Best ways of Bookmarking Through Firefox

Posted by admin on 04 Aug 2008

In Continuation with my previous post, This time, I am going to talk about Best Ways of Bookmarking through the best firefox plugins.

This list of plugins are not sidebars(hate opening firefox sidebars). Mostly come under icons you can place on your Address bar and toolbar plugins.

1. 404-Error? Site/File/Page-Not-Found? Now it will be! - Ever bookmarked your favorite page but few months later when you finally had time to read it in detail, you couldn’t find it? If a page was (re)moved and now shows ‘404 Page / File / Site Not Found’ error, this tiny extension uploads archived version of a page (from wayback machine at archive.org).

2. Check4Change - Check4Change (aka C4C) is a simple extension that allows you to periodically check a web-page for updates.

3. Clipmarks - Instead of copying and pasting links, Clipmarks is like adding a pair of scissors to your browser, letting you capture exactly what you want others to see (text, images or video). Your clips are saved on clipmarks.com and can easily be syndicated to FriendFeed, Twitter, Facebook or other sites. You can also post anything you clip directly to your blog (supports Wordpress, Blogger, Typepad and more) or send it directly to friends or co-workers via email. Clipmarks also gives you a way to help the environment by printing only the parts of a page that you need. By printing just what you need, you’ll save ink, paper and trees, thus making a contribution to a cleaner environment. Your clip collection is accessible from any computer with an internet connection, including your iPhone, Blackberry, or other mobile device.

4. DejaClick - DéjàClick is a web recorder and Super Bookmark utility designed exclusively for Firefox. You can record and bookmark your browser activities, then with a single click, replay the entire sequence all over again.

5. Delicious Bookmarks - Delicious Bookmarks is the official Firefox add-on for del.icio.us, the world’s leading social bookmarking service. It integrates your del.icio.us bookmarks and tags with Firefox and keeps them in sync for easy, convenient access.

6. Fast Dial - Fast access to your favorite sites through thumbnails, like Opera Speed Dial.

7. Link Evaluator - Link Evaluator is a Firefox extension designed to help users evaluate the availability of online resources linked to from a given Web page. When started, it automatically follows all links on the current page, and assesses the responses of each element in the webpage.

8. StumbleUpon - StumbleUpon discovers web sites based on your interests, learns what you like and brings you more.

9. Traction Control - An accurately ordered list of pages seen or loaded, in a kind of a history console, which handles nicely It shows the icon, time, title and address. There are some tools in the right-click menu.

10. WebMynd - Never bookmark or save a page again! WebMynd is like a DVR for the web — It is a web service that records a visual browsing history — Search your web history and Del.icio.us bookmarks from Google — Access your history offline — Perfect for research or just for fun!

11. Yoono - Socialize you browser. Bring all your friends in your browser with Yoono and: - Follow what they are doing - Chat with them wherever they are - Discover and share any content by a single drag & drop Support: MSN, Yahoo, Gtalk, AIM, Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, Friendfeed,… Yoono also synchronizes your bookmarks between your different computers See long description for all additional Yoono’s features.

Thats About it now. The above firefox plugins I believe are great for power surfing and getting the best of your firefox browsing experience. Also Helps you out in Social bookmarking and stuff so wherever you go your Bookmarks follow.
