Ok.. I really like my larger monitor.. but now that I have Old Guy Eyes it’s tougher to comfortably read everything on this screen now that the stuff is so small at this higher resolution.

I switched back to Firefox browser recently and use the noscript addon.. now I’ve found my 2nd favorite one.. nosquint!  Let’s me set the text and image zoom level for each site and remembers those settings.  You can make a zoom level the default for all pages if you like.. something you can’t do in Firefox by itself.  I usually keep the images set to normal 100% and bump up just the text to 120%.  Keeps things from looking stretched, fuzzy etc but makes the text readable on this 22″ monitor for my aging vision.

3rd favorite addon? Xmarks.. hands down.  The ease that we can all synchronize all our bookmarks (remember.. four kids and four computers) across all the rigs and all the browsers is so nice.  Have access to your bookmarks from anywhere online too at the xmarks.com website too.

Others I like are Personal Menu to get rid of the menu bar.. Mouse Gestures even though I only use like 2% of it.. and Read It Later.
