If you’re still using Internet Explorer.. you deserve the viruses and spyware you are plagued with. The better alternative has been Firefox for quite some time. But you knew that. So I thought I’d just post my tweaks.

I run Firefox off linux at home and off my iPod using the PortableApps version when I’m at a windows machine.

Essential plugins:
Foxmarks - allows you to synchronize bookmarks across different computers
Tab X 0.9.2 - adds a “close tab” X to browser tabs
Adblock with FilterSetG (not plus) - stops advertisements before you see them whith a customizable black list.
FoxyTunes - controls your media player from your browser window. No floaties or system trays to mess with. Mine is set to control dBpowerAMP, which also runs off my iPod (very cool)
Gmail Manager - allows you to check and manage multiple Google Mail accounts.
Brushed (Theme) - cool silver theme for Firefox

Just FYI. And also so I can find them all again if I need to.

We had a baby last night. It took me longer to get her website online than it did for Allison to deliver her.
