Tinta Kata!

I'm one of the Firefox-freak and have been using this browser since the early 2nd generation. Now Mozilla has taken another step ahead and introduced Firefox 3.5 which is faster and lighter compared to the last.

I like to share the extension or add-ons for this particular browser which you might find them useful in helping you and your browsing session.

1. Greasemonkey

Small, cute litte monkey. Yet useful.

It is a script manager that allows you to customize the webpage the way that you wanted. And you can install any scripts that you've wanted. For example. I've used Greasemonkey and FBPurity script to block any quizzes notification on my Facebook wall.

Install Greasemonkey
Download User Scripts

2. Adblock Plus

If you love to surf blogs and sites that contain annoying ads and banners, which might be disturbing and slowing your session. You can choose to install Adblock Plus. Just block any ads or banners that you didn't wanted and you can have a smooth undisturbed session.

3. TwitterFox

If you are a frequent user of Twitter, and using Firefox in the same time. And you sick with any dekstop application for Twitter. TwitterFox might be handy.

You can tweet directly from Firefox, send direct messages, or reply to your fellow Twitter friends for instance. Without having to run another application.

If you are browsing a website. And you didn't understand what it is about. Then ImTranslator is a good extension to help you translate it.
