Here’s the cool stuff for today:

Property Records for Insurance? Use the internet. – This is an awesome idea and one I might work on soon. Of course, to index a full video game collection, that will take thousands of pictures. The advantage however would be easy sale when that day comes around to eBay the collection.

!note bookmarklet – A quick way to take text you’ve selected and save it to your Yahoo! Notepad, which I think will prove to be quite a handy device indeed.

MinimizeToTray This extension allows you to minimize FireFox to the system tray instead of a taskbar. If Desktop space is a big deal, this is a good place to start from.

Hard to Find 800 Numbers (Stephen could have used this at the store a bunch of times) – Doesn’t have a ton of numbers but the ones it has are awful nice.

Performancing (Blogging extension that gives you a split screen effect)

Feedping.com (I can use this to send my blog to lots of places)

Indeed Launches IM Interface (This may be what I don’t need, IM’s and job hunting together. Doesn’t that get you in trouble?)

Sorting your email with GMail (I saw this the other day, but it’s disposable e-mail, without the worrisome setup and time)

To-do List (Google now supports a to-do list … of course, I have to put adding that on ANOTHER to-do list)

8 Cool Firefox Plugins You Never Knew Existed (I missed this one, but this will make those rapidshare links much much easier!)

Google free proxy! (If you can’t access a page on your local Intranet, use this method to beat it. Google should be smart enough to know that translating from English to English is a bit dumb, mmmkay?)
