ScribeFire Firefox blogging extension

Posted: July 2nd, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Utils | Tags: , , | No Comments »

If you’re on firefox all day long and you have a blog or two, ScribeFire is a must have firefox extension. Rather than a separate desktop app or actually having to log-in to your blog manually, simply call up the ScribeFire window from your firefox toolbar and fire away. Works with a bunch of the more popular blogging platforms WordPress, Tumblr, Movable Type etc. You can manage multiple accounts. And even upload images to your blog. Very handy if you’re on a page you want to talk about and it’s one less tab you need open. Two thumbs up!

Firefox Site Launcher

Posted: July 1st, 2009 | Author: | Filed under: Utils | Tags: , | No Comments »

Handy little app that lets you quickly launch sites with keyboard shortcuts. Hit CTRL + SPACE to call up the window, and hit the corresponding letter on your keyboard to launch your sites. Great if you find yourself accessing the same pages over and over and would rather not go through your bookmarks each and every time.
