Lately, Facebook team has been experimenting with too many GUI and interface changes to the website. For example a new and much improved profile view had been introduced recently. So, for the most part these changes are for the good and welcome as a result. However, this is not true for all the changes. Lately they are pushing a change in the Facebook where users pictures and associated comments when viewed appear in dark pup-up window. This seem really weird and kind of annoying for the most people. ...

Sometimes when viewing a webpage we are interested to save a particular image to the hard-drive. This is not difficult at all to do in most of the web browsers including Firefox as it only involves a couple of clicks, and you can save the image to the desired folder. However if you have lots of images on the page you are viewing and interested in saving to local hard-drive then it quickly becomes a tedious task. This is because the same procedure has to be repeated again and again for every image, ...

It is quite common that when you enter a URL to load in the address bar in a browser to introduce some typos along the way! It is particularly true when it is done in a hurry. Although not all of these errors can be automatically corrected, but most of the errors/misspellings related to the TLD’s can be corrected automatically when you are using Firefox with an extension named URL Fixer.URL Fixer corrects typos in URLs that you enter in the address bar. For example, if you type google.con, it ...

Internet can be thought of as an infinite universe that we can easily lost in to with almost unlimited boundaries. Just like our universe it also seems to expanding in all direction without any limits in sight. Focus has done a remarkable job of trying to put the magnitude of this amazing world that we call Internet in to perspective. And they do so with some very interesting visualized statistics to put the massive scale of this beast in to perspective. Some of the stats are really mind blowing ...

Facebook has already taken the world by storm and has now become the most popular website on the Internet for the social interaction. This popularity also brings some problems since there is a massive amount of user data that is stored on their servers and it becomes a security risk in the scenarios where their servers security is compromised, and then all this massive sensitive personal users data on their servers might be leaked in the wild. An exploit for the Facebook has been posted on Reddit ...

Facebook had announced the @Facebook.com email service just about 2 months ago. And now we can already witness its rollout in to some user accounts.

Key features of the new service includes seamless messaging, conversation history and a social inbox. Users need to choose an @Facebook.com email account and from there on they will be able to get email alerts with conversation history and a social inbox. ...

Well, I should make it clear right away that it is not exactly an emulator for the iPhone in the same context as many of you might be thinking. Basically, it is the name of a button made for the Custom Buttons extension that I have already introduced to you in some other articles here. It allows to open any website you are currently viewing to be opened in such a way as you are viewing in iPhone. Clicking the button once will toggle the Useragent of the Firefox to iPhone and another click will rollback ...

With the overwhelming popularity of YouTube these days it is considered like a benchmark against which all other video portals/websites are measured. Normally if you visit the YouTube and play some video there, it mostly starts in low quality. It is not necessarily a bad thing as it saves some bandwidth for the Internet users on low speed connections and makes these videos watchable, although at a lower resolution. But, if you have a very high speed Internet connection like many of us (here in Stockholm) ...

With the massive increase in Facebook popularity in a short period and also because of its social appeal & coolness factor every one is uploading photos from their family events, trip, a birthday party and so on to their Facebook profile for others in their social circle to view (and make comments).  On Facebook all the photos with the same theme can be put in to the same album. While it is convenient to view these photos from the Facebook web interface, it is not that convenient if you ...

Quick navigation to different website addresses is very important if you happen to be one of those power surfers and want to save some time. One way to save some time is by using a mechanism that allows easy navigation of different webpage URLS particularly if they are on the same domain.

After viewing this page you may want to go the main ...
