Free Photos and Images

By : Josh Stauffer

There is nothing more appealing on a website than a nice, beautiful, colorful picture… don’t you think? Me too. There is also nothing better than finding photos and images that you can use for free. And I’m not just talking royalty free but I am talking free free. Here is a list of sites where you will find free photos and images that you are free to use.

Best Firefox Extensions

By : Josh Stauffer

Firefox logo Firefox is great! Why? Because it has some of the greatest extensions you could think of. I used to be the type of person that completely refused to use Firefox simply because IE6 was more prevalent. I am sure glad a friend of mine talked me into giving Firefox a try because I don’t know where I would be without it. And now for my list of the Best Firefox Extensions known to man… I mean me. (Of course this will be a subjective post but I thought it would be fun to write anyway)

Fast Video Download – This extension allows you to easily save embedded video files from video-hosting servers such as Google Video, iFilm, My Space, YouTube, and several others.
Gmail Notifier – This extension lets you monitor multiple Gmail accounts right inside your browser’s user interface.
Live PageRank – This extension displays Google’s PageRank for the page you are on. Despite having a few glitches this is still a great extension especially if you don’t want to install the Google Toolbar.
Restart Firefox – This extension is named appropriately. It is great for when you install themes or extensions and need to restart Firefox but are not given the option.
Screengrab! – I can’t tell you how many times this extension has come in handy. It will save what you can see in the window, the entire page, just a selection, or a particular frame. It basically saves web pages as images.
StumbleUpon – This is the most fun extension I have come across. You select what categories interest you, hit a button and it takes you to the best-reviewed sites on the web that pertain to the categories selected.
View Source Chart – This extension is simple in features but will save you some headaches and time. It draws a color-coded chart of a web page’s source code. Try viewing the source code of Yahoo.com with and without this extension and you will see what I mean.
Web Developer – If you are a web developer, then this is the extension of all extensions. I can’t describe all of its features but it adds a menu and a toolbar with various web developer tools. If you were only allowed to have one extension installed, then the Web Developer extension would be number 1 on my list!

If you are a fellow Firefox die hard, then please share with me your favorite Firefox extensions so that I may become even more infatuated with this wonderful browser than I already am.
