• The Things I Will Need Before Abandoning Firefox

    I should start by saying that Firefox has all but driven me away.  I can no longer ignore the way the performance has continued to deteriorate with successive versions.  I'm almost ready to switch to something else until they get their act together.  But the fact is that, for me, what Firefox offers is really hard to beat.

    So this is my list of must-haves before I'll consider using another browser setup on a regular basis.  I'm a professional web developer, and like many people reading this, I'm also an internet junkie.  So this isn't going to be the typical feature set.

    High Performance and Responsiveness

    Ever since the most recent Facebook redesign, you can't see your current status from the home page.  You have to go to your profile or find out through some other method.  This has been irking me, because the only time I update my status is when I got to my home page to read something and realize that it's old.

    Anyway, I was looking for something to do so I wrote a greasemonkey script that adds the status back to the home page.  You'll need the firefox add-on if you don't already have it.
