5 Twitter Firefox plugins.

Here are 5 twitter firefox plugins you can use to enhance your twitter expierence. Some worth using. Some however are pointless if you’re using a twitter desktop app.


1)Twitbin: Twitbin is a Firefoz addon that enables you to tweet, send DMs. Receive DMs and keep up with twitter conversations from your browser sidebar

My thoughts: Takes up space where I keep my bookmarks.Prefer to use desktop client of the same abilites.

2)Powertwitter: Powertwitter enhances the twitter web interface. With powertwitter you can see images, youtube videos and the true links behind shortened urls.

My opinion: Some features of this addon are useful like the inline images. However, I Do feel it really slows things down when I’m browsing through twitter.

3)Twitter bar:
This plugin only allows you to tweet from your browser’s address bar. You can type your tweet in and hit the the “tweet this” button or you can just hit the “tweet this” button and it generates a tweet like “browsing; URL HERE”.

My opinion: I like this tool. Nice and easy to use and very useful if you share a lot of links on twitter

4) Twitter fox:
Twitter fox allows you to check updates @replies and DMs. You can also tweet. All you need to do is click on the small “t” on your status bar. Up pops twitter fox and you can see what’s happening.

My thoughts: Cool tool but I don’t see a need for it if you’re using a desktop app such as tweetdeck or thwirl.

5)Twittytunes: Another plugin that allows you to tweet from your browser. Simply click on the logo and up it pops. You can integrate foxytunes and this will then allow you to let people know what you’re listening to.


My thoughts
: Although I have it installed it is the plugin I use the least. I am not a fan of those who share what they’re listening to on twitter. It does work well. But personally I don’t see a use for it.

There you have it. What are your favourite twitter firefox plugins?
