Today I downloaded this new extension for firefox called Juice. If you're one of the people who loves being informed and to know about everything, or almost everything, I can tell you that you need this extension. Juice allows you to watch news, videos, images, blogs and everything in just one sidebar divided by tabs and buttons. You just have to drag any text from the main browser window to anywhere in the browser and Juice will try to find everything about that text. You can also save your images and bookmark your favorite videos in Juice. You should take a look at this new extension. Best.

With this new release of Firefox 3 I'd like to post my favorite firefox extensions. Extensions that I use every day when I surf the Internet, in a developing process, when I talk by instant messengers, and more. Here is the list. Web Developer Toolbar (Obviously).
