It's a fascinating read for those who've considered making the switch from desktop to web-based apps and to go along with it, I thought I'd post some Google app tricks, tips, and tweeks today. - -The nerds among you are no doubt familiar with the Firefox extension [Greasemonkey][2], which allows custom Javascript to manipulate webpages. There's some great Greasemonkey scripts out there for GMail, but finding them all can be a pain. - -To make it a little easier to add GMail Greasemonkey scripts to Firefox, Gina Trapani over at Lifehacker has collected the best of the bunch and make a cool Firefox plugin called [Better GMail][3]. - -Better GMail includes 14 different Greasemonkey scripts designed to make Gmail more useable. Standouts include conversation previews -- right click a conversation and get a preview of all the messages without leaving the current page -- and saved searches which uses a browser cookie to create a list of saved searches. - -There's a whole bunch of good stuff in Better Gmail and if you're a heavy GMail user you'll appreciate the added workflow tools. - -Note that you don't need to have Greasemonkey installed for this to work and if you do you may want to disable any overlapping scripts. I didn't have any problems in my testing, but just to be on the safe side I'd recommend getting rid of the standalone scripts if you already have them. - -Also note that this extension doesn't seem to work with optimized builds of Firefox, but I've filed a bug on that so hopefully the problem will be fixed. - -[1]: http://www.wired.com/software/softwarereviews/news/2007/04/lavidagoogle "Livin' la Vida Google: A Month-Long Dive Into Web-Based Apps" -[2]: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748 "Firefox Add-ons: Greasemonkey" -[3]: http://lifehacker.com/software/gmail/lifehacker-code-better-gmail-firefox-extension-251923.php "Better Gmail Firefox extension"
