Better Flickr : Firefox add-on of the day

Filed under: Fun, Internet, Photo, Windows, Macintosh, Linux, Blogging, Web services, Yahoo!, Freeware, Browser Tips

In the spirit of the amazing Better Gmail Firefox extension released by Gina Trapani comes the latest Lifehacker code: Better Flickr. Gina is a self-professed Flickr nut, so it was probably only a matter of time before she put something like this together.

There are an amazing number of Greasemonkey hacks and existing extensions to extend and improve on Flickr's built-in functionality. Gina's done a great job of honing on on the best ones, and including only those in her new extension.

For example, Better Gmail includes extra features that enable EXIF image information to show overlaid on an image if you leave the mouse pointer hovering on the image. There is a feature that adds more user links, and one that adds some rich editing capabilities to the text forms on Flickr. A couple more of the features include an instant magnifier, and one that turns the All Sizes link into a menu, so you can jump right to the size that interests you most.

Better Gmail requires Firefox on any operating system that will run it.
