Improve your firefox with coolpreview, foxtab, fire.fm, WOT & Qrobe.it

A big portion of the net surfers use Firefox nowadays. Though the basic versions of the Firefox come with a lot of features, I still think there are few add-ons, that will surely smooth your surfing experience. Here are  5 such add-ons, that you must try.


 1.  CoolPreviews :

      A great utility product by Cooliris team. If you want to browse fast, then this is definitely for you. We often give a search to a search engine & then keep on looking for the information we need in the search results. But, we don't get in the provided links always. So, you have to come out of that page & then keep on looking for it in the other links. Coolpreviews  is absolutely meant for this. Once you see any link on any webpage & you are not sure, if it really worths taking a look at that page, just rollover your mouse on the link. Coolpreviews will show you the content of the page in a separate small window within your browser window. Like this,




 2.  Fox tab :

      Fox tab gives you an ultimate power to manage your currently & previously browsed pages, with an impressive interface. It also allows grouping of webpages & makes it easier for you to find out the same.


You can choose some nice themes & can change the layout of 3D display of pages, to make the interface look better.

























3.  Fire.fm :

        I was in a kind of dilemma, before putting this add-on into this list. The sole reason is, it's for the music lovers only. Still, I hope, it's not going to be a bad choice to you. Fire.fm is a add-on for listening to songs from the vast music library of Last.fm. It's a 'must have' add-on for most music addicted net surfers. The add-on helps you to listen to your favorite music, to browse details of the albums & artists. The controls are placed on the toolbars. So in order to access it, you work don't need to be interrupted.






 4.  WOT - safe browsing tool :

      This one is specially recommended to the Windows users. WOT, lets you know about the websites you can trust. It through a kind of traffic light sytem lets you know about the rating of the websites, you are about to visit.  




 5.  Qrobe.it :

     The last one in the list. Qrobe.it is the new sensation in the search engine block. It gets the search result from Google , Bing & Ask & presents the best of it in front of you. Firefox doesn't come with this search engine as an option at the search bar right now. You, therefore, only need to install this add-on to put it as an option to your search bar.
