I’m an extension junky. I’ve got way too many but I don’t know what I’d do without them.

Tabbrowser Extensions
* The best "advanced" tab functions out there.
Forcastfox
* Because I cant just look outside!
Colorzilla
* Great for the web developer.
All-in-one Gestures
* Great gesture extension.
Bloglines Toolkit
* I suppose this is only good if you use bloglines.
AI Roboform
* Because I’m lazy and cant remember all of my passwords.
Google Send to Phone
* Just for easy SMS style messages.
Gmail Notifier
* Because Gmail rocks and I always want to know if I got some mail!
MeasureIt
* Self explanitory.
AutoCopy
* Another one of those "lazy man" extensions.
StumbleUpon
* One of my favorites.
IE View
* Self explanitory.
Flashblock
* Self explanitory.
del.icio.us
* It’s delicious!
About site
* Because I want to know about stuff.
BugMeNot
* Yep…I’m lazy

My list (for Firefox v1.5):

* Print It!
(Add print and print preview to context menu)
* Html Validator
(I use it for view hidden frame source code)
* IE View
(adds a "View in IE" to context menu)
* Live HTTP Headers
(view the HTTP headers)
* SessionSaver
(Saves the state of all open tabs. Even if Firefox crashes, all tabs will be reopened as they were before the crash)
* Web Developer
(Varies tools for the web developer)
* Download Statusbar
(This is the way that Firefox *should* handle the progress of downloads)
* DownThemAll!
(Quick way to download all files on a page, or just from the selected text.)
* Bookmarks Synchronizer
(Uploads/Downloads bookmarks to a centralized location so you can keep you bookmarks in sync between browsers.)
* Viamatic foXpose
(Shows preview thumbnails of all open tabs, you can then click on thumbnail to go to that tab.)
* Console2
(A replaced JavaScript Console that allows you to filter and search for specific errors.)
