1. Fast Dial
Fast Dial is a great FireFox add-on and a feature that you all have probably seen in Opera already. Fast Dial replaces blank tabs with a panel of thumbnails of your favorite sites. So whenever you open a new tab it will show you the list of websites you have added. From there simply click the thumbnail to open the website immediately. Plus point for Fast Dial is that it allows you to add up to 100 websites with the customization options.
Download : Fast Dial
2. ImageShack
Another add-on that really comes in Handy is the ImageShack Firefox add on. When you’re browsing the internet there are lots of websites you come across and there are certain pictures that you really like. A good way to collect all the pictures is by installing this add on. Simply Right click on any image and click “Transload Image to Imageshack”. Once done those pictures will be uploaded in your Picture Gallery before you know it.
Register on Imageshack, click tools and get the toolbar.
3. StumbleUpon Toolbar
Bookmarking becomes really easy with Stumbleupon Toolbar. Once it’s installed in your browser simply click “I Like It” from the toolbar and consider it as a bookmark in your profile. Plus it’s also a good way to promote any article you like.

4. ClipMark
Clipmark allows you to capture Text and Videos exactly how you want others to see instead of simply copy and pasting links.
