Chris Morrell has written a worthy article that shows you how to get the most out of your Firefox browser. He covers several about: config tweaks like the minimize, network, cache and download manager hacks. Chris also mentions some of his favorite extensions, I had not heard of some until this.

I hadn’t heard of some of those either. Hopefully they’ll help Firefox quit closing every time I check my gmail. By the way, what’s up with his footer saying, “Powered by Paul Stamatiou?” Weird.

Well the site technically is “Powered by Paul Stamatiou”. Paul has been helping me with my website and offered to host it on spare server space that he had sitting around. Just in case you are paranoid, I am not Paul and Paul is not me, he doesn’t have enough time on his hands to maintain two blogs. Drop a line if you know of any tweaks that work and aren’t mentioned here.

Ah, I get it now. For a second I thought that perhaps Paul had developed a handle or something. But as you said, maintaining one rockin’ blog is time-consuming enough. I don’t know of any more hacks but I really did appreciate the list you put together!

Kudos on the digg Chris.

Keep in mind that network.http.proxy.pipelining is only needed is you are reaching the web via a proxy (and in this case the network.http.pipelining setting is ignored).

Hey Paul how did your server do on that Digg? I hit Chris with it and it was kinda odd. It didnt get much of a look until it was out there for 15 hours and then it all broke loose.

I’m not sure, there’s no real good stat tracking software on that server. I need to get Chris to buy mint. My estimations say he got around 10k unique hits today. It also made del.icio.us popular.

Mint is a must have! I guess he is a traffic whore like you now. A least that is what I hear you are called….from Bryan
