Firefox

[threeringedmoon]

QuickNote is a Mozilla/Firefox extension that sets up a sidebar for taking notes. It will allow you to gather selected text along with the url.

Jack and were comparing which Firefox we load this morning, and he recommended AdBlock. I asked, "Why don't you just right click on the image and block the images from the server?" He wasn't aware of that function, so I tried to find an image to demonstrate. I had to go to seven sites before I found some that weren't already blocked, including my.yahoo.com, cnn.com, and ustoday.com. I don't block ad servers until they serve flashing advertisements, so I guess they are fairly common.

I really hate flashing advertisements.

I do the same thing. Funny how I don't get that many ads anymore... Though I suppose if enough of us do this they'll start doing something extra stupid to get around it rather than actually stopping with the flashing/jumping/basterdly ads.
