There are ordinary browsers, and there are very good browsers. One of the things that distinguishes a browser from another is its features. There have been many good browsers in recent years but ultimately, Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox stand out.
These two browsers have amazing features and we are going to explore one of such features in this article, which is the installation of extensions that integrate with these browsers easily to give you a pleasant browsing experience. I am going to list five extensions that will help improve your browsing experience, be it on Google's chrome or Mozilla's Firefox browser, and explain why you need to get these extensions integrated into your browser.
First on the list is an extension called "Fireshot", it is really awesome. With this extension, you can capture an entire webpage you open or certain portions of the page that you might deem relevant to you. You can eventually save the captured page as an image onto your computer either in a picture format or PDF format. If the captured page holds important information, you can copy it onto your phone or tablet after saving it, which is very easy as compared to saving an entire web page with its accompanied folders, that cannot be copied onto a phone or tablet.
The second on this list is the "Turn off back light" extension. If you are someone who loves to watch videos online, then this extension is for you. Sometimes, you would realise that some video sites have lots of video thumbnails in the background whiles watching a main video which could sometimes be distractive. with "turn off back light", it dims the entire browser screen leaving the area showing the video you are playing, allowing you to have a clearer view of the video being played and also be less distracted. This extension is very effective on video sites that have a white background.
The third on the list is AdBlock. AdBlock is an extension that comes in to block all those unnecessary pop ups that you cannot control. Sometimes, all it takes is a click on a web page and you have other web pages popping up in different windows which could be annoying. AdBlock takes care of this problem.it enables you enjoy your browsing experience without necessarily having to go through the pain of closing pop-up windows. You can also tweak the settings to control certain pages, that is, if it is a site that requires a pop up browser to enable you access extra information.
Number four is a favourite for many who use it. It is the video downloader extension. Almost everyone who gets unto the internet loves to download, be it music or videos. Sometimes, it is very difficult to download free videos and music and this is where video downloader becomes most relevant. All you have to do is open the page with the download content, click on the item you want to download and once it opens, or starts playing, the video downloader button will become active. All you simply do now is to click on the video downloader icon and select the file to download, that easy.
Finally, I can't end this article without touching on social media extensions. Yes, most social media platforms also have extensions that have been successfully integrated into these web browsers. The instagram extension is one of the amazing social media extensions. Some find it difficult to access instagram and its full features on their web browsers. for those who do not have bluestacks (android emulator for pc) to open instagram on your computer, the instagram extension is a very good option available for you. It enables you to view your profile, followers, those you are following, comment on posts, and also like posts. You can also view popular photos, invite friends and search for users or tags. The instagram extension can also be popped out of the browser to stand on its own. Other social media extensions include Facebook and twitter. These extensions emulate the way these social media sites work in a very simplified way, so you can be browsing while viewing your social media feeds in a drop down box on the side at the same time without necessarily opening new tabs.
With the listed extensions above and other relevant extensions you might find important, I hope your browsing experience will be improved in a significant way.
