Firefox Addon Review: FireGestures

On that screenshot, FireGestures being executed.

FireGestures is a unique addon that allows you to execute various commands just by clicking and holding your right mouse while moving it to various directions. For normal usage, default configuration should be more than enough, no need to change anything. Just install it and enjoy. To use it, right click somewhere on Firefox screen and start performing designed gesture. Take a look on that screenshot. I performed 'close tab' gesture by holding right click- dragged my cursor down, then dragged it right and finally released it. The tab closed down after I had released the right click.

There are also other gestures available such as keyboard and wheel gestures.

And also a page to customize your mouse gestures,

All in all, this is a very helpful addon. Worth to be installed and used daily.

Firefox Addon Review: Speed Dial


Ah... Speed Dial, one of my favorite addons....

Speed Dial enables you to have a quick shortcut to your most often visited / favorite websites. As showed on that screen shot, there are 9 (3x3) grids available (default value) to load your shortcuts. The setting process is pretty straightforward, install it and set each individual grid shortcut by right-clicking on its thumbnail, click edit and enter your destination link there.

You can have more shortcut by setting the correct value on its configuration pane.

Impressive addon, isn't it? ^^b
