Firefox Converter Add-On

[TorzJohnson]

One of the most useful Firefox extensions is Converter. It was recently upgraded to do currency conversions in addition to units of weight, measure, temperature, etc. So if a member from the U.K. puts something on the Shaving Mall that costs £30, you don't have to google a conversion page. Just highlight and right-click the figure to convert it to your currency! WOOT!

You can also convert the whole page! double WOOT!

That's a pretty cool add-on!

you can also do the same thing in a google box:

try (for ex)...

36 deg F in C


25 usd in british pounds


3.8 liters in gallons

Yes, I see that's much more convenient than just a highlight/right-click.

Very cool! I've been using the tool built into google, but this is slick. No need to open another browser tab, copy/paste, etc ....

Thanks for the tip!

Is there anything Firefox can't do?

It doesn't make coffee yet but it can show you where to get good coffee so it's a leap forward!

It doesn't have an installed smelling feature. Imagine if you had a smelling feature so you could sample colognes or aftershaves

That would be interesting, but could easily backfire depending on what you were looking for...Don't search for the swine flu if this becomes an option...

Until this add-on can tell me the number of horns on a unicorn acre in tea spoons per light year I'll stick to Google thankyouverymuch.
