The official Firefox 3-compatible release for Tab Mix Plus is out. There are a number of improvements over the previous version, but the important thing is that it’s finally official. I hacked together a version a couple months back, and while I’m glad I was able to help, I’m even more glad that a true [...]

Firefox with Greasemonkey: If you’ve ever searched for your website content on Google (and chances are you have), you’ll agree with me that it can be difficult to find your material amongst the results.

For some reason, the developer of TMP has not released a version that’s compatible with Firefox 3. At any rate, I’ve taken the liberty of modifying the add-on that worked with Firefox [...]

Update: The copy of the add-on in the official Firefox repositories now works with 3.0.
One of my favorite plugins to use with Firefox/Twitter is the TinyURL add-on. However, the add-on isn’t yet FF3 friendly. Somone has taken the liberty to make it so. You can download the file here. Simply save the .xpi file [...]
