i´m gonna miss it ;)

hehe, been in testmode again ;)

As SL is boring me a bit lately, i did some testing on toys again and indeed found some funny stuff. To be more precise, i been looking for addons for firefox 3, cause updating led to losing some funny ones, wich lead to browsing and testing. ;)

Here some results:

Cooliris (win only) and Cooliris Previews

• first: Cooliris is a picture wall wich indexes searchword related pictures from different sources, like google, flickr and youtube (yes it plays vids too)
  
• second: Cooliris Previous gives you a (navigatable) preview of a website when you hover over a link, very nice stuff

FoxyTunes

• ever been annoyed for having to minimize your browser for changing a song in your player? Also you have a button to look up track and artist just playing now and get results from various pages

Ubiquity

• experimental addon from Mozilla Labs see http://labs.mozilla.com/2008/08/introducing-ubiquity/ for more ;)

Speed Dial

• provides a start page with a choice of 9 configurable site-previews, to quickly access your favourite sites

Google

• there are several google related addons, like googlepedia, google preview, and customize google among they are partly covering each other and i haven´t look into any options yet, so you might wanna have a look on your own ;)
• LOL or you just use http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/scraper.htm for some cleaner search results and (maybe) less data mining ;)
  

Security addons

• Adblock Plus, Flashblock, NoScript - there are tons of others, but that would need a deeper look into it
  

multitouchtouchtouch - anyone got brain-ram-extensions? ;)

and another ;)
