Firefox Hacks

Nigel McFarlane, O'Reilly, 0596009283

This hack book covers a great deal of ground. If you are a die-hard web surfer, and use firefox extension etcetera, you should read this book. After reading the Google Hacks book I had some objections against the Hacks series; You can’t read them from front to back in one go. They’re much more like newspapers, where you just pick the topics you’re interested in.

Couldn’t I just as well have learned about these hacks online? Knowing myself, probably not. I always try to work goal-driven whilst I’m “surfing”. This book shows me stuff whose links I probably would never have followed.
