My Reviews
Markdown Viewer
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
It's simple (nothing's configurable) and gets the job done. The style sheet is fine. And it *can* read local files. So far, so good :)
The only drawback is that tab title is a hard-coded "Markdown Viewer" string. Among all the possibilities I could think of (file path, file name, first line, first title... or a combination of those) that's probably among the less useful.
YesScript
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
For your interest, it works with Status-4-Evar. You just need to customize the bar and add the YesScript icon.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.9.1-signed.1-signed).Memory Fox
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Finally, I can use Firefox for a couple of hours and after closing all tabs it will no longer use 75% of my physical memory. IMHO it's a superb accomplishment.
Sadly, it all comes at a price. There're frequent moments when Firefox becomes unresponsive for a few minutes, typically after being in the background for a while (and every time I resume my computer from hibernation). I still have to play with the plug-in configuration as setting everything to "3 min" (whatever that means--the dialogue labels are as verbose as useless) had not apparent effect. So I'm not sure whether I'll keep it or not but, as I said, you can bet it does recover lost memory.
(I wish someone would write a similar plug-in so Firefox does not stop responding so often when switching tabs.)
text/plain
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Apparently, Firefox 4 has finally implemented this functionality so you now get 6 similar (and basically duplicate) items in your context menu: 3 from Firefox (in your browser's lang), 3 from the add-on (in English). Sadly, you can't just uninstall the extension because the built-in feature is not as powerful: it will not detect e-mail addresses and it sometimes misses some web site addresses. So text/plain is still necessary though it could benefit from some tweaking. Too bad it looks abandoned :(
RSS Icon
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
This add-on still needs a lot of polishing:
- It conflicts with the built-in "Subcribe" button (it adds its icon as background image below the button's icon).
- It places the new icon to the right of the "Star" icon, thus it flickers from left to right when loading pages.
- It doesn't have hover effects.
- Even the Add-On site URL is fake!
- Example.com
Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Beware that every time you update your .NET Framework (possibly through Windows Update automatic notifications) you'll get a new version of this add-on. You won't get prompted and every new version will be harder to remove.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.1).Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant

Be aware that this extension cannot be uninstalled unless you hack in the Windows registry and remove some files manually.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
The extension is simple and elegant and it displays the information where it belongs (the properties dialog). However, it only shows a few basic exif fields. If you want to seem them all, you need another tool.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.2.3).To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.
