Ok, so I thought, everyone has a post or a write up on this topic and why not, everyone has different opinion’s of what would be a useful extension based on our professions, preferences, habits, hardware, etc. This is the first post in a series of 3, this one being:
ยป Truly Essential
AdBlock Plus: The de facto must have extension; looking at the internet without this simply hurts my eyes. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
AdBlock Plus: Element Hiding Helper: A great little add-on to ABP that allows to block those pesky text ads.
Customize Google: Kills adsense ads, adds links to other engines, kills google tracking links and tons of other useful features. Makes Google more like…Google.
Google Preview: Inserts a preview thumbnail next to Google results.
IE Tab: Quickly open new tabs that use IE or switch to it if you notice a site isn’t playing well with FF. Should be built in at this point.
Download Statusbar: I love the download manager but find its implementation to be a bit clunky. This extension puts it in a small (or somewhat small) area of the status bar and allows for 1 click access to downloads.
Linky: Allows you to open all the links/images on a page in a new tab or window among other features. *EDIT*: There is a specially modified version of this by Arren Lex that sets the link limit to 999 and fixes an issue with trailing slashes.
UnPlug: Quickly save embedded media files (not just flash video, allows you to easily save anything that tries to play within your browser). I prefer this extension to some others because it works great with almost anything you throw at it
URL Fixer: Automatically fixes the common misspellings of .com, .net, .org, etc. Really this works so great, I couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve reaped the benefits of having this installed.
This was a free download from Madlib’s website but now the link is all but gone. This is really a very fun EP with great input coming from both sides. Talib has been receiving a lot of guff from his fans lately, saying hes losing his roots and his music is drifting. Personally, I’ve always loved the guys flow but noticed that, aside from a few tracks on each album, his production was very mundane. My feelings are that even he felt this; you could hear it in his verses. They lacked substance. Even a great artists can become misguided, especially when they are plagued by shoddy production. This changes that whole aura. Talib lays down some of the best verses we’ve heard from him in AWHILE. The glitzy-yet-raw production from Madlib suits Kweli’s raspy voice and complements his smooth & dodgy flow. Best of all, you can tell Talib feels it. He liked making this album, and I for one, really liked hearing it.
