My Reviews

BackupHelper Plus for ScrapBook Plus / XSidebar

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

lots of detail on its compatibilities, but no mention of what the thing does! a link to the previous version doesn't count :) looks useful though, so i will check it out.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.2.4). 

keywordManager

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

in my opinion, keywordManager could use more documentation. I am having a hard time with it at the moment, although this may be because I use the Diigo toolbar. it seems either Diigo or keywordManager are mistaking my tags for keywords. it might have to do with Diigo's "Lists" function. I can't really say more than that since by now it has just become a big hot mess. however, I agree that keywordManager has potential. actually, I could really use the functionality that this extension promises. I'm a big keyboarder and using keywords fits into that style of browsing... but, as others have said, there isn't much built into Firefox that makes it easy to manage a long list of keywords.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.7.3). 

Custom Buttons²

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

this add-on has the potential to fix every fx problem or annoyance out there. but i haven't been able to access the web site either. i keep getting the same 403 Forbidden error. even after installing a Greasemonkey script that is supposed to fix the problem, I am unable to access the website. so no downloading buttons or getting help with already installed buttons. any suggestions??

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.1).

Complaints about having to "send content on the web" or "beam page content all over the Internet for editing" seem strange when more and more applications these days are migrating to the Web. Many of us would rather use Google Docs online than purchase and download (or even just boot up) bulky Microsoft Office. Without platform constraints or installation requirements, the software-as-a-service model is understandably attractive to developers, too – nothing inherently sketchy about it. That said, I don't particularly want to sign up to another random website either. Developers, please at least warn us when registration is required to use your software. (Or better yet: implement OpenID??)

iterasiLite Extension

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

it would help if you made the screenshots bigger... they are LITERALLY as big as thumbnails. i mean the ones that grow on thumbs. anyway, in what way is this different from scrapbook?

MR Tech - Gant Icon Pack

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Well since nobody's rated this puppy - ever! - I thought I'd put my 2 cents in. Of course I cant speak from experience since I'm running Firefox 3.0.5 [sad face]. I really like the idea though. I've been using Mr. Tech so long it seems fun to change the icons up a bit. Refreshing. Alas, I have no idea if it's advised to override version compatibility and force install this anyway... But seeing how the last update was in 2006, I'd rather not take the gamble without an express go-ahead from Mr. Tech himself OR someone equally knowledgeable. Anyone listening out there???

Craigslist Image Preview Ext

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

This is not only a rip-off but totally unnecessary. For those who are still "hunting for a free alternative" look no further. Simply download the Greasemonkey extension and after restarting FF go to http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/24089. There you will find a script called "Craigslist Image Preview 2." Install by double clicking and you now have the same C-List image previews but totally free. As they should be. Even better, you can install the Greasefire extension with Greasemonkey and then just go to Craigslist as usual. This dynamic duo will automatically tell you when scripts are available for the site you're currently viewing.
