Firefox Add-ons

I just installed two nice add-ons, both Google map related. Both are incredibly simple. The first allows you to highlight an address on a web page, right click and map it with Google maps. Simple, but something I do all the time.

The second is even more useful. Same concept but you set your home address (and optionally two other addresses) and when you highlight an address on a web page you can right click and get directions from your home to that address (supports either Google or Yahoo).

To me these show how sometimes the simplest little addition to functionality can make all the difference.
