My Geek Notes

Since I couldn’t find a good list anywhere else (insert sarcastic context here), here’s mine:

1. Google Browser Sync - syncs bookmarks, history, cookies, and passwords across multiple computers.
2. Add N Edit Cookies - edit cookies one at a time. Handy for development
3. ColorZilla - a handy color picking tool.
4. Firebug - edit and fiddle with css, html, javascript, etc. in any webpage.  A must have for any web developer.
5. Flashgot - pair this with your favorite download manager for easy downloading of multiple files.
6. Gmail Manager - toolbar to keep a watch on multiple gmail accounts.
7. IE View Lite - opens pages in IE for those websites that just don’t look right or work in Firefox.
8. ShowIP - shows the IP of the server to which you’re connecting in the address bar. Nice if you’ve messed with your host file and are unsure of which domain is pointing where.
9. Tamper Data - mess with any of the HTTP headers, cookies, or other form elements prior to posting back a web page. Always interesting to see what’s getting sent in a given web request.
10. Web Developer - I use this less now that I’ve found Firebug, but still gets plenty of use in my daily development activities.
