NoScript is a great Firefox extension that lets you hand-pick which web sites to be allowed to use JavaScript, Java, and Flash. You can surf online safer and faster(because of fewer JavaScripts running).

Another cool thing about it is that by looking at what domains NoScript allows and blocks(right-click on the "S" icon), you get an idea of what kind of services a website uses. BTW, you can just look at the HTML page source codes to find out what JavaScripts are loaded if you have too much time.

For example, you can see my site loads JavaScripts from "google-analytics.com","performancing.com", "crazyegg.com"(all 3 are web analytics services), "meebo.com"(the Meebo chat widget).

Here's my plan for Scuttlelicious 0.2.1

• fetch user's recent popular tags and display them
• restore the display of a progress dialog when a bookmark is posted to server(this was in versions prior to 0.2, but I removed it. Now I regret the decision because the posting can "freeze" Firefox if the connection to the bookmarking server is slow)
• automatically notify users that an update is available through Firefox's extension window

Please let me know if you have any suggestion.

During the development of Scuttlelicious, I've found the following pages very useful for developing Firefox extensions:

• Getting started with extension development - since Firefox 1.5, you can set up your extension development environment such that you don't need to rebuild an extension, reinstall it every time you make some changes. It saves a lot of time!
• Setting up extension development environment - there are a couple of things that you can set in Firefox to make development and debugging easier

I've upgraded Scuttlelicious to version 0.2 for Firefox 1.5:

• Click here to install.

Change:

• Added the ability to set the privacy level of the bookmark being posted under the page info tab and save the bookmarking privacy level preference under the login tab. This works with scuttle.org. Please download latest codes (specifically, api/posts_add.php) from Scuttle if you run your own copy of Scuttle.

• The following statement is out-dated because the Scuttle's developer has applied my patch to the source tree.

I've upgraded Scuttlelicious to version 0.1.1 to work with Firefox 1.5.

Click here to install.

The only change I made was to make Scuttlelicious to be compatible with Firefox 1.5 in the "install.rdf" file.

However, there's a bug with the version. The submit bookmark dialog doesn't disappear by automatically after one posts a bookmark successfully. It disappears when any part of it is clicked, or when you switch windows. I only tested this in Windows 2000. Please let me know if you have the same problem with any other platform.
