autorefresh mozilla firefox

Sometimes I need a page or tab to refresh in my Firefox Browser. I’m running Firefox 2.0.0.7 in an XP environment. I did a quick search and it turns out there’s a nifty little add-on called ReloadEvery compliments of by Jaap Haitsma. I installed the ReloadEvery add-on and it’s just what I was looking for. It reloads pages at an interval you select from the drop down menu or you can set a custom refresh/reload rate. You can also access the ReloadEvery menu by right clicking the web page. Cool!

Start Stumbling!

I installed Stumble Upon in my browser to see what interesting things I could find out there on the 'net and I like this little tool. It has a thumbs up or thumbs down ratings system sort of like my TiVo and you can send sites you find to your friends via email. You select categories to stumble into from a list provided at signup and just start clicking the Stumble Upon toolbar to find things related to your interests. I've already bookmarked several sites I found today and this tool will help me find interesting things to share with my readers.
