It is Sunday again I finally have to the time to sit down and let the week pass by.

Here are the milestones of this week:

• Monday: Another partnership confirmed involving SustainabilityForum.com
• Tuesday: Had a great meeting with my developer in London. Things are moving forward there as well.
• Wednesday: Another media partnership and sponsor signup.
• Thursday & Friday: Travelling to Hamburg and initial meeting with a new client – a very productive meeting indeed.
• Saturday & Sunday: Relaxing, shopping, washing cars and spending a lot of quality time with Anne.

So, all in all a lot of work. But that is just how I like it.

I also wrote several new posts here and on my other blogs:
On this blog I started a new series of domain name posts. The aim is to provide an overview of the whole concept of domain names and more. Domain Names – Part 1
The second was a post on my favourite Firefox add-ons. I find Firefox really useful so I thought I would share it with my readers.  Firefox Add-Ons

On SustainabilityBlog.org Kim Leslie, a writer in the Sustainability Writers Network wrote a great post on packeting in the IT sector and how things are changing there for the better. IT Sector and Packeting
Then two days later I was delighted to see Amy Fetzer submitting an article on the sustainable practices of Universities.

So all in all a really great week.

Next week will be just as busy with a lot of work until Thursday when I have to go to Hamburg for another two days again.

So let’s go and relax for another few hours and then bring on the new week

All the best,
Fabian

I have been a fan of Firefox for years now. One of the qualities of this browser in my opinion is the amount of add-ons you can install to make your life easier when you browsing the net, and doing your daily work.

This post is about the add-ons I am using to make surfing more convenient, be more efficient or get the information I need quickly.

Here are the add-ons I am using. I can recommend all of them:

For Bookmarking:

• Delicious Bookmarks
• If you use Firefox on more than one computer, you’ll want Foxmarks

For more Efficiency and Easier Web Browsing:

• Do screenshots and more with FireShot
• InFormEnter adds a small, clickable icon next to every input field in a web form, from where you can select the item to be inserted – no typing required. Very useful.
• Easy shrink any long URL or link in the page to something you can email or Twitter using the TinyUrl service with a single click in your browser.
• Download Statusbar. For easier download status integrated into Firefox
• Use PDF Download to do whatever you like with PDF files on the Web.
• Embedding Internet Explorer in tabs of Mozilla/Firefox. The IE Tab.

For more Information while Surfing the Net:

• FlagFox shows the country of the server of the website you are browsing
• FoxClocks lets you keep an eye on the time around the world – or just your local time – by putting small clocks in your statusbar
• The SEO Quake Extension aimed primarily at helping web masters who deal with search engine optimization and internet promotion of web sites.

Website Management:

• FireFTP. FTP integrated into Firefox. Indespensible.

Obviously are there are a lot more out there so here is the link to the Firefox Add-ons page:
