If you don’t know yet Greasemonkey, this is one of the most valuable Firefox plugins.
Basically, Greasemonkey runs scripts on the web page you’re browsing and modifies it’s appearance or behaviour.
Some examples :
- You can add stored searches in GMail (appears like a tag, but runs a query to find mails)
- You can remove all the results from expert-exchange.com from Google results (those ones require you to logon to see the search results… No thanks !)
- You can add favicons besides your links in Del.icio.us
- …
To use it :
- Install the Greasemonkey plugin in Firefox
- Go to userscripts.org to find Greasemonkey scripts related to the website you want to customize (there is a handy search box on the right “Search scripts (live)” )
- Install them and see the changed web site
If you already use Greasemonkey, what are your favorite scripts ?
