Author [OT] Killer New FF Extension
Blinky the Shark

2007-03-09, 6:22 am

I just discovered a killer new (January, IIRC) extension for FF that
works with Adblock Plus.

You're not limited to images and Flash, now...this one lets you block
by element. Text, a bunch of images...whatever's in there never gets to
your screen. And this is accomplished by clicking a cursor cross-hairs
on the element you want to block, the hover having highlighted it and
shown you its description. Kill a whole div? Sure! :)

As a test, I played around with the IMDB pages. I don't use any of the
clicky stuff at the top, and I don't need the Amazon ad towards the
upper right corner. (You may; I only offer this as an example.)

Go look at an IMDB movie page.

Compare:

That only took about four point-and-shoot actions.
