How to Disable Smart Location Bar in Firefox 3

Firefox-3After days of tweaking my new Firefox 3.0, I found out that one so-called top new features of Firefox is not so pleasing - Smart Location Bar or the Awesome Bar.

The Smart Location Bar is just too “smart” to an extent that it saves my viewed browsing history without my knowledge! The auto complete feature is fine with me but I would still prefer the old Firefox 2.0 way in handling my addresses. I tried to disable this “smart” option via the Option menu but there is no direct way to do it. So, I have to do it the indirect way via about:config or with a help of an extension.

My Favorite Firefox 3.0 Upgrade

Around last week I made the switch to Firefox 3.0 RC 2. I wanted to get my feet wet in the browser before it came out and once Foxmarks was released there was no more reasons for delay.

I have to admit the browser is stunning. The list of improvements seems endless, but there is one that I think shine above the rest.

This was in my opinion the new address bar. The new address bar is possibly the most noticeable yet functioning addition to Firefox 3. For me it is because I have over 1500 bookmarks and sorting through them was a pain. Finding them in my jungle of folders and sub folders was about impossible and I am not fond of using social bookmarks as my default. The new address bar makes it really easy to find your bookmarks and traffic history by only inserting part of the URL or a description. So if I want to find Blogiseverything, I could just type in, “everything,” and sure enough the site would be on the list. Also they have integrated the tagging system in to the bookmark manager. You can tag your favorite site for quick reference. One more bonus to the address bar was the little star on the right hand corner. It gives you the functionality to bookmark a page with only one click. For there you can find it in the new folder titled, “Unsorted Bookmarks.” As you can see the address bar is a big upgrade.

Faster Browsing Tweak For Internet Explorer And Firefox

By default, browsers are optimized for dial-up. But if you are on broadband, you can expect more speed.

This is a ‘pipelining’ tweak that increase the maximum simultaneous connections per page for faster internet connection like broadband for faster browsing.

This is a pretty much self explained video, so enjoy!

 

I’ve tried this tweak on my Firefox and it does enhance my browsing speed.

Backup Everything on Firefox

FebeToday, I come across this very, very handy Firefox extension. It’s Firefox Extension Backup Extension (FEBE) or better known as just FEBE. It’s an extension to backup all extensions on Firefox.

FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up — It will actually rebuild your extensions individually into installable .xpi files. Now you can easily synchronize your office and home browsers.

But wait, not just extensions. FEBE backups everything, from extensions to your cookies – simple to say, it backups just about everything that Firefox offers.
