The New Mozilla Recommended Add-ons List:


Adblock Plus by Wladimir Palant
It’s funny to imagine what many advertisers’ reactions will be when they see this plug-in officially sanctioned by Mozilla. It had to be on the list by popular demand, though, if for no other reason.
blueorganizer by Adaptive Blue
We profiled blueorganizer briefly at DEMO. It’s a smart tool for organizing the information you discover online.
Clipmarks by Clipmarks
An interesting social bookmarking tool with a strong emphasis on sharing and excerpts.

Cooliris Previews
by The Cooliris Team
A plug in that provides pop-up previews of Google, image and other search results from inside the search results page. I don’t care for this at all, but I do like the company’s new photo slide show plug-in for Safari.
Download Statusbar by Devon Jensen
A feature rich download manager that sits in a toolbar that hides when not in use.
FoxyTunes by Alex Sirota
A music player control panel that sits in the browser, so you don’t have to switch applications.

Greasemonkey
by Aaron Boodman
It’s great that Greasemonkey is included in this list. It’s a whole different paradigm, allowing user-developed JavaScript to be set on top of any web page.
JAJAH by Gilad Katz
We’ve written about Jajah here, it lets you make free and low cost phone calls around the world from inside your browser or by cell phone. Michael Arrington called it a killer VOIP product.
Map+ by Ara Agopian
A very simple tool that launches a Yahoo! Map of any address you highlight on a web page. I use this and like it quite a bit, when I remember to use it.
Pronto by Pronto, Inc.

Alerts you while shopping online if it can find the same product for a lower price on another shopping site.
Other new stars include ChatZilla, an IRC chat plug-in, the web page development tool FireBug, a related project called Web Developer, FireFTP, multi-link downloader FlashGot and weather tool Forecastfox.
