Firefox Extensions: Your favorite or most useful
communityfair:
My favorite is image zoom. It is really good.
MilesAhead:
Anyone using the DuckDuckGo AddOn? I'm trying it now. Not sure exactly why. I can see adding it to the search engine list. But I'm wondering what the AddOn does for me other than stick a DDG Button on the toolbar?
cyberdiva:
MilesAhead, I've wondered about this, too. I already have DDG set as the engine in the Firefox search box, and I just found that if I highlight a word or words and right-click, one of the options is "Search DuckDuckGo for [search term]". So what more could an add-on provide? (Indeed, I even checked my add-on list to be sure that the DDG Add-on wasn't already there.)
tomos:
I just tried the Chrome Duckduckgo addon yesterday - it gives the options to search in Amazon and various other sites and combinations. Haven't tried the FF add-on (have recently started using it as my main search though).

maybe it was made with respect to the saying, "out of sight, out of thought" (or how the English version may go), so a normal entry in the search box only wouldn't make it a forgotten option.

edit:
Regarding the wording "so a normal entry in the search box only wouldn't make it a forgotten option" - well, I am not sure what I said, but I know what I meant. Hope you get it as well ;-)
