Blazing Minds

I can quite honestly say that I’ve always been a big fan of FireFox, it’s quick, easy to use and it has a massive amount of add-ons that you can use to help you out with many a situation from simply browsing the internet to helping you out with your blogging, yes you read that right, there are several [intlink id="dont-chastise-bloggers-revenue-with-adblock" type="post"]FireFox Add-Ons[/intlink], that I personally use that you can use to help with your blogging.

So here in this post I bring you a list of the FireFox Add-Ons that I find useful, some at first you may not think they will help out you out with your blogging, but you will see that there is a method in my madness

SiteLauncher

Now this is a simple plugin that will allow you to create short cuts in Firefox and display a screen for you to get quick access to websites, I use this as a quick access to my blog as well as the blog that I [intlink id="413" type="category"]Guest Post[/intlink] on, it’s just so simple to hit CRTL + SPACE to launch the panel to access them, you can also creat hot keys to get to the sites you use a lot quickly.

CoLT

Every week I create a post that is my [intlink id="510" type="category"]Weekly Round-Up[/intlink] of my blogs stats as well as blogs I’ve read and enjoyed, using CoLT allows me to create a link to the blog in one very quick step, with this FireFox Add-On you when you click your right mouse button, you will be have an option of how copy a website URL plus information on the title of page, you can select HTML, Plain Text, BBCode, FuseTalk and Wikipedia style links. This allows me to quickly add the information straight into my blogs posts, quicker than typing it all in.

Copy Links

This is another plugin that will add a menu to your FireFox menus when clicking the right Mouse Button, but this one will enable you to copy all the links you may have selected, handy if there are  a lot of links on a page that you want to transfer to your blog post..

Easy Comment

Now this is when you want to make that commenting on blogs that tad bit quicker, remember commenting on blogs helps your [intlink id="an-easy-way-to-check-a-dofollow-blog-in-a-simple-step" type="post"]backlinks[/intlink] etc, so commenting is a very important part of the blogging experience, with Easy Comment it will fill out the comment fields for you, once this FireFox Add-On is configured with your details, all you have to do is click the easyComent box on the bottom right of your [intlink id="firefox-browser-great-personas" type="post"]FireFox browser[/intlink] and your information is automatically added to the fields in the comment box, so Name, Email and Website will be filled in for you, you can also set easyComment to allow you to have a default in the comment box..

Dictionary

Now this isn’t so much as a single plugin, as there are so many FireFox Dictionary Add-Ons available, but for whatever language you speak, these come in extremely useful when typing out your blog, as the Dictionary Add-Ons will underline an incorrectly spelt word with a red wavy line, showing you that you have a misspelt word, hovering over the word and clicking on the right mouse button will give you a list of possible spellings for you to choose from, I’ve linked to the English one in this post, but if you search FireFox Add-Ons for “Dictionary” you will find a good choice.
