Some great Firefox Add Ons
6610 very useful, not-so-popular Firefox extensions
Certainly not the usual list with extensions that you're already using.
These are 10 very useful, not-so-popular Firefox extensions that I'm assuming you don't know.
HyperWords
Click edit above to add content to this empty capsule.
One of the best Firefox extensions out there, that probably deserves more praise. It makes every word on web pages interactive. Basically, after you've installed this addon, you have a whole bunch of things on your right click menu.
Select a word, right click, see the plethora of options that Hyperwords gives you. Don't be taken aback. You can locate meanings of a word by just right clicking hovering over a few menu items. Select a word, click, and go to Google's top search result page for that term. Select, click, do a shopping search. Locate a place in a map by right clicking on the place name. Possibilities are endless.

Snap Links
You must have been in this kind of a situation before: You have to manually click on over tens of links. Time wasted. Save a few seconds and effortlessly open multiple links with Snap Links installed.
Use the right mouse button and drag it over a particular area, the main links get selected and open when the button is released.
Menu Editor
Ok, you have a very customized Firefox installation on your computer. With your favourite addons installed. Tens of them. Each puts something in the right click context menu. That's clutter, isn't it? That's where the Menu Editor extension comes in handy.
Using this addon, it's possible to rearrange items in the right click menu, and even group them together.

Hide Menu Bar
Does anyone use the Firefox Menu Bar? Buttons on the toolbar do most of the jobs for me, so I rarely take the cursor over to the top to access the menu bar. This extension does a neat job of hiding your Firefox Menu Bar.
Hide Menu Bar
Gain some screen space, hide the menu bar. On those rare occasions when you need to use the menu bar, don't panic. Just hold the ALT button and the menu bar appears instantly.
PicLens
Makes browsing through pictures a wonderful experience. When you go to a compatible site like Flickr, click on the Piclens icon near the image.
PicLens transforms the page to a 3D Gallery-Like view. Use your mouse to drag, select and zoom in.
Reminder Fox
If you spend the whole day inside Firefox, this is for you.
Reminder Fox can be used to set reminders and to-do lists, and can alert you when you have things to do.
Littlefox
This addon is very useful if you have too many things on your Firefox window occupying a lot of space. LittleFox revamps the Firefox interface once installed, makes elements smaller and leaves a lot of room for viewing web pages. Have a look for yourself:
Must install if you have more than 3 toolbars floating around in the Firefox Window.

I will have to try some of these now that I've read about them. The Reminder Fox sounds like it will be really helpful for alerts when I have spent too much time on the computer!
