@David – Sorry I missed you earlier. Your comment got trapped in Askimet – grr…

I tried Zemanta when I first started the site. I can’t remember why I didn’t like it so maybe I’ll take another look at it. Thanks!

Ajith,

I’ve liked it so far. I really like the admin link too.

Looks like a good FF extension... Especially the admin jump is useful for people who put that link out there open for all :) BWAB has admin links on her homepage itself... Ajith Edassery's last blog post - Things those are redundant or unused in a blog!

An excellent tool! For Wordpress bloggers on Firefox you might like to check out the Zemanta addon. It provides direct access to related off-site posts and CC images as you write. David Bradley's last blog post - Ayurvedic Heavy Metal

@Wesley – I’ll see what I can do. I write most of my articles on the weekend because I am so busy during the week. The articles for this week are basically done already.

Thanks for the plugin info – I’ll take a look at it.

@kuanhoong – Thanks! Hope you find it useful.

The plugin was "Highlight Author Comments" by Rob Marsh. Hm, I wouldn't consider that soon, but okay. Wesley's last blog post - FollowCost Is Useless

I don’t use a weather extension for Firefox right now but used to use ForecastFox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/398

They always have those messages about trusted sources – if you are getting them from the mozilla site, you should be fine.

Do you remember what plugin you tried for highlighting author comments?

And I will write an article about CSS and comments soon – though it won’t be this week.

Thanks!

Wow, there are a lot of options for weather widgets. It says that I should only install from sources I trust… how can I know who to trust on there? Which weather widget are you using (if any)?

Yes, that’s exactly what I meant. I found a plug-in for it that I installed but couldn’t get to work. A post about how to highlight author comments through CSS would be great!

I’m mad at Firefox right now for losing all of my bookmarks and saved passwords when I restored my system. We’re not on speaking terms at the moment. I’m still using it though.

And I forgot to mention that I meant I think bloggers, overall, are more tech savvy than other Internet users. The more tech savvy, the more likely they are to use Firefox – there isn’t anything about Firefox, however, that is directly related to blogging.
