- ForecastFox: get international weather forecast and displays it in status bar or any toolbar
- Foxmarks: synchronizes your bookmarks across machines
- GooglePreview: inserts web site previews in google and yahoo search results
- IE View: open pages in Internet Explorer via Firefox menu
- Image Zoom: adds zoom functionality for images
- Map+: view a map of selected address
- Tab Catalog: shows thumbnail-style catalog of tabs
- Tabbrowser Preferences: enhances control over some aspects of tabbed browsing
- DownThemAll: download manager/accerlerator
- Sage: lightweight RSS/Atom newsfeed reader/aggregator
Here's also a list of cool themes compatible with Firefox 2: Noia, iPox, Aluminium Kai and iFox. There are tons and tons of other extensions and themes available on the Firefox add-ons website.

Thanks for mentioning iPox. I'm glad you like it. :)
You're welcome TwisterMc, nice job! it's definitively one of the best theme out there
Don't forget DownThemAll, Tony. It makes you download 2 or 3 times faster.
Great job, great blog.
merci! c'est super bon.

bonjour Tony,
recente adepte de Firefox, j ai le probleme inverse, mes liens s ouvrent systematiquement avec Explorer, dont je voudrais me debarrasser. Comment faire pour que mes liens ne s ouvrent qu avec Firefox? Une idee?
ravie de decouvrir ton blog.
Hello mariapiaw! bienvenue dans ce coin de la blogosphere :)
1) dans le menu Tools/Options verifie que la case devant "Always check to see if Firefox is the main browser on start-up" est cochee (c'est dans l'onglet "Main")
2) dans le menu "demarrer" (si tu es sur un PC Windows) clique sur "Configuere les programmes par defaut" tu peux choisir quel est le navigateur par defaut dans la rubrique "Personalisee"
fais moi savoir si ca marche! :)
