Firefox is a fastest growing popular web browser. There are lots of ease provided by the firefox and this is the main reason for its popularity. There are lots of free download able extensions and add-ons available on the internet for firefox and there demands are increasing every day. In this post, I am listing down 9 Amazing Firefox Add-Ons That Will Save Your Time.
You are welcome to share if you know more amazing firefox add-ons that will save time which our readers/viewers may like.
It lets you save articles and webpages so you can read them later, even when you’re offline. Now the internet is your bitch. Firefox add-on
This add-on is so badass, that if search engines made a superhero movie, this would be the Batman. Basically, you get to search any website with sonar vision and see through all the links at once. Firefox add-on
So, you visited a website you’re not too proud of, but you don’t want to delete your cookies or you will lose your progress on Defend Your Castle. Well now you can have your cookie and eat it too. Firefox add-on
YourWebsiteValue
This is your childhood cardboard fort of Firefox add-ons. Absolutely useless, but very very cool. Basically this shows you the estimated worth of most websites. Who knows how accurate and useful it really is, but hey, did you really think your cool fort could actually keep the girls out? Firefox add-on
This is the Drunk Uncle at the bar that won’t stop hitting on the ladies of Firefox add-ons. TryAgain will keep trying to load a webpage when the server is not found, and it won’t stop till it gets what it wants. Firefox add-on
IMDb suffers from Wikipedia syndrome. How many times have you started on Pee-we’s Big Adventure and ended up on The Shining? Too many damn times. However, with this add-on you get to preview links on IMDb and see snip-bits of information without leaving the page. Wait, why doesn’t Wiki have this?
What’s your record? 20 tabs open at once? Well Aging tabs will help you realize your laziness by making unused tabs fade and change colors with age. Although, it would be cooler if they made the tabs blow up in a fiery explosion instead.
This is the ultimate tab collection, greatest hits volume, 0.3.6. It has such classics as duplicating tabs, controlling tab focus, tab clicking options, and many of your other favorite hits. And if you download in the next 15 minutes we will throw in undo closed tabs and windows Firefox add-on.
Preview how a webpage page looks like before you actually click on the link. So now you can see how unorganized, useless, and ugly the website is before you commit your precious time to it. Dating really needs a tool like this Firefox add-on.

wow, if there is a Guest Post Award, I would definitely vote for this. You did it really great Sasha, congratulation.
And congratulation SmashingApps for having her guest post here.
Too bad Tab Mix Plus hasn’t really been updated. It’s very useful but isn’t supported on the newer versions of Firefox.
Thank you so much Jay for your informative posting. Thru your posting my level of interest to use oftenly the Firefox browser has ignited.
Especially when you’ve showed here the cool stuffs or add-ons that keep my juice of enthusiasm flowing.
I look forward for your other great postings!
Thanks for the list!
Aging Tabs looks like a great app.

The latest build of Tab Mix Plus (updated a few days ago) works great with FF 3.0.1 (click on Dev-Build):
There’s a Tab Mix Plus Dev-Build 0.3.7 prereleased version for Firefox 3.0.1
just installed it, seems to be working as before…
I too would have to vote for Aging Tabs. But I think Mouse Gestures should get a mention when talking about browsing aids.

I would add SEO Tool for Firefox as the 10th Add-on. Its rocking and helps you monitor the indexed pages, backlinks across all the major search engines in one ego. Very helpful if you are into SEO.

I’m sorry but this is a bit rubbish. Not least because at least one of these add-in’s is adware and you have not informed people.
Chunkit is adware, the information is half-way down the license that nobody reads.
it seems to me like read it later would make you end up taking more time. why do tommorrow what you can do today!

I recommend my life saver: Select-n-Go by Cleeki:
http://www.cleeki.com/firefox.html
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7750
Firefox’s enhanced alternative to IE8 Accelerator (Activities). Select any text on your screen and you can preview search results immediately in the same page. Support Google (text, image …), YouTube, Maps, Amazon, etc. and you can manage/add your own channels.
Also it contains two additional features, small but useful:
1. Copy plain text (without format)
2. Convert URL text to hyperlink
This is without a doubt the single worst list of good firefox addons that I have ever seen, and believe me, I’ve seen a lot.
Read It Later: you won’t
Chunkit: wait, what?
Remove Cookie(s) From Site: that’s built in to firefox (tools>options>security>exceptions)
YourWebsiteValue: entirely irrelevent for almost all users
TryAgain: just hit f5, if it doesn’t work after 2 or 3 tries, odds are the server is down or something equivalent
IMDb Preview: this probably slows down your browsing speed on IMDB soooo much. Also, CoolPreviews accomplishes basically the same thing for any site
Aging Tabs: pointless
Tab Mix Plus: the only good addon on this list
CoolPreviews: fairly slow at opening previews, often opens them without you meaning to. Also, middle click to open them in a new unfocused tab (or focused if you mess with about.config)

IMDB is my most frequently visited website. So I guess I will be using IMDB preview. I would like to suggest a few add-ons too. They sure are visually appealing.
