Finding links for extensions
Submitted by BlueCockatoo on Sun, 2006-07-30 00:40.
If you download that All-in-one sidebar and install it, you can view all your extensions and the links to the pages where you downloaded them from. It even polls and lets you know when there are new versions out there for all of them. It is such a cool extension...
I don't have the links handy
I don't have the links handy but here are the ones I can remember off the top of my head that I use:
Web Developer - a million useful things all in one sexy sidebar
Gmail Notifier - tells me when i have email. rarely.
Del.icio.us - lets me tag things and make messy categories.
HTML Validator - shows me the errors/validations of each website i'm viewing.
View Source Chart - makes crazy chart things in the source. sexy.
