This Greasemonkey script Greasefire looks interesting but it doesn’t run on Firefox 3.1 beta, which I’m running now. I find the Greasemonkey scripts for Google Reader very helpful. It’d be nice to look into later.
I have this working on my laptop. But I have to remember to get it going on my desktop machine. That’s the only problem with having two machines - even with Google’s browser sync it’s hard to keep the FireFox configurations absolutely identical.

I really like to be able to click on links while reading an article but not have to deal with the links until I’m done. I’ve got enough ADD issues without tabs popping up. So I was very happy to find this reference to making tabs work better (for me, anyway): Firefox: Open diverted links in new background tab instead of new window It’s kind of an adjustment process because FF is relatively “quiet’ - the tabs are opening all the way to the right and not grabbing attention.

I love the way that Firefox and Thunderbird can be extended by extensions. But I’ve been somewhat concerned about the reliability and stability of Greasemonkey scripts. There were a couple of features that I wanted to try (more on that later) so I broke down and installed it on my laptop. Wow. I’ve been very pleased with how well the scripts worked. I’m still cautious about installing them, since they’re not looked over anywhere near as much as extensions on the official Mozilla site are. But the Userscripts site lets you look over info from the author and comments from people before installing anything. ...
I love how easy FireFox makes it to enter passwords and forget them. But sometimes it turns out to be a problem when I need to remember them. Like when I’m using a different computer or want to change my password. Today, I found Unhide Passwords, a FF extension that will show you your password when you roll the mouse pointer over the password field. It’s easy to disable when you don’t want passwords revealed but it’s already proven useful twice today. ...
