5 Best Firefox extensions for Social media sites
Firefox never disappoints you when it comes to Add-ons that can save you time and open up new opportunities. There is hardly any task Firefox add-ons can’t assist you with. Today, I have gathered a list of some of the best Firefox Extensions for Social media addicts.
1. Shareaholic
Shareaholic is a Firefox extension that lets you quickly evaluate web page popularity by telling you the number of times the web page you’re on has been dugg or saved to del.icio.us. It will give you details such as, if the item is dugg, how many diggs, and number of comments. Clicking on it will either submit a new item (if it is new) or bring you to the page that already exists.
Shareaholic currently supports posting to bit.ly, connotea, digg, delicious, facebook, foxiewire, friendfeed, google bookmarks, google reader, gmail, healthranker, kaboodle, magnolia, meneame, mixx, myspace, plurk, reddit, simpy, soup.io, stumbleupon, streakr, tipjoy, truemors, tumblr, twine, twitter, weheartit, yahoo! buzz, ycombinator, bzzster, etc
2. Digg FireFox Extention
Digg FireFox Extention is specially made for Digg addicts. The Digg Extension for Firefox provides a light and streamlined approach to staying connected to the latest popular content on Digg. Everything you need is placed under a Digg menu found at the top of the browser.
You’ll also find recent story submissions, recently popular stories, the top ten stories, and the hottest Upcoming stories. For each of these, the extension shows the Digg and comment count updated in real time. Clicking on any of these take you to the story in a new tab so you don’t lose track of your current page. Want to try something different? Click on the Random Story link to see a random story on Digg.
3. Social Media by Marious
This is an excellent Firefox add-on that lets you view if a submission on Digg, Reddit, StumbleUpon, or Delicious has been submitted to any of the others. Also see the vote count for the URL currently being viewed.
In addition, vote counts are shown in the Firefox status bar as you move from page to page again saving you the trouble of going through the bookmarking process if someone has beat you to it.
4. Glue
Glue offers a new, smarter way for you to connect with friends around things you visit. When you navigate to popular sites like Amazon, Netflix, Last.fm, Wine.com or Citysearch the Glue Bar will automatically show you which of your friends visited the same thing around the web. Glue works automatically as you browse popular sites about books, music, movies, wines, restaurants, gadgets, stocks, actors, tv shows and other everyday things around the web.
The Glue Bar appears right on your current page to show you friends who looked at the same things and what they thought. It offers
- Fun way to connect with friends around the web
- Makes it easy to save or add comments to things you like
- Lets you discover new things through your old friends
- Helps you find new friends through things you like
5. Social Media for FireFox
Social Media for FireFox is basically a status bar that will show you how many votes content has at many social media sites. It shows the number of Diggs, Reddit Votes, Stumble Thumbs and or Reviews, and Del.icio.us tags, so you can quickly see how popular certain content is. It will also show you what content hasn’t been submitted to other social news sites so you can be the first to add it.
