Make the internet faster with Firefox !

I suspect that when you browse the Internet, you do not want to be bothered, I'm the same. Internet has become over time a load of crap! Excuse some of the term, but must admit that is all ... and most anything! To be in the best conditions, here is 13 Firefox extensions for a fast and reliable Internet browsing.

• Omnibar : Extension that combines the Firefox address bar with the search bar. This function is the same as that in Google Chrome.

• Adblock Plus : Annoyed by adverts? Install this extension now to regain control of what you see on the Web.

• The Old Reader Notifier : This Web service has become my official RSS feed reader since the death of Google Reader. This Firefox extension allows you to have the number of unread items in the toolbar.

• Feedly :  It is an RSS reader. Unlike The Old Reader, it was Feedly who took the gain from the closure of Google Reader.

• FastestFox : An extension to optimize your routine tasks. FastestFox helps you to search for information on the web, browse Wikipedia, visit your favorite websites, do copy & paste and other tasks.

• Super Start : Extension that provides a personalized home page. You can view the most popular pages or set of links on the homepage.

• DuckDuckGo : With all the privacy issues these days, it is probably better to choose another search engine to Google. Its main competitor is called DuckDuckGo! And of course it offers a Firefox extension.

• Evernote Clearly : An extension from Evernote, it eliminates all distractions from your reading experience online and even allows you to browse articles on several pages in a uniform display.

• WOT : Allows you to safely navigate by knowing reliable websites on the basis of the experience of millions of users worldwide.
