3 useful Firefox 3 'awesome bar' hacks

The Firefox 3 honeymoon is over.

It is indeed awesome, but it could use a little tweaking to keep your surfing a high-speed affair, right? You're in luck, because there are some easy tweaks.

If like me, you dislike the new so called "Awesome Bar".

Use this add-on I created, and am constantly trying to improve.

I hate the awesome bar, it's the worst thing in Firefox 3. I'm quite tempted to go back to 2 just so I don't have to put up with it anymore...

Kakkoii6538d ago

Well, did you try the add-on I posted?

It's pretty close to FF2's. Except it also searches a websites description still =/. But it's not to much of a crutch overall.

Kakkoi, thanks for that, really needed it. Bubbles.

OpiZA6538d ago

I really have no complaints. When i was trying the beta's it was quite a shock at first... but i've come to appreciate it and i wouldn't go back

SiLeNt KNighT6537d ago

yeah thats what ive been telling people. just give it a chance. change is hard to get used to but once you do you will NEVER go back. its called an awesome bar for a reason!! =P thanks to kakkoii though!! im sure theres a ton of people that would love to just keep it simple and the same. bubbles for him for the good lookin out!!

juandren6537d ago

How can anybody NOT like the bar? Just give it some time. I love it

MANCREEP6537d ago

Dude, I'd like to have Firefox instead of Opera for my Blackberry's browser. I wonder if it would be faster, cause Opera is pretty damn fast.

cyclindk6537d ago

I was just thinking...they should make a game called "Firefox," no based upon the Clint Eastwood movie of the same title (good movie).

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing14d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit15d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing14d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9214d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
