PicLens and Pencil
PicLens
Just fell in love with this one moments ago! I had installed its Firefox extension version “just like that” while browsing the Mozilla addons site. Half an hour back, Preshit sent me a Flickr link. I happened to click the run image on one of the photos and PicLens fired up as I watched. It jumped out of Firefox, took the entire screen and transformed the dull 2D view to a fullscreen 3D view. It made viewing the pics lot more easy and pleasurable. And I decided I like it.
Edit: PicLens is now Cooliris. See the comments.
Pencil
This one has been receiving quite some attention lately and I see why. Its a very simple and effective diagramming tool. Lets you create diagrams and UI prototypes in a jiffy. After having to switch tools when I switch OSes (and I do that once in a while to get a different experience), this one is a must-have extension for my fox. The stock stencils that come with it are good enough. And, I am eagerly waiting for more stencils to become available.
