Updating the Better Extensions for Firefox 3.6 · Now that the Firefox 3.6 beta is available for download (portable version is here), it's time to start updating the Better Firefox extensions. The most popular ones, Better Gmail 2 and Better GReader, are already 3.6-compatible; the rest will come in the next few weeks. As always, join the Google Group to ask questions or make comments about the Better Firefox extensions. · November 11th, 2009, 1 comment
Just released an update to my Firefox add-on, Better GReader 0.7.2, which contains a few fixes plus a new integrated print button. Huge thanks to the folks at Mozilla for making Better GReader one of their official "Recommended" add-ons; it's now got over 33,000 active daily users (relatively small compared to Better Gmail 2's 304,000 daily users).
As always, a lively conversation about all the Better Webapps add-ons is going on on the mailing list. Hit us up with questions, problems, or requests there.
Download Better GReader and let us know what you think. My favorite feature: "Preview Item," which loads the originating web page right inside Google Reader.
Now that Mozilla's launched Add-on Collections, an easy way to subscribe to lists of good extensions for Firefox and friends, it only made sense to compile my series of Better extensions into a single collection.
Subscribe to the Better Webapps Firefox extension collection to get all the add-ons I'm still maintaining: Better Gmail 2, Better GReader, Better Amazon, Better YouTube, Better Flickr, Better GReader, and Better GCal. (Yes, some of these I maintain a bit more actively than others.)
You'll need Mozilla's official Add-on Collector to subscribe to the collection and others; if you do, you'll automatically get updates to it as we go along. If you have questions regarding any of the Better Webapps add-ons, hit up the mailing list.
Also, speaking of Better add-ons and collections, thanks to both Lifehacker and Download Squad for including Better Gmail 2 in their collections: Lifehacker's Must-Have Extensions and Downloadsquad Pack.
