Firefox/Thunderbird Plugins: Is Less More?

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the fighting-against-bloatware dept.

comforteagle writes "I've published the first of a two part look at the new dynamic duo of Mozilla's Firefox and Thunderbird. While most folks thus far agree with the 'less is more' mantra when it comes to the base applications, the plugins seem to be a different story. Hey, there's little wiggle room to debate that the firefox base application (the subject of the first article) isn't the shizzle, but how about the add-ons and plugins? For that matter, do you agree that less is more. or is too little included?"

    unless your talking sex where more is defintely better. Then again what am I thinking? This is /. after all. Less is More is the lie that must become the Geek Truth to help the 90% of the crowd that's not getting any :P
