Cool Firefox extensions

Posted by webwhiz on March 13, 2008

Hello,

on my browsing time, which is a lot lately, I’m used to a few very handy add-ons for firefox. I’ve found me some time-saving, eye-catching, fun tools that help me browse so much easier. There are also a few extensions for the web-developers among us…

PicLens : an amazing photo-album add-on. 1. Visit one of the PicLens enabled sites listed above, and then mouseover any image. A special PicLens icon will then appear on top of that image. Click on it and u’ll be amazed…

Download status bar: A nifty solution for the annoying download window in firefox.

Colorzilla: A handy tool for webdevelopers comes with ColorZilla. You can get a color reading from any point in your browser, quickly adjust this color and paste it into another program. You can Zoom the page you are viewing and measure distances between any two points on the page.

Screen grabber: Be able to make a screenshot of your entire webpage including the part that isn’t visible… I’ve used it several times’till now.

Webdevelopment toolbar: When I’m creating websites, this toolbar is used so much that I can’t live without it anymore. Just like Firebug, which I posted here earlier.

Mouse gestures: The most used add-on for me. It simplifies browsing so much that I hate Internet explorer for not having this nifty tool. A new tab is easily created by moving your mouse up, holding the right mouse button, and so on…

Undo Closed tab buttons: no need to say more…

Del.icio.us: A nice shortcut to your delicious page. Also tagging a page with one click on the button.

Boost up your vocabulary !!

Posted by webwhiz on September 25, 2007

After being amazed of my brilliant idea, to make a website where you can find 1 word a day to use in some context during the day at your job, with your ‘homies’, with your family, I searched the internet for the existency of such a website. And what did I see… OFF COURSE, it was once again a DOT NL website which comprimized my brilliant idea :-( .

It was in dutch of course, so hurray for the dutch and flemish people. => visit…

So for the flemish and dutch underneath us. Visit this site and amaze your friends and collegues with the most tidy words for the most casual things or verbs. ;-)

A Belgian shop that sells 1 product a day. A product in promotion with a very special price.

At 0:00h, a new product is available and the product of the day becomes unavailable.

A while ago: A Nintendo Wii for only 199 euro’s in stead of 250 !!

Music maestro

Posted by webwhiz on June 8, 2006

In my browsing time on the web I’ve come across some neat websites where you can amuse yourself for at least a minute or two.

  • An example of a site where you can make a songlyric. After a click on the play button they’ll SING IT FOR YOU.

=> Let them sing it for you

  • Another site I thought it would come in handy some time in my life is a website where you can tap the melody or the rithm of a song you’ve forgotten. With a little luck this website will remember the title and artist. It worked with me when i tapped the rithms of: magyver – airwolf – a-team – and so on.

=> Song Tapper

Well, with this post, i actually think that I’ve spend at least 2 minutes of your time ;)

Finally made blog

Posted by webwhiz on May 18, 2006

After months of consideration I finally made my decision. I'm going to get myself a blog.

I'm planning on getting this blog full of information on different categories.

The categories I'm going to fill are: WebDevelopment – Cars – Babes

I hope I'm going to get enough time to put some articles every week on these subjects.

Well, that's it for now.

C'ya
