Google Becomes Default Location Provider For Firefox

,----[ Quote ]
| Many of us have been saying it for a long time: location based services are 
| the future. But up until now they’ve been a distant, hazy future, because 
| they’ve been so difficult to use. That’s going to change soon, and it looks 
| like Google is going to be leading the way.   
| 
| Google has just announced that it has become the default location provider 
| service in Firefox, which means beginning in the latest Firefox Beta 
| (available here) users will be able to update their location from their web 
| browser without having to install an extra plugins or programs through 
| Google. This is big.

20 useless Firefox add-ons (slideshow)

,----[ Quote ]
| There are more than 7,000 Firefox extensions in Mozilla's official catalog, 
| and a good portion of them can drastically improve how you browse the Web. 
| Then there are the stinkers. These add-ons that actually make the browser 
| slower, or harder to use. We've compiled a list of 20 that you should steer 
| clear from, if only for their lack of basic utility.
