Tech Highlights Week 2.5: Top 5 Firefox Addons

I’ve received a few requests from Firefox users to compile a top 5 extensions list for Firefox as I already did with Chrome. Here are my top choices:

Greasemonkey

Greasemonkey

This 100 per cent must-have add-on also works for Chrome. Using Javascript, Greasemonkey allows you to customize literally everything about Firefox, enhance YouTube, Facebook, Reddit and more! Just visit www.userscripts.org for free scripts. I might do a top scripts compilation later.

Adblock Plus

Adblock Plus

Another must-have extension. It blocks almost all annoying advertisements. It also disables video ads on YouTube and hides annoying images on any website. It is completely configurable so you can use it to block anything you want (Avoiding Rebecca Black has never been easier)

Stylish

Stylish

Just like with Chrome, Stylish allows you to install themes for any website you use (including Facebook).

.

Engrish

ImTranslator

Performs real time translations for a multitude of different languages. Also includes a spell checker, a text to speech program and a virtual keyboard.

Tabs

Tab Mix Plus

Tab Mix Plus enhances Firefox tabs and allows you to duplicate tabs, control tab focus, undo closed tabs, and much more. It also includes a full-featured session manager.

.

Honorable mentions:

Integrated Gmail – Makes everything in Gmail collapsible <–+–>

Colorful Tabs – Makes tabs colored

Gyarr, my name is Ali Vira, and I like to think of myself as a deceptively small bundle of wires, diodes, and capacitors. My favorite genres of music include Classic Rock and Progressive Dutch Math Rock Opera Fusion. I'm a bit eclectic and enjoy yelling at kids to get off my lawn. I look forward to taking over your planet soon!
