Firefox 3 is out - time for the add-ins

ffbuttons.jpg
After a couple of release candidate versions and much palaver about a world record attempt, Firefox 3 is finally available today. Before you rush out and download, though, it's best to check whether any add-ons that you're currently using are compatible with the new version. Here's a few of our recommendations:
  1. Sage - Firefox can read RSS feeds, obviously, but this little sidebar is ideal for compulsive news-junkies
  2. Del.icio.us - Bookmarks are handy, but tagged social bookmarks are better. This new add-on from Yahoo!'s del.icio.us is much fancier than the old two-button add-on
  3. Qute - Firefox works well, but its icons are ugly. Transport yourself to a rounder, nicer world (as shown above) with this gloriously simple theme
So - those are our favourites. Which add-ons can't you live without?
