All Time Top Firefox Internet Browser Addons

My Favourite and Powerful Firefox Plugins

top-firefox-addonsEvery Browser needs to have a good set of browser plugins or addons to maximise the use of the internet, the browser and the computer on which they are connected on.

How I feel without my browser plugins

Without my plugins I am like a person who is alone on a tiny boat in the middle of the ocean without an engine, a sale, a life jacket and a compass. The ocean and its waves do all the controlling. I am at their mercy and they direct where I have to turn and go. In this situation I am in total loss of control and subjected to harsh waves, thundery waters and winds along with unforgiving and ruthless climate. I have lost all my faith and perseverance to survive this outcome.

This is how I handle those CPU hogging websites

I am a control freak when it comes to using my computer. I will never relinquish power to technology! If I can’t control it, I won’t use it!

As has been for many years now I make sure that these plugins are always present on a computer that I am using even if it’s only for a short use.

The browser has become the main application of choice on any computer and smart phone. I have yet to come across a computer or a smart phone without one.

Did you also know that the very first application that gets installed on a computer is perhaps the Browser, right after setting the wireless or network drivers. Yep, that is why the browser needs to be under your control and behave the way you want it to behave. It is your computer and it is certainly your browser.

Advantages of Browser Addons

The advantages of taking back the control of your computer and the browser is many. You’re making more time for yourself based on working faster. Every few seconds saved throughout the day add up to considerable amount of time. Even better, you will work much faster since your computer and browser is now more responsive.

Slow computers and browsers do more than waste time. They can increase anxiety levels and cause high stress. Stressed out people are inefficient workers. Remove the stress and the work just flows much faster and further. Listen, an ad here and an ad there add up to your time wasted.

There are also other addons that make you work quicker. For example one of my favourite addons is the Fire Gesture. It basically speeds up what I am doing. Then there is the Yet Another Smooth Scroller that puts your Firefox into hyperactivity mode. You can now scroll through pages at lightning speed. Just install and try it out.

Anyhow, here are the top addons I use. These are by far not the only powerful addons or plugins that is out there but they are the ones I’ve come to rely on for optimal browser experience.

That is a lot of addons but I must say that they do help increase the speed of my computer by eliminating the client side scripting (javascript). Javascript can bring down Mega Bytes of unnecessary code down from the internet – and most of that is not for your benefit.

I would like your feedback. Tell me which browser addons you use that is not on the list.
