Sindhu’s Firefox Add-ons List

We can’t live without Firefox and it’s add-ons, right? I’d like to list the ones I use but Sindhu’s recent post just about covers it all and includes some of her own suggestions. So go read that.

Firefox 2

Fission is really cool. I suggest you get that. [Highly recommended.]

Download Statusbar is a must have if you hate the one second delay before Firefox’s download manager loads. [Highly recommended.]

  1. Suren says:

    fission is a waste of time and money.
    along these lines, what about firefox themes?

    yaaru pa sindhu?



  2. Marc Z says:

    Since I use the Windows classic theme, I don’t need a Firefox theme. It wouldn’t fit in.

    Sindhu is a recent acquaintance. She’s cool.



  3. Arun says:

    Add-ons given in her blog were quite useful. I installed a few but dunno whether I’ll use it though.



  4. George says:

    Interesting, it’d be overkill for me though, I’m not a pro browser.

    Fission + Full screen should be good.



  5. sindhu says:

    hey uhm sorry but ive moved to sedater , so u mind updating the link to this? http://www.sedater.com/wordpress/year/month/firefox-addons-i-use/



  6. sindhu says:

    and @Suren : since when did you start paying for FF addons that you sed “fission is a waste of time and money.”????

    and am i sindhu :) lolz



  7. Marc Z says:

    Suren was referring to nuclear fission as a joke. Link updated.



  8. Suren says:

    hi, sindhu. well i was looking for more of an intro..

    when you get to know me you’ll find out that nothing i say should be taken literally. i just meant that fission was not very useful thats all.

    and when you get to know marc you’ll find out that misinterpreting things and hypocrisy are his specialties.



  9. Marc Z says:

    Like he said, nothing he says is literal.

    (Pwned!)



  10. Arun says:

    @ Suren

    Misinterpreting things like this one? Hahaha!!



  11. Marc Z says:

    That wasn’t misinterpretation. Suren disqualified his final statement with his previous statement. Go learn English.



  12. Suren says:

    yes, all i say isn’t to be taken literally including the initial statement, hence making the final statement plausible.

    (double pwnage)

    arun, marc is catching up, do something if you want to keep the title.



  13. Marc Z says:

    You said ‘nothing i say should be taken literally’ and ‘all i say isn’t to be taken literally’. Self contradiction. You lose.

    And how do you get double pwnage directly without first getting single pwnage?



  14. Suren says:

    how is that contradictory? i rephrased the same sentence. both have the same meaning. don’t try to shift focus from the pwnage.

    its a double pwnage because i pwned your pwnage, infact its more than double because both pwnages work in synergy.



  15. Marc Z says:

    You corrected yourself, not rephrased.



  16. Suren says:

    its the same meaning expressed in two different sentences hence i rephrased.



  17. Marc Z says:

    You can’t go modifying stuff you said and then claim pwnage. Just does not happen.



  18. Suren says:

    thats absolutely true. but i didn’t modify stuff. both those sentences have the same meaning.



  19. George says:

    You said ‘nothing i say should be taken literally’ and ‘all i say isn’t to be taken literally’. Self contradiction. You lose.

    You can contradict yourself by saying the same thing?

    Nothing I say should
    Anything I say shouldn’t

    ^—negative shifted—^
    He moved the negative from the beginning to the end. The points of the arrows in fact.



  20. Marc Z says:

    George, is your weird ‘diagram’ supposed to help?



  21. George says:

    Oh sorry.

    Nothing I say should
    Anything I say shouldn’t
    \/
    —>—->—>—>–>-^



  22. Suren says:

    stop rubbing it in george.



  23. Marc Z says:

    More like making a fool of himself.

    You should teach engineering mechanics. The rate of suicides among engineering students would rise exponentially.



  24. Suren says:

    Nothing I say should
    v
    —>->—>—>–>->->->->-v
    Anything I say shouldn’t

    this is a better diagram.



  25. Suren says:

    oops, the arrow got extended. rendered differently when its posted.



  26. George says:

    Haha, oh yeah, suren, your diagram makes more sense :) In any case the point is the same.



  27. George says:

    More like making a fool of himself.

    You should teach engineering mechanics. The rate of suicides among engineering students would rise exponentially.

    Heheh, okay okay, I’ll explain. See, it’s like this. The negative moved from the beginning of the sentence to the end. The first diagram was supposed to show the two parts that could be interchanged, hence arrows at both ends.



  28. Marc Z says:

    If you were in engineering you would have made a nice slideshow with horribly clashing colours and Times New Roman (or Comic Sans).



  29. George says:

    Comic Sans ROFL! Hahaha, I know just what you mean hahaha. But naw, I don’t do slideshows :)



  30. Marc Z says:

    They love Comic Sans.

    I’ll teach you to make those type of slide shows. Instant optical nerve damage.



  31. George says:

    Horribly clashing colours too, I presume? Maybe we can get some middle ground between my low-contrast and their weirdness.



  32. Marc Z says:

    Use put a solid blue bar bisected by a yellow one along with rainbow coloured text in your colour scheme and you’re done.



  33. George says:

    Argh! Mayhem!



  34. Marc Z says:

    Forget text flying in from the right and left and every which way. Animation, they call it.



  35. George says:

    Oh no, not that. I’ll choose the typewriting animation and that other one called ‘laser’ or something like that.



  36. Chetan says:

    My college’s black and white monitor negates the clashing colours. Maybe if I search enough I’ll find a 5 1/4″ floppy disk drive.



  37. Marc Z says:

    Damn the laser is horrible.

    Chetan, you might find punch cards.



  38. George says:

    I have a couple of 5 1/4 ” floppies here just in case you do. They were here somewhere. Pretty cool.



  39. Marc Z says:

    Didn’t you use them up as CD cases way back?



  40. George says:

    *indignant voice* No I didn’t!



  41. Marc Z says:

    Someone I know did that. I’m pretty sure it was you. Whoever it was, own up!



  42. raghav_sr says:

    I need those floppies ! please donate if you can find em!
