Firefox/Thunderbird Plugins: Is Less More?

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?"

And THAT is one of the reasons I love Mozilla/Firefox so much. I have the flash click to play plugin, the remove anything plugin, and the do.animations(once) setting enabled. With popup blocking default this means that I get to the actual content of pages without constantly being distracted by ads. Being ADD means that flashing ads REALLY annoy me because it's virtually impossible for me to concentrate on the article with the ads flashing in my peripheral vision. I'm not the kind of person who changes my buying habits based on ads anyways (I almost never buy namebrand, I buy generic with an eye towards value.)
