kEnny's Favorite E-Tools... Part Deux!!

For this post, we'll focus on my favorite Firefox extensions, and which ones you can use with Flock. Extensions make Firefox fun! I use a variety of extensions, depending on the computer I am using. Here they are in no particular order:

• Adsense Notifier: It's really funny that I use this extension, as I don't seem to give any of the advertisers on this blog much in the way of business. It gives you a quick, unobtrusive look at how much Google is going to pay you for all your hard work. I don't know if it works on Flock. I haven't had any reason to try it yet. :^(
• del.ico.us Bookmarks: I got turned on to del.ico.us through using Flock. After running my favorites in the same manner for quite some time, I was looking for a new way to work them. While I don't use it over built-in favorites, I also don't leave it out.
• Download Manager Tweak: This one adds extra options to Firefox's Download Manager.
  
• Download Sort: I used to be a great fan of this extension, but numerous security updates have hobbled it to the point of being nearly useless. Being a big collector of skins for various forms of software (Winamp, WindowBlinds, etc.), this tool was indispensable for filtering different file types into separate folders.
• Gmail Manager: I used to use Gmail Notifier, but the added functionality of inbox previews, and support for multiple Gmail accounts made me switch. Unfortunately, the mail count functionality doesn't work in Flock! I hope one or the other gets fixed soon.
• GMarks: This one takes Google Bookmarks and makes it part of your built-in bookmarks as well. If I'm ever out of contact with one of my own computers, I can still get to my regularly visited sites this way, and synchronize my bookmarks across multiple computers.
• Google Calendar Notifier: This is the next most convenient item to your cell phone with text messaging for keeping up with appointments on your Google Calendar(s). It provides you with quick mouse-over access to upcoming events, and provides pop up alerts as well. You can color code each calendar to make them easy to tell apart.
  
• Google Send to Phone: This isn't real complicated, but can be incredibly handy. High lite any text on a web page, then with just a couple more clicks you can send it to your cell phone via SMS.
  
• ForecastFox: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, I've been a fan of the weather for many years. And you never know if the forecast is really going to be right of not. ForecastFox gives you upcoming forecasts as well as radar data, so you have quick access to local weather information from Accuweather.
  
• FoxyTunes: Foxy Tunes brings the fun to web browsing, after all that productive crap I already mentioned. FoxyTunes acts as an unobtrusive remote control for your favorite media player.

Do you have any favorites firefox extensions not listed here? Tell me what you like and how you use it. If I like it, I'll add it to the list!
