Have a look at this animation, just by ‘Ctrl+Space’ to get the list of websites which have been included in the shortcuts and later hit the character, like by default if after the ‘Ctrl+Space’ you hit ‘t’ it launches Twitter, or you can use ‘Ctrl+Space+t’ directly.

Also, you can add new shortcuts by easily clicking on the Site Launcher tab in your Firefox, as shown below you can also manage these shortcuts using the same tab.

So, go ahead and enjoy the Site Launcher, this will save you lot of time.

You can upload image from your computer or from the web as well. After uploading image, two options are present to resize image and to rotate image.

Firefox add-on is present for ResizR so you can simply copy image with desired size. Just right click on image, you will get the option Resize image which automatically take URL of image and resize image for you.

Currently this tool supports only JPG files. Also they suggest that don’t increase the size to get better result. So always check original size of image and size after resizing. Again you can edit to get better result.

ResizR is useful for me with firefox add-ons to copy images with desired size from web. What about you?
