5 Must Have Firefox Addons

Throughout my journeys across the internet, Ive come across 5 Firefox addons that I cannot live without. Here they are:

#5: Forecastfox l10n (link)

This addon gives you the weather pulled from weather.com of anywhere that you like. It lets you specify multiple profiles, and will let you customize how the forecast is displayed. By default, it is located in the statusbar, but will let you move it pretty much wherever you like.
Its not as bulky as the original ForecastFox, which is a plus when webbrowser page space is at a minimum due to toolbars.

#4: Organize StatusBar (link)

Thank god for this addon. Without it, my statusbar would look much like an orgy of random colors and icons which would no doubt someday lead to an epileptic seizure. I need this addon! Sorry for no pretty thumbnail picture, but that would defeat the point. This addon will let you remove anything from the statusbar that you find annoying/invasive.

#3: Firefox Extension Backup Extension (FEBE) (link)

Ever had your computer crash? Ever wanted/needed to format your harddrive? Sure youve backed up "My Documents" and burned whatever music that you downloaded to a CD. But theres nothing more annoying after downloading a fresh copy of Firefox than the realization that the perfect way that you had it setup is all now erased until you find that magic combination once again. This addon will backup your Firefox extensions to the directory of your choice, at the time when its most convenient. I hate it when my computer isnt running at its optimum, so I schedule my backups around 4:00am, which accomadates even the latest of nights.

#2: StumbleUpon (link)

This addon has changed my life, and has changed my friends' as well. Everyone I have talked to about this addon has become minorly addicted to it. Think channel surfing on the internet. You simply sign up for the service and tell it your interests, and everytime you click that little green "SU" button on your toolbar, youll be taken to a website that other people with your interests like. If you dont like the site, click "I dont like it" and you probably wont see it again. It has adult filters so it's safe for the kids. If youre hesitant, dont be... its well worth it, although there will be times when you should be doing something else, but only find yourself "stumbling".

#1: Adblock Plus (link)

Im sure the blogspot advertisers are really going to love this one, but I cannot lie. This addon is the single most important thing that I have loaded into Firefox. I seriously cannot handle firefox without this (i install it on machines that I use which dont have it). After installing this addon, you simply click on the list of common ads which you would like to filter, and PRESTO!!! No more ads! If one sneaky ad does manage to get through the filter, you can right click it and block it that way. It seriously is the most worthwhile addon out there. Sorry blogspot, but its THAT good!
