Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Right, this topic is for people to recommend Extensions, Themes and Plug-ins for fellow firefox users. Ill start off with a theme: Its called Noia 2.0 (extreme) and having had it for a few days now its pretty good. Its fully skinned and really well done. So recommend away.

Smo™ Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I recommend this: http://macosxcocktail.blogs.com/cocktail/2...ve_firefox.html Enabling HTTP Pipelining to make pages load faster. Pipelining is a feature designed to improve page-load performance. Normally, HTTP requests are issued sequentially, with the next request being issued only after the response to the current request has been completely received. Depending on network latencies and bandwidth limitations, this can result in a significant delay before the next request is seen by the server. HTTP/1.1 allows multiple HTTP requests to be written out to a socket together without waiting for the corresponding responses. The requestor then waits for the responses to arrive in the order in which they were requested. The act of pipelining can result in a dramatic improvement in page loading times, especially over high latency connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Also add "-prefetch" to your Firefox shortcut and it loads faster, apparently. For the skins - Click Tools | Themes | Get more themes :P And that eXtreme skin is ok, a bit too bubly and round for my liking though.
