Firefox Extension Dream Package #3 - The Quirky Ones

Saint_Michael
Well I thought I go browse the add ons and extensions once again but this time I thought I go for the quirky, oddball, and somewhat useful stuff to add to firefox. As usual I give a brief description of what it is, what version it can work on and its download page.


Advance Dork

I found this one to be very interesting due to the fact it makes remember googles operators or use them on the fly. Googles operates of course are things like this site:, intitle: ext:. As fr its usefulness I would say it is a pretty good tool to have because it can be use by web designers, people doing research, and getting your search results pretty specific so you don't have to spend hours combing through pages of results

Firefox Version:

All Versions

DOWNLOAD:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2144


Router Status

This add on I would say be somewhat useless, as most people can check this kind infomation on the admin panel for. Although the connections and the load average stats is usually stuff you can't find on the admin panel so like I said it is somewhat useless but thats up to the those who download it

Firefox Version:

2.x-3.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5544


Autofill Forms

Well I would say this would have its benefits especially for the people doing those surveys and junk, but if you want to cut the down the time it takes to fill out the form especially if use the same info for it.

Firefox Version:

All Versions

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4775


WebSitePulse Current Status

Now with this tool could be beneficial for website admins, and web application programs as this add-on lives you real time data if your stuff is good or is having a problem. The only downside to this little program is that you have to register at www.websitepulse.com; though it is free to sign I think it kind of corny for the need to do so.

Firefox Version:

1.5-2.0.0

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5516


WebMail Notifier

The title should say it all about this tool, and that it lets you know "YOU GOT MAIL", with various email accounts. which of course are all the major players in email; gmail, ymail, hotmail, and some places I never heard of. Interestingly enough if you have other email account that are not support you can design your own script to let you know you got mail.

Firefox Version:


All Versions

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4490

Visual Bookmarks

Well the best way I can put this is that your bookmarks get a new look, and of course more issues with firefox eating you RAM, as this lets you take snapshots of the website and you can see it that way instead of the good ole fashion text bookmark. To me this is useless and I tell you why I got to much crap on firefox and this will kill my RAM like that, but I will give it a test run just to see if I am wrong about it.

Firefox Version:

2.0 - 2.x.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5396

Mr Uptime

I would have to say this would be the first quirky add on that been developed, and from the looks of it it seems Mr uptime auto-refreshes that page until you don't get that 404 error or somehow your connection times out. Its got some interesting features but I would say besides it's quirkiness it saves you the time of going back and forth refresh the page 1000 times.

Firefox Version:

2.0 - 2.x.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5490

Google Icon

Well this is my next quirky add on, or if you want to call it for what it does and that is it spices up the search results by adding the favicon next to the page. I would say it has it benefits as you can find out who uses the favicon and who doesn't. It is completely useless in every way but I wouldn't mind a image or two on my search results.

Firefox Version:

1.5 - 2.x.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4676

SiteDelta

This would be my first oddball add on due to the fact it checks for changes and updates to the sites you have listed under it. I don't think too many people care in the sense that they know the site updates regularly. Granted depending on how big the site is this could help navigate to the new stuff a lot quicker.

Firefox Version:

1.5 - 3.x.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4337

Addictive Typing Lessons

Well and I thought I have to take classes and buy expensive software to get my typing skills top notch. So if your bored then work on your typing skills and see if you can type at like 60-70 WPM. I dub this add-on quirky, just because there is stuff out there that is better in learning to type fast, and accurate.


Firefox Version:

1.5 - 2.x.x

DOWNLOAD:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2828


pageaddict

So you want to know what websites you vist and spend the most time on well, I don't laugh.gif, but with this add on it tells you just that. Pageaddict gives yo ua summary for the day what websites you went to, how long you spent on them etc. etc. Hey maybe we can find out who reallly spends the most time on trap laugh.gif.

1.5 - 2.x.x
