Site Launcher: Another reason to love FireFox

Now this is a superb plugin for firefox user and I fell in love with it instantly. “Site Launcher” is one of many other keyboard shortcut addon available for Firefox but the twist here is that it doesn’t require you to remember all of those shortcuts which you have programmed and give you a visual window with the icons of all your favorite sites and a single alphabet associated with it, pressing which will obviously take you to the corresponding site.

The simplest of all, this window pops up in the center of your page when you simply press ctrl+space on your keyboard.

The good this (according to my liking at least) that the site will open up in a new tab by default but the users will be able to change this in the options along with the host of many other tune up settings which are accessible through the main file menu of Firefox.

The addon default configured sites are as you can see in the first image of this article but the list can be amended and enhanced according to your taste.

A complete list of features from the product download page are.

Feature highlights

• Because each site key is displayed in the Launcher, you don’t have to memorize a bunch of key combinations to have shortcuts to loads of sites, only one hotkey.
• Default hotkey is customizable, in case you need it for something else.
• Add as many sites to SiteLauncher as you want.
• Just about any character key can be associated with a site, you’re not limited to just a-z, 0-9.
• Because you press the hotkey first, no matter what key you assign to each site, you can be sure you will not cause conflict with any of Firefox’s built-in shortcuts
• Highly customizable appearance – change colors, text size, spacing, column size, etc
• Optional visual effects – transparency, rounded corners, and gradients
• You can have your site shortcuts automatically arranged or manually arranged in the order you want them to appear inside the Launcher
• Set Launcher to open sites in current or new tab
• Optionally, set Launcher to appear on startup instead of your homepage

The addon is a must have for all firefox users and the one who normally spend most of their time surfing the Internet and I recommend this for everybody.
