Getting Started with Firefox extension - Diigo help - 5 views

  •  Feature Highlight: Highlights Diigo saves the day with "highlights". Highlights let you select the important snippets on a page and store them in your library with the page's bookmark. Let's try it. Just open a page, maybe one of your old-school bookmarks or one of your new cat bookmarks, and find the information on that page you actually care about. Select that important text. Got it? Okay, now put your hemet on, 'cause this might blow your mind! Click the highlight icon on the Diigo toolbar. It's the one with the "T" on a page with a yellow highlighter. You will notice that the selected text gets a yellow background. This means that the text has been saved in your library, and as long as you have the Diigo add-on the text will be highlighted on the page! How's that for easy?   Now you've highlighted the text. It will appear in your library within the bookmark for the page it is on. Go to your library and you can see how it works. If you're not sure how to get to your library, just click the second icon on the toolbar (Diigo icon to the left of the search bar) and then select "My Library »".
  • Sticky Notes on the Web What? I can put a sticky note on a web page? How? Oh, that's right! Diigo. Just right-click anywhere on the page and choose to "add a floating sticky note". Type up your note and choose "Post", then move the note anywhere on the page. You have to type a note first, before you move it where you want, otherwise there's nothing to move!

How To Disable / Enable HTTP Header Refresh in Mozilla Firefox - 0 views

  •  
    By default, Firefox will start the download of an executable file specified in the http header. This occurs without active scripting, which means standard security add-ons such as No Script will not prevent this from occurring. To stop unintentional redirects or malicious downloads, follow the instructions below to disable http header refresh in Firefox version 3 (characteristic not available in previous versions; upgrading and disabling is recommended).

Tech Digest : Real-time Twitter searches on Google results - 0 views

  • The Firefox add-on that brings Twitter results to your traditional search pages
  • Have a click on the image just here on the right and once it's bigged itself up, you'll notice it's a Google search page with five Twitter results at the top. That's because some clever soul over on MT-Hacks has created code for the Greasemonkey add-on for Firefox which offers a degree of real-time search on Google. Very neat indeed.
  • Head over to MT-Hacks to get the Twitter search add-on for your browser and see what you make of it.

    Useful for highly local news/search in particular.

The other unique feature that truly sets it apart is that it lets you use math and science symbols and equations to search. This is especially helpful when searching for topics that are related to a formula or symbol, vs. just a word.
