#5 Download Statusbar - Pop up windows are annoying, even if you're the one opening them to download something. Get rid of the downloads window by having your downloads show in your status bar. This is a must-have add-on.#4 Forecastfox - It's simple, put in your zip code, get the weather. I like opening the radar and not seeing anything around me.
#3 Fission - This add-on makes a progress bar show on the address bar. It looks great. Ok it's not really a necessary add-on, but it adds a bucket of style to the bland address bar. The best part is you can change the color if you have a special skin.
#2 Foxmarks - I used to love finding sweet links at work, but I hated having to email them to myself so I can go back to them again at home. What Foxmarks does is download your bookmarks between your computers. So say I find a couple good links at work, save em, go home and there they are on my PC!
#1 StumbleUpon - This thing has caused more late nights than high school Counter-Strike LAN parties. Easily, this is the best time waster ever. Besides videos of kids jumping in 4ft deep puddles, I've also found very interesting applications, tutorials, articles, and pictures. If I could only have one addon, this would be it.
Forecastfox and Fission aren't must haves I guess, but to me they are. Did I leave out your favorite add-on? Let me know!
I'll be posting my SEO (Search Engine Optimization) / Web Develepor FireFox add-ons soon.
