Firefox Cheatsheet
Aug 20th
Now that I'm a firefox user, I figured it would be worthwhile to post a list of useful firefox links and plugins so here they are:
- The firefox cheat sheet: http://lesliefranke.com/2006/06/22/mozilla-firefox-cheat-sheet-update/
- SearchStatus – provides a PageRank & Alexa Rank notice for all sites at the bottom of your browser. May not be all that fancy or useful you'd think but it's pretty nice to see the pagerank for various websites while you['re browsing them.
- TabMixPlus – This is really handy. It tracks your tabs and should your browser crash, your computer reboot, etc, it will restore your tabs for you to how they were.
Embedding Video in WordPress
Aug 20th
I enabled the WP-Extremevideo plugin from: http://www.rossgerbasi.com/2006/01/21/extreme-video-plugin-20/ in my wordpress blog so that now I can edit movies directly into a blog entry. This plugin is great as it allows all types of videos including, YouTube, Google Videos, FLV, Quicktime, etc. An example of a youtube video is shown below.
