Demistifying Life and Web Development

From Flock to Firefox 3

So finally I ditched Flock for Firefox. One of the main reasons I chose to drop Flock was because of Firefox’s cool address bar, which is better than sliced cheese in my opinion. You simple type in a few words (title tags) and Firefox will take you to that page. Another reason for ditching Flock is the plug-ins that can be used in Firefox. Some of the plugins that I really like using are:

  • Firebug:An essential web development tool. It was interesting to note that Brad Abrams from Microsoft used Firebug at Mix Essentials 08.
  • MeasureIt:A measuring tool is incredibly useful in a web development environment
  • IE Tab:Unfortunately web developers have to code for audiences that use Internet Explorer but that doesnt mean you have to leave your Firefox abode. This add-on renders pages as Internet Explorer would. You can also change the rendering engine at any given time.
