How many search engines plugine do you have added to your Firefox? I have the defaults as Google seems to be the only one I need.
However, if you need more then what Firefox offers out of the box, there are many other search engine plugins available for Firefox. Wikipedia, YouTube, Torrentz, just to name a few.
Currently YouTube is on top with the most downloads. Followed by Dictionary.com, isoHunt and The Pirate Bay.
The Mycroft project has a list of the top 25 most popular search engine plugins. Browse the list.
Finally managed to upgrade to WordPress 2.5 yesterday.
Loving the automatic update and install feature for my plugins. However, the Popularity Contest plugin and Popularity Contest Widget are not compatible with WordPress 2.5 yet.
Get WordPress 2.5
Wait no longer, WordPress 2.5 is out!!
The shiny new WordPress has gone through a major overhaul with tones of new features where mostly all new features were requested by the WordPress community.
New dashboard, enhanced tag support, updated WYSIWYG editor, better search better encryption for passwords and cookies, built in galleries, one-click plugin upgrades and support for multiple uploads. Full feature list
I’ve been playing the RC for the past week and I’m loving it. It’s going to be sometime before my plugins are fully supported but ya, this is one WordPress release you should not miss.
Download WordPress 2.5 here.

WordPress 2.5 missed it’s initial release date but not for a bad reason. There’s quite a bit of work being put into the new version especially in the dashboard area.
The editor is receiving a much needed face lift and feature boost. The media manager now supports multiple uploads like flickr and support for embedding videos is being added as a standard feature.
Other new features include a image gallery, faster load times, gravatar support, one-click plugin upgrades, full text feeds and improved tags management.
There’s a screencast of 2.5 rc2 available for you to get a glimpse of what in 2.5. Watch it here.
Looking good eh?
The WordPress 2.5 plugin compatibility list will help you decide if your favorite plugins are ready for 2.5.
