Downloadsquad Firefox Add-on Pack 2009 ready for subscription!
If you hadn't guessed from past posts, most of the bloggers here at Downloadsquad use Firefox - some of us more than others, of course, but it's still a trusted cross-platform tool.
Earlier today I showed you Mozilla's new Add-on Collector which makes it easy for anyone to do the whole "Fashion Your Firefox" thing. After going back to the comments you contributed to past Firefox add-on posts and firing off a few dozen mailing list messages to each other, we've put together our "inaugural collection," as it were.
The Downloadsquad Collection is now available for subscription!
What made the cut? Popular picks like AdBlock Plus, NoScript, Better Privacy, Greasemonkey,TabMix Plus, and DownThemAll, and some lesser-knowns like Amazon S3 Organizer, Textarea Cache, and Taboo.
Would it be too Google of us to slap a permanent Beta tag one this thing? You know, just in case you guys have a few hot additions we need to work in. But seriously...If we missed your favorite, tell us what it is and why we should add it!
Update: Thanks for the comments! Download Statusbar has been added, and we'll keep listening to your suggestions.
Remember, simply subscribing to a pack doesn't mean you'll end up with every single add-on. Just install the ones you like!

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
