10 Fantastic Firefox extensions that will make your web use more pleasant and productive

I am an avid Firefox user. I gave up on Internet Explorer in the stone age, and have only used Safari (on the Mac and PC) for a few small tasks. Firefox is just such a great browser! It blocks popups, warns me of phishing scams, and runs reliably and quickly on my Mac.

Another fantastic element of Firefox is that it is constantly improving, and that there are many individual developers out there making 'extensions' to help improve your web experience.

I use a few extensions, among them are Zotero (which is a great plugin that allows you to save academic information from articles, web pages, books, and journals, for easy insertion into your MS Word document (it even works with Open Office!)).

However, here are 10 fantastic extensions to Firefox that will be a great help in your web browsing!

Let me know if there are any others that we should be aware of.

I'd be interested in knowing more about Zoteri. Sounds useful.
