Nice Firefox extensions. Digg, Drop.io and Locator are useful extensions for SEO professionals. I like one of the good social bookmarking of Digg. Thanks for your extensions info.

Into irregular distances I look here by and read the always interesting and well written contributions in this blog. Here I would like to leave once a greeting from Thuringia in Germany!

I like the look of locater. Looks very handy. G maps coverage is getting pretty good down in my unpopulated part of the globe also.

Great job on the plugin reviews. I just installed the Digg one at your suggestion. What would be really cool if there was one toolbar which had all the popular social news sites in one spot. there’s so much toolbar clutter one needs a toolbar organizer of some sort. Tabbed toolbars maybe?

Jon, I think that is in line with IE’s browser market share. You are right that most people don’t want to steer away from what they are used to. IE is their web’s security blanket.. although that term is so wrong in so many levels. LOL

Syahid.. Drop.io is an awesome service and they are gonna get more people using it now just cuz of this add-on.

Will.. FEBE is not just for backing up extensions and themes. It can backup your complete Firefox environment (profile). You can choose to backup bookmarks, preferences, passwords, history, cookies, etc or your complete profile! It also helps you to keep multiple computers have the same config easily.

keith, my wife uses SU and Colorzilla in Firefox 3/Vista without any issues. Wonder what is causing your problem. And yes KeywordLuv is a relatively new plugin and Live Comment Preview doesn’t see that yet. Maybe we should hit up the author with a request,

izwan.. thanks for that tip!

Andrew.. it is very cool indeed. Although it refused to upload my 50MB profile backup to Box.net. It had no problem uploading 30+ individual extensions and other files though.

Todd, true.. Flock is a different beast and definitely meant for people with a widescreen monitor if you want to utilize all the sidebar goodness that comes with it.

I might have to try out that tabbed sidebar.Alyhough much of the stuff is already available as a sidebar, but I almost never have them open.Drag and Drop i.e makes me love the service even more.

Awesome post! I personally love FEBE, and I’m glad that it now runs with FF 3. That’s great news for me!

I just upgraded to Vista recently and since I love FireFox so much, of course I downloaded it. I was running an earlier version on my old XP system but I’m now using the newest version of Firefox and some of my favorite extensions don’t even work! Including StumbleUpon and ColorZilla…

p.s. I just noticed your comment previewer…really cool…only thing, it doesn’t take into account KeywordLuv being installed…that would be a nice feature I s’pose…

anyway…great post

Nice selection, but I don’t quite see the purpose of FEBE? Is it just for people who don’t want to have to manually reinstall plug-ins in case they have to reinstall Firefox?

K, olly – we get about 70% of our readers using IE. I think in the less tech-savvy markets people just don’t bother trying other browsers (or understand why it’s a good idea)

Cheers, Jon

olly, 40% of my readers still use Internet Explorer. Makes me wonder if I should crank up my Firefox posts more. LOL

Dear readers, we still love you no matter what browser you may use.
