Geoblogging

One of the principal reasons for me using Firebox is the huge array of extensions available. Here's a quick list of what I use...
Ad Block, Flashblock, Sage (RSS reader), Spellbound (spell checker), Bandwidth Tester, Minesweeper, Card Games, Blockfall (Tetris).
The best of all is Greasemonkey - which I finally got round to installing this other night. Basically it allows you to inject DHTML into web pages, and there are a lot of pre-written scripts. One I'm particularly interested in is for Geo-tagging Flickr images via Google Maps, so in future if you look at my photos in Flickr, you may notice the Long-Lat coordinates of where the photo was taken. The script also submits the image to geobloggers.com, a world wide listing of geo-tagged objects.
