Hey, I'd like to know what extensions everyone is using in FireFox.

Here are the ones I'm using.

FireFTP - a fantastic FTP tool that's integrated into the browser.: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/684/

Download Statusbar - When you download something, it puts a progress bar on the bottom of your browser so you can easily see how far along you are.: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/26/

Gmail Space: Allows you to access your gmail space for storage. It also includes a streaming media player, so that you can put mp3 and wav files on your gmail space, then stream them onto your machine whenever you feel like it. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1593/

Video Downloader: puts an icon in the corner of your browser. When you visit a site that shows videos (YouTube, for example), clicking the icon will download the vid for you automatically. Works on a plethora of different vid sites): https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2390/

View Source Chart: Shows the source code for websites in a much more readable fashion. Colored. Highly helpful. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/655/

Web Developer: Features lots of tools that can help us web guys look at and diagnose a page. I haven't actually had time to use this one a whole lot yet, but another guy at works swears by it. From what he's showed me, it's pretty nifty, I just haven't used it a whole lot yet. : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/60/

So now what are the rest of you using?

Do you mean a new tab? If so it's CTRL-T or go to the Files menu and select "New Tab".
