    They're probably really nice and elegant and all that but ... are they not just a wee bitty dull? I mean, two out of the three winners appear to create thumbnails of pages (whether from the history or other open pages). And while Web Developer is a fantastic package it's hardly cutting edge and new. I was hoping for something with real pizzaz. Something where the very idea and description was enough to make me go, "wow".

    Anyone else find it a bit anticlimactic?

    Do not install all the entrants at once. It would be bad.

    I can't live without the Abe Vigoda Status extension (FYI -- he's alive as of 8:30am US Eastern Time).
