Fun on the Web Nov 8 '09 Add-Ons

Since I have been using Firefox I have discovered a whole range of add-ons like SimilarWeb, XMarks, due to this website which pops up when I login now and again
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

I think I really like SimilarWeb which shows other similar websites (in a sidebar) to whatever you are looking at on the current page. Right now it is showing me other Blogger Tools.

Install Xmarks on each computer you use, and it seamlessly integrates with your web browser and keeps your bookmarks safely backed up and in sync. Get site info before you click. Simply move your mouse over the site info icon to learn more about that site. Xmarks shows you bookmark popularity, average review, related topics and more.
