Here are the Firefox Extensions I’ve found to be most useful:

• ColorZilla – Advanced Eyedropper, ColorPicker, Page Zoomer and other colorful goodies (http://www.iosart.com/firefox/colorzilla/)
• Session Saver — magically restore your last browser sessions pages (http://adblock.ethereal.net/alchemy.cgi/SessionSaver)
• IE Tab — Open IE only pages in embedded IE (http://adblock.ethereal.net/alchemy.cgi/SessionSaver)
• Livelines — Add RSS feeds to Bloglines or Sage with the RSS icon on the location bar (http://heygom.com/extensions/categories/livelines/)
• Greasemonkey — Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension which lets you to add bits of DHTML (”user scripts”) to any web page to change its behavior. I find it useful to add functionality to Gmail. (http://greasemonkey.mozdev.org/). I use the ‘Gmail Macros’, ‘Gmail Label Colors’, and Gmail Conversation Preview’ scripts.

• Del.icio.us — Manage your bookmarks independant of your browser; share links with your friends (http://del.icio.us/)
• Google Notebook – Clip and collect information as you browse the web (http://www.google.com/googlenotebook/overview.html)
• DragDropUpload – This extension lets fill an upload input of a form using the drag and drop service from the system (http://percro.sssup.it/~pit/mozilla/dragdropupload/)
• CoLT (short for “Copy Link Text”) — copy a hyperlink’s associated text in different ways (http://www.borngeek.com/firefox/colt/)
