Video DownloadHelper is a free Firefox extension for downloading and converting images, videos, and music from many sites like with minimum effort. Huge list of movie sites! It downloads and converts images, videos, and blip.fm and youtube.

Yoono All your social networks, instant messaging, and an rss reader in one easy to use browser sidebar. Get all your friend updates, update your status and share stuff easily across Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Flickr, Google Talk, AIM, Windows Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, and more - all at once! Simplify your online social life. My 1st add-on that I’m keeping installed with an advertisement (which is small). Would be one of my favorite favorites if it didn’t have any ads. I put up with the ads because now I can uninstall Flock as my social media browser.

Google Preview inserts thumbnails and popularity ranks of web sites into Google and Yahoo search results pages.

PDF Download Use PDF Download to do whatever you like with PDF files on the Web. Regain control of them and eliminate browser problems, view PDFs directly in Firefox as HTML, and use the all-new Web-to-PDF toolbar to save and share Web pages as high-quality PDF files.

bit.ly preview & twitter web preview With the bit.ly Preview Plugin for Firefox, whenever you hover over a bit.ly URL on any web page, it displays a tooltip showing the Page Title, Long URL, and any Click Data we have about the page the URL links to. If you hover over another short URL, http://tinyurl.com/5qhkwo, for example, we show the Page Title and Long URL for these links as well. Plus, we check to see if anyone made a bit.ly link pointing to the same place, and, if so, we show how many clicks it has received.***Must-have add-on for twitter.com! I don’t click on links unless i hover over them with this first to make sure they are safe. Also helps if you hover over replies to see what someone is replying to, without going to their page. It’s easy to set up a bit.ly account if you want it to keep stats of clicks/link. Also, tinyurl sucks because it takes up more of your 140 characters.***
