Useful Firefox extensions and RSS feeds
Posted by creining | Filed under Uncategorized
I found the Firefox extension Bookmarks Synchronizer to be really useful for having my bookmarks available to me at both work and home. I installed the extension on my main home and work machines and it uploads/downloads via FTP (HTTP/S also available) the Firefox bookmark file, xbel.xml, from a publically available server. The 0.9.6 version of Bookmarks Synchronizer does not work with Firefox 1.0PR but I found the authors website had a version called bookmarksftp.xpi here compatible with 1.0PR. In other Firefox news, I really enjoy using the extension Sage, the RSS/Atom feed aggregator. Firefox 1.0PR introduced live bookmarks, which is an RSS reader but I still prefer Sage as it’s a bit more mature. A couple recent additions to my feeds include the one provided by mp3blogs.org which I find useful for discovering new music, Netflix finally offers RSS feeds so I can follow new releases, and watchcow.net offers a feed builder to track Amazon products or wishlists.
