox – this add-on is amazing. It boosts browsing speeds by more than 150%. A definite must-have for the snail surfer.
  
• DownThemAll – a very nifty download manager that supports pause/resume capabilities. I’ve downloaded most of my MMORPGs with this baby and it rarely fails me.
  
• Brief – if you’re a big fan RSS feeds, this one’s for you. It does not stifle your browsing experience by letting you switching back and forth with a feed manager.  All the reading material you need is on the same page where it should be.
  

There you go. Hope you liked it. Kindly drop a comment if you feel there’s something I’ve missed. I’ll be more than glad to re-edit my post anytime.
