I’ve officially switched to Firefox as the default web browser on my home machine. I’ve been using IE for years, but with the release of Firefox 1.5 I decided to switch. So now I’m using Firefox and Thunderbird, and both of them are working out great. I been using FeedDemon for my RSS reader for quite a while, and it has tabbed browsing built in (like Firefox), so that’s a nice feature that I’m already used to. I just need to take some time this weekend to download some extensions to tweak things a little more for my preferences.
You know we switched to Firefox. What kinds of extensions are you adding to it?

Becca,
So far I just have a few, though there are a lot of them available. Under Tools - Extensions, there is a link to get more extensions that takes you to a repository.
I’m currently using AdBlock (which stips ads from web pages), Tabbrowser Preferences (which gives you more control over how tabs work), and the extension for del.icio.us (since, as you can tell from my weekly link postings, I am big fan).
You should at least check out the available extensions because there are so many that there is likely to be one that adds some kind of enhancement that would be useful to you.
