My Portable Firefox

/Cooliris/
This is a image-searching tool. It looks like Google Images.
When getting tired of searching information on the Internet relying only on words I sometimes use this tool.

/FoxyTunes/
This is a music player on FireFox. More than likely, many students surf web pages and listen to music at the same time, especially at home. Foxy Tunes enable them to control a music player such as Windows Media Player or iTunes on the window of FireFox. I often use this tool at home.

/Tree Style Tab/
This is probably the most useful add-on of these three.

(hope you can see this image)
As we know, the default setting for seeing tab is horizontal. However, for me, vertical tabs are much better to see.

In addition, new tab from a current page is automatically indented like this. It is impossible if tabs are horizontal.


By the way, there is a small problem for Mac users at home including me; Portable FireFox ver.3.5.3. (the newest version) is not available on Mac!
So I now use Portable FireFox only at the library. However, Portable FireFox which is customized for me is still very useful there. Now I cannot imagine if there were no P-FireFox.
Anyway, I hope someone create a compatible FireFox for both Windows and Mac.
