For our everyday browsing, we in the Needmore Labs<\/strong> use Safari<\/a>. Fast, elegant, and nearly crash-proof, it is the most practical browser to run on your Mac. But there are a lot of things you cannot do with this browser, the biggest shortcoming being the inability to write really creative extensions.<\/p>\n

That is when you pull out Firefox<\/a>. It may not be as fast as Safari, it may not render fonts quite as well, and it does not look nearly as lovely or lickable<\/em> as an Apple program, but it makes up for these shortcomings with its expandability and better adherence to standards. And it can be made even better<\/em> with a few web designer must-have accessories:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Web Developer Extension Toolbar<\/a> by Chris Pedrick. So incredibly useful for understanding and stress-testing a site in development, I cannot remember life before this plugin.<\/li>\n
  2. The Google Toolbar<\/a>, finally for Firefox, and consequently finally on a Mac. The best way to learn about your PageRank. Enough said.<\/li>\n
  3. The DevBoi<\/a> sidebar. It shows all features of HTML, CSS, the DOM, XUL, and even Ruby and Rails. Double-click on any feature to get the official and detailed specs, including browser compatibility.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
