I have quite a few installed and I love them. Just wondering what everyone else is using.

I currently have the following installed:
  1. AdBlock Plus (nice to have)
  2. Colorful Tabs (LOVE♥)
  3. Download Status Bar (LOVE♥)
  4. Fast Dial (Couldn't live without it!)
  5. IE View (comes in handy)
  6. Kaboodle (makes it easy to add to my Kaboodle list)
  7. Tab Preview (LOVE♥)
  8. Xmarks (a MUST if you work on more than one computer: synchronizes your bookmarks and passwords so that you can access them from any computer)
So enlighten me and tell me what you are using. Do I need it? Do I want it? Is it just a fun addon? Give me the scoop-aroo girlies! :)

Hugs,
Eva
 
I LOOOVE the Morning Coffee app. It allows me to open all the blogs and what not I want to read and on certain days as well.
 
Don't know about #4 and 5, but ditto the Morning Coffee. I actually use google reader for my blog reading, but sites visit a lot like SSD, my CT forums, etc. all go on there. It instantly pops up a tab for each page you specify when you open FF.

:)
 
Oh Stephanie...you NEED fast dial. It's awesome, awesome, awesome. :)

I have Morning Coffee but haven't used it in a while...but I only visit about 4 sites repeatedly throughout the day, so I don't really need it.

I can't think of any other faves that aren't on your list, Eva...except maybe the Undo Closed Tabs Button extension...because I'm repeatedly closing tabs and then going "doh, I wasn't done there..." haha.
 
I love colorful tabs but it seems to be glitching with version 3.5.1. For some reason I can't shut the first tab I open no matter how many other tabs I have open. If I disable colorful tabs I can close the first tab, so for now I have it disabled.

I like Cool Iris for photo viewing, Google Notepad (also not compatible with 3.5.1 though I can force it to work with Nightly Tester Tools), FEBE for backing up Firefox data, Flashblock (Love this!), Personas for Firefox and Reminder Fox (I use it to keep track of challenges)

oh I'm a recent firefox convert after I downloaded IE 8 and it crashed more than it was up...

What is fast dial and a few of those others.. :)
 
I have almost all that you described installed too. And:
Auto Shutdown
Tab Mix Plus (allows you duplicate tabs, control tab focus, undo closed tabs and windows...)
TwitterFox
Google Reader watcher
Bookmark Duplicate Detector
 
Ooh, ReminderFox looks awesome! Anyway, I can't live without Download Them All.. Makes downloading such a breeze... :)
 
I LOVE the Smart Bookmarks! Use it all the time!!!!! And the Download Status bar.

I have the morning coffee, but I never use it. I need to redo it. I used it to open CT forums in the morning...lol!
 
i use Personas. you can pick from different looks for your toolbar like flowers or paint splats. its pretty neat. i don't know what else i have, lol.
 
Linkwad is my favourite one, I have a different wad for various sites I do challenges at it also works great for CT assignments and uploading to all the different sites required. I use morning coffee for daily downloads at different sites. Kaboodle is useful and then there's one called read it later which is great especially when going through google reader and not wanting/having time to read a really long post I just save it in read it later for when I have more time.

Click to expand...

That's why I love permatabs. My 5 spots that I'm in all the time are permanent tabs in FF and I can't close them. Everything else opens up after them.
