Nice. Personally I use Tab Mix Plus (setup for a max of 3 rows of tabs, after which the whole tab bar area scrolls vertically; along with some various other goodies), but I'll definitely try to remember that if I'm ever forced to use one of those awful 16:9 monitors (great for watching widescreen videos/games - ie, the sorts of stuff I use my TV for - and, uhh, viewing traditional-style Japanese text...and exactly nothing else.) These are the FF plug-ins I can't live without: - Like I said, Tab Mix Plus <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/> - DownloadHelper, again as mentioned before <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloadhelper/> - NoScript (Easy per-(sub)domain JS settings plus placeholders for Flash - Click when I actually want to view them) <http://noscript.net/> - AdBlock Plus (I wouldn't normally mind banner ads, but my mind literally can't read a page if parts of it are animating. Plus they're giant security risks. Drive-by exploits? No thanks.) <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/> - AdBlock Plus's Element Hiding Helper (Great for killing annoying share-on-everything boxes and asinine "turn on JS" nags.) <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/elemhidehelper/> - BetterPrivavy (Cookies are fine. SuperCookies must die.) <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/betterprivacy/> - Winestripe (The real original, not the mediocre FF3.5+ remakes.) - Disable Backspace Navigation (The only times I've ever navigated with backspace have been by accident while typing into a textbox) <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disablebackspacenavigation/> - FavLoc <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/favloc/> - HttpFox <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/httpfox/> - Linkification <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/linkification/> - Re-Pagination <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/repagination/> About 90% of the Web would be literally unusable for me if it weren't for at least NoScript and AdBlock Plus. If I weren't using FF2 I'd also cram in more crap to kill everything about the AwfulBar's UI and de-unify the forward/back buttons (if such a plugin existed) so their drop-downs actually make sense again (I liked the idea of unified forward/back buttons until I actually tried them).
