Review | Firefox addon: AutoPager

Haven’t scouted for new FF addons since forever but am truly happy to have found this one. Works great on Google and YouTube (plus many more handy sites), which in itself will save me tons of clicks in the future:) And trust me, I’m not doing it justice with words, you really have to try it on Google images and just glide effortlesly through literally(!) hundreds of results in mere seconds!…

There’s also tweaks galore to customize it any which way you desire, but apart from setting the add-on to auto-detect I let them be – and it works great. When you don’t want to use it, the conveniently placed button in the status bar lets you turn it off/on with a no-fuss single click. Sweet!

This should give you a rough idea of how it works (notice the little green box notice in the bottom left corner-it lets you know when the next page is loading)

WEEKLY TRIBUTE
A small tribute to conspiracy theories, big brothers, small print, corruption (yeah, this one seems more like a small-fish local matter, but it just might change a thing or two in EU’s policy on arms deals) and Eric Arthur Blair who saw through it all.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain! (Harvey Dent)*

*The best quote I could think of comes from a friggin movie I recently saw…something definitely ain’t right in this spinning dirt-ball we live on

A small tribute to spending these exam days as wisely and productively as possible!
