Firefox 3

Jun 19, 2008 09:07

I'm just beginning to see how interesting this new version of FF is. But I've found some really nifty new addons that take advantage of some stuff and/or make what I used to do (save offline to read) MUCH easier.

See this article on lifehacker and just follow the links all over. *G* Currently I'm waiting to try Read It Later. And while del.icio. ( Read more... )

I like the master password option. I'm terrible at remembering passwords, and adding random passwords to the dozens I already need to memorize for work, drives me batty. The master password is so nice, now I only have to remember one password for all my fandom needs. ^o~

I've never felt good about master passwords, but I totally get why someone might. *G*

I wasn't sure about it when I first heard about it, but once I got used to it...I'm kinda lovin' it. The one thing that disappoints me about FF3 is the fact that I really don't like the look of it. I want a new skin that's all pretty and nice to look at. -_-;;; Sorry, apparently, I am that shallow.

Favicon is my new best friend. I've got a bunch of tabs that always sit in the top left of my screen (google, lj, fark, delicious, a couple others, and I don't need the full tab for it. I know where they are, placement wise, so having that tinytiny icon is fantabulous.

Tabmix plus got really weird for me, which may be a favicon problem, or might be because it's still in beta. I'm gonna wait for it to go official before I try and figure out which is which.

I miss LJ-hook like crazy.

Aim isn't working for me. Blegh.

Hmm. Sadly, I am not that organized in my reading. Also gmail and LJ get their own windows. Because I am a TAB WHORE. *G* But I will look into it.

AIM: Yeah it didn't work for me yesterday for a bit either. Today someone just poked me to check. So it's not just you. Maybe they are doing network upgrades?

I'm waiting until I hear everyone loving it to distraction, which is my usual MO. The reason for it, of course, is that I'm used to MicroSnot's shitty 'upgrades' and have let that spill over into everything else.

But I think I'll upgrade soon so Mark will stop snickering at me.

I'm loving it a LOT. There are tiny issues (the biggest with CSS) and some addons that haven't caught up. But otherwise it's shiny!

So far, I'm just loving how fast and shiny it is. There was a moment of ZOMGWTF when tabmix refused to work, but I found the proper addon and got all my tabs back. Whew. *g*
