What if you find your dear friend on one of the Social Networking sites and if you want to find what other Social networking sites he/she is using?

Find Friends Online – Identity Firefox Extension

For instance, if I were to use it on XYZ’s Twitter profile it would be able to tell me what other services he’s using, like FriendFeed, Facebook, Last.fm, and more. The same thing would happen if I checked from his profile on one of those other sites, too.

This extension uses two tools to get the job done: Yahoo Query Language and Google’s Social Graph API. Creator Madgex has use the two tools together to quickly figure out where the profiles are and provide links directly to them.

Add search history to Firefox’s search feature – FindList

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

I use search tool very much. It can be any application. I also use search to quickly navigate to a particular place in a website. If a website has lot of text and links and i am sure what i am looking for. I press “CTRL + F”.

I think most of the tech savvy guys use firefox search feature. One thing that i don’t like about it, it can only remember one word or phrase at a time. What if you visit some sites and daily look for some search terms? It is difficult to always type in the words?

Well, the good news is i have found a Firefox Extension called FindList!

This add-on saves the search history and gives a drop down history list when searching a word or phrase that was already searched.

With it installed you can have up to 15 of your latest searches saved for later use and quick selection. Every time you do an on-page search it simply saves that word or phrase in its history even after you start searching for something else. Neat.

Open your websites faster using Keyboard Hotkeys – “SiteLauncher” (a Firefox Add-on)

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009

Most of us bookmark websites so that we can jump on to the website quickly. But, what if you have organized your bookmarks that have 10-20 categories each having 10-20 websites in it.

The time taken to browse through the bookmarks menu and select a particular website is more than typing the website address.

SiteLauncheris a Firefox add-on which can turn your bookmarks into shortcuts. Site Launcher lets you replace your bookmarks toolbar with a window of links that can be opened using a simple keyboard shortcut. It gives you a super-quick way to open your favorite websites that you use often throughout the day by using only your keyboard. One special hotkey brings up the Launcher (shown below), followed by a unique key to launch a site. You pick which sites you want on the list, and a one-letter keyboard shortcut is given to each.

For example, i have added these sites – Google, Gmail, NiharsWorld, and IBNLive.com to SiteLauncher – what sites to include is entirely up to you. CTRL + SPACE will popup the transparent window with links. Then you just need to type shortcut key to launch the website. Check my list below.

My favorite sites to launch them quickly!
