Add Ons
Firedrga For maxthon-like drag to search, with option for drag to open in the case of links. Uses the search engine selected in the search bar. Change the minimum drag to 10, text search to open in background.
QuickLocaleSwitcher To change the FF interface language.
[addons://detail/google-image-search@cal Google Image Search] Click images to search for others the same on Google image search.
Tab Colors Better than the standard gloomy Firefox theme.
Always ".com" Google.com in English Essential for expats because google insists on redirecting users to the language prevalent in the locale of the ip address of the user irrespective of the preferred language in the browser (selected in tools>options>contents>language) and irrespective of how one sets one search preferences. Crazy.

Not sure if the following are working or needed.
Add to search bar Not working automatically but better than nothing. I am not seeing a way of adding search engines, such as flickr creative commons, flickr my images, and google scholar, to the list without using an add-on.

Download Flash and Video allows us to do what it says, with a button at the bottom right of the screen.

FlashstopperSo that youtube videos (and many others) do not play as soon as the page loads.
