Useful Flock Extensions

[HendryLee]

I use the following add-ons:
- Roboform: it says not compatible by works!
- Alexa Sparky for nice Alexa graphics in the status bar
- All-in-One Sidebar: no more messy windows.
- ColorZilla: pick the color code for any pixel plus color pallete.
- FEBE: backup profiles.
- Firebug: find bug in html pages.
- Google Global: you know what this is.
- Live HTTP headers: see the communication between your browser and web server.
- MeasureIt: Get measurement of any web elements.
- S3Firefox Organizer (S3Fox): Manage Amazon S3 from within Flock.
- Scrapbook: save pages, portion of the page, annotate, and more.
- Search status.
- SEO for Firefox.
- Session Manager: Saves and restores the state of all windows.
- StumbleUpon.
- Web Developer: very useful for web designer and developer.

Mark,

Get the twitterbar extension from the Flock extensions page, it seems to stay there after you install it rather than getting the one off of the firefox extensions page. At least mine does!

Flock has a built in Blog editor, I am thinking of getting rid of ScribeFire. Any comments?

IM,

Why not try both?....
Install the scribeFire extension in flock...if you find that the inbuilt Blog Editor doesn't work for you you can always use ScribeFire and if you like the inbuilt BlogEditor, just remove the ScribeFire Extension! Win Win if you ask me! lol

I like the scribefire simply because I cant seem to figure out how to write in flocks blog window and save it without posting, or to set it to post later. Entirely possible I just dont know how, but I like the scribefire interface better too, the split window is awesome for referenceing other pages.

This is my personal favorite GOTTA HAVE plug in!

it's by the same folks who brought you Piclens. It's my personal favorite... you can:
- preview links without leaving the window
- temporarily "stack" visual bookmarks in a drawer on the right
- search from a selected word
- send links to friends/self without ever going to the page..

Hi Folks,

Twitter, Twhirl and now there is Twiddla! Hmmm I see a pattern developing here!

Seriously, though...Twiddla is a free online collaboration / conferencing tool that may be of some use to your Team when the 30 day challenge starts in August. There is a link that you can drag onto your bookmark/Favourites toolbar and use from there

Check out Twiddla here Team WhiteBoarding with Twiddla - Painless Team Collaboration for the Web

Happy Twittering, Twirling and Twiddling!

I could not live without Hyperwords.

I tried it for a couple of reasons;
1. I homeschool so we have many times when a word comes up that we are unsure of the exact meaning & with this add on we can just highlight the word, click and have it bring up searches in Google pages (or even in images, video's, maps..), Wikipedia,Dictionary, Thesauruses, Shop (on Amazon, ebay...), Search blogs for the word or phrase.....

2. I have a site that many of the people do not speak English (or not good enough that I always understand). Hyperwords has a translator. I highlight the email (or PM) then translate. I will say it is not the worlds best but, I think it works fine on the fly.

So, it is mostly for research which I do allot of. Also when I read medical terms it REALLY comes in handy.
As you can tell, my brain has limits on what it can hold. Therefore - I rely on the Hyperwords tool. LOL!

I do not use Flock but, figure it will work on there.
