I decided to take a bit of time this morning and update to Mozilla Firefox 1.5 and took a look at the latest and greatest extensions. Here is my personal list of must-have extensions for both productivity and fun.

  • Foxpose View all of your tabs in one window like in OSX Exposé. Fun!
  • Web developer Toolbar The defacto standard plugin if you do any web development.
  • IE Tab Open Internet Explorer within a Firefox tab. Very useful for cross-browser testing.
  • Dictionary Tooltip Double-click a word to get a popup dictionary definition.
  • Foxytunes Control your music apps via your browser toolbar.

Have fun!
