Been an Opera user for years, i have said before, the one single thing that could make me change to Firefox was if it changed its disfunctional back feature. It was by far the most used feature by any web surfer yet its crap.

Then I heard about deer park alpha 1, alpha 2 was even better. Now i have converted fully to firefox. Firefox may still be a tad slower and feels just abit more "heavier" than opera, but the killer extensions for me were scrapbook and the new "tab preview" extension. Can't live without those now ...

Thanks for the tip! Scrapbook seems like the tool to use instead of bookmarks in many cases.

Personally, I can't do without Platypus;

Platypus allows you to do quick edits of a page and to save the page layout as a script. The next time you visit the page -- or the whole site -- you only see what you want. Very very practical.
