Exactly as its name implies, the Tiny Menu extension allows you to compress your entire Firefox menu bar into one item. And, thanks to a recent update, that item is now even smaller. Setting up Tiny Menu isn't entirely intuitive, so I'll outline the steps to save you a bit of time:

1. Download and install Tiny Menu (don't forget to restart Firefox)
   
2. Click your 'new' menu (the M) and then select View > Toolbars > Customize...
   
3. One at a time (not that you have a choice) drag the items from your Navigation Toolbar into your menu bar until there's nothing left in the Navigation Toolbar
4. Click Done to return to the main Firefox window
   
5. Again, click your new menu and this time choose View > Toolbars > and then uncheck the Navigation Toolbar
   
6. Bask in the glory of your newly free pixels

I often find myself in a stealth-like combat zone (home) where secrecy and the element of surprise is priceless (blogging late at night). Darkness can often provide the best natural cover in a covert environment such as this. DarkAdapted will help take the bright edge off your computer screen by adjusting your gamma so you can continue to blog, work, or generally download stuff willy-nilly all night to your hearts content. If you're like me, you don't hit the fridge for a midnight snack, you're still up at midnight blogging, coding, designing, or snacking on downloads. If you must keep the monitor brightness on the down-low or the natives get restless, then DarkAdapted will be your friend. It comes with different colored presets and allows you to make your own with varying levels of brightness and color saturation for customizable gamma-based screen-darkening. It doesn't darken beyond what is readable, but helps to get the brightness down to a manageable level. Coupled with a darker Windows theme, DarkAdapted is perfect for the late night devious activities you have planned. All of you hacker-elite out there are asking why I don't just go and adjust my monitor for brightness and be done with it, right? The answer is that I don't like to mess with my monitor every dang time I want to darken it down a bit (which is daily). DarkAdapted also allows setting up a custom keystroke to bring your PC or Mac back to full brightness. You now effectively have an easy way to get the best of both worlds (light/darkness) with little to no futzing with your beloved behemoth display. It is easy to throw this app on your USB drive and take it with you since it doesn't install anything and lives in an executable. Trust me, the next time you're in a live-blogging in a foxhole and need it dark, you'll wish you had downloaded it.
