Some Ideas for Firefox Add-ons
- Jesse Ruderman's Extension Ideas
- Shared Tab - implement a web service and extension that allows you to open a tab that is followed and changed by all the people granted access to it.
- Web spell checker - extends spell checker to work on the text of an HTML page. This would be useful as a development tool.
- Lock tab - make a tab impossible to close without unlocking it first. Prevents tabs from being accidentally closed. (Sounds like PermaTabs).
- Map helper. Extends existing mapping tools (Google Maps, Yahoo! Maps, etc), allowing to create custom location and route sets, which can be stored locally or even shared remotely.
- Podcast player. Adds a sidebar where live bookmarks in a specific folder are displayed and considered as podcasts (a la Sage).
- A small area will include controls for playing the selected podcast episode which and a playlist area.
- It could use the default media plugin (Windows Media Player, QuickTime, etc.) or embed an open source player like XSPF. **A user should be able to set episodes to be downloaded automatically. **The podcast list will show which episodes are being downloaded and which have completed if it's the case. Mockup.
- Show mp3 tags if available in a third sidebar area.
- Bonus: export as m3u list.
