I'd feel lost without all my add-ons... however I do have a clean install of Chrome for when I want light, fast browsing like you said!

Exactly... That's what i usually do :D
I just had to install xmarks
Since my main ones are not listed, I figure this is a good place for a 1st post.

Tree Style Tab - Replaces the standard Tabs with a tree style layout.

Vimperator - Removes the menu and toolbars, and allows mouseless browsing with Vim like keybindings.

SQLite Manager - Best SQLite database manager.

As for the flv downloaders, I find it easier to just grab the files from the cache.

In reply to George's question, here's the setup that helps me browse in Firefox on my Win7 touchscreen:

Tab Mix Plus - for advanced tab management (I made the selected tab have a strong blue colour)

Delicious Bookmarks - for syncing my bookmarks in the cloud and all my machines.

Cooliris - I rarely use it, but it's a lot of fun on my touchscreen.

Easy Drag To Go - drag an image or link to save them. Very useful for quickly saving images!

Readability - Click the button on a page to remove all distracting elements and keep the content in a big nice readable format.

Video DownloadHelper - Grab video files embedded in youTube and a huge list of obscure websites. Works on any QuickTime embeds as well.

Flashblock - blocks any Flash content until you click it. More security, less bandwidth use, less annoyance.

Firefox Showcase - gives you a big clickable list of live thumbnails for all your open tabs. You can load it in the sidebar, in a dedicated tab, or a separate window.

Konquefox - Adds buttons for Zoom in, Zoom out, and Reset zoom. I pinch the screen for zoom in and out, so I just use the Reset button.

Full Screen - adds a button and right-click menu item for toggling fullscreen. Usually I'd use F11, but on a touchscreen it's faster to click this button.

Stylish - to override a website's CSS with my own. I use it to skin Google Reader and other favourite websites of mine.

Context Search - select some text and you can instantly search for it in any of your search engines (the ones on the upper right)

Adblock Plus - disables all ads on almost all websites.

Tiny Menu - compacts the "File, Edit, View..." bar into one button.
firebug, a must add-on tool for web designers. I seriously cant work without it.

Found it really interesting and funny... And it's the most time wasting addon you'll ever encounter xD

Hope u'll like it.

Adblock Plus: Blocks ads. Simplifies the look of ads-bloated website and also reduces bandwidth usage.
